Giggles, I presume that JJ is playing Saturday....is he playing solo? also, if Trombone Shorty plays Saturday as well, worth your while to catch..they opened for MOFRO and they were awesome.

Eric Lindell is fantastic, too! I still don't understand - a crawfish fest in NJ? Do they ship 'em in from Louisiana? If not, they ain't worth eatin'. Giggles, I hope you peel, pinch, and suck before the show. Or at the show. Or after the show. :-)

Oh Hell NO! Crawfish look like glorified insects and just the thought of ripping the head off and sucking the gut juices out of a water bug makes my stomach roil. I'm going for the music not the eats :p

I just happen to know what a clam roll and a lobster roll are because of a visit to Cape Cod once. 'Round here they're po'boys. Clay, I ain't never slapped a crawfish on some white bread before, but I'm open to that possibility. However, my problem is once I get 'em peeled, I just eat em. The tails don't sit around very long waiting to be placed in another dish!

Impressive food and music! You'd better sample the food, giggles! And be sure to check out the other bands! Lots of Louisiana love there!

Well here's some interesting stuff. First, after not having his harps the night before in Philly JJ either got 'em shipped, borrowed some, or bought some.

And do my eyes deceive me or is that a brand spanking new drum kit (with NO duct tape) that AC is playing? And indeed Anthony is playing JJ's keyboards. COOL!

This is Ho Cake. It's all good. Daryl busts a solo loose early on that's better than a buzz. The guys on horns are killing.

Hell, I must have been standing right next to whoever took these videos. I've got a few still shots from my Blackberry that I'll email you, Clay.

It was a great show by the way. First time I got to see Van Battle play with them and it definitely adds another layer to the sound.

I just was watching the "Mojo" video and the hat you see on the left is my buddy's and then when the camera pans left to see Darryl you can see the brim of my hat as well.

That's way cool DA. I had that happen to me one time and it was a little freaky cause I knew I was right there but I don't remember anyone videotaping it.

Yeah I've seen Van with them 3, maybe 4 times and he does bring some nice sound to the scene.

Send them pics when you've got time and I'll pop 'em up.
