New Orleans is a city you visit but not one you live in

We may not be e-friends but you know you enjoy NOLA music. No one can be mad during Carnival.

Nice. What do you play?

Guitar. I know leo nocentelli has become kind of an asshole (maybe he always was) but he was one of my idols coming up.

I have been to New Orleans 4 times, once for Mardi Gras. I was a sheik and I went with Elvira and Minnie Mouse. We all slept in the same bed

New Orleans is truly a shithole. It's unbearable in the spring and summer and humid all year long. It fucking smells. You risk your life traveling from the airport to the french quarter and hope your car doesnt break down. The French quarter is 3 blocks of fabricated tourist attraction. Every restaurant and bar is filthy. The police are more corrupt than Chicago or Boston, if that's even possible

Awesome, I am about to buy a guitar. I have only played clarinet when I was young, but I always wanted to play guitar. I am probably going to suck, but I feel like it can be an outlet for me. I have always wanted to be a musician. Dont have the talent, but I just always wanted to do it. I was a big promoter of live bands at a restaurant/bar I used to run. I am going to get it back up when I open my spot. I thoroughly enjoy no name talent trying to get their name out there.

Sounds like you need a better car

Last few times I've been there it was a great time. There were some shady interactions but I didn't share your experience

I might suggest bass guitar, not h8n

Been to it. Didnt go this year. Have some friends in it. I used to ride in Endymion. My family rode for 30 years and I rode for 3, but I ran my course with it. I think about getting back into it every now and then, but then I think about how much I like not dropping 10k to ride. But, anyone ever gets the chance one time. Do it. One of the best experiences of my life.

agreed. NOLA gets a bad rap for the spring break/mardi gras contingent. I trust my friends who love living there, and we love visiting them, but they avoid the quarter, usually, and show us the good parts. they also loved it enough to come back after losing their shit in Katrina.

that said, we could never deal with that humidity year-round. I thought I was going to die in City Park in July.

I also must respectfully disagree with hhm about starting with bass, at least if you aren’t a poseur and don’t play with a pick. I played bass on one song and used my fingers like a proper pretentious asshole and got a blood blister.
