St. Louis Hotel 10/24/09
We're in New Orleans in the French Quarter, and Bill Ritter and I had the great Kevin O'Day fill in on drums today for a wedding we performed music for at 1pm. The bride and groom held the ceremony in the same courtyard as the reception, so we needed to be set up by 9:30am. After they were pronounced husband and wife, we started up and played tons of New Orleans classics until 4pm. We packed up and left quickly, mostly due to another wedding which was about to use the same courtyard we performed in. Kevin O'Day had another wedding gig to get to a couple of blocks away with Walter Washington and Jack Cruz! Thanks Kevin for your skills!
