Patrick, great photos of CC & Lucky ! But I don't recall seeing any yellow cars on stage so
where was it taken ? He looks like he's posing just for you !
Cheers, Don

I'd love to see The Promised Land A Swamp Pop Journey but haven't been able to track it down.
Does anyone know of it's availability or whether it's on DVD ?
Cheers , Don

Here's a clip from the NO Jazzfest and if I knew how to do it I'd post the accompanying photo, but you can check it out here: http://stevensonblog.blogs.tuscaloosanews.com/12422/jazz-fest-elvis-was-in-the-building/?pa=all&tc=pgall&tc=ar . Doesn't look as if CC has picked up a razor any time lately !
Cheers, Don

"The other stand-out show was the Lil Band of Gold’s gig Thursday at the House of Blues Parrish. It was a tribute by the Lafayette Swamp Pop super-group to the late Cajun song-writer Bobby Charles (“Walking to New Orleans;” “See You Later Alligator”) and in addition to a packed house, attracted guest stars Dr. John, John Cleary, Shannon McNally and even Elvis Costello, who belted out several Charles numbers and hung around for the encores in the packed house.
The show lasted more than two hours and is already legendary around town".

It's easy after the first time

1) Have the forum in one window, signed in, and opened to the correct thread, and press Add Reply button

2) Have the photo you'd like copied in another window, right click mouse in the photos centre - a drop down menu should appear
Select Copy Image Location

3) Go back to forum window and select the tiny icon of mountain and sun
So you get this [ img][/ img] then place the curser in the middle of the two bracket sets and right click again
Select Paste Your photo should be there if you look at preview, press post when you've finished.



Advanced lesson:
The above instructions Hot Wire the photo directly from the web site, occasionally the owner may not appreciate the extra USAGE charge and either remove or rarer replace with something very embarrassing. But generally its not worth going to the trouble using a photo sharing board.

Thanks Don, great article. Remember Warren Storm belting out another great Bobby Charles song, I Don't Wanna Know at bluesfest? And how about Dave Alvin? Imagine Cindy Cashdollar and Sonny Landreth jamming together? Rock 'n Bowl, no other venue like it on the planet.
