This is Ben Cattle's back. I like Ben Cattle's back for several reasons. First, he's a great guy, a fine friend, a master musicologist, a renaissance man extraordinaire, and beautiful human being, among other things. Second, he also has great taste in colorful shirts which are not only fun to look at, but also easy to find in a big crowd. But the real reason I like Ben Cattle's back so much, is that when I'm looking at it, I am always near the front of a stage at the New Orleans Jazzfest, I've usually just had a good meal, am about to have another one, and I'm hanging with Ben.
The jazz tent moved, next to the blues tent, and that's where the day
started with Brian Seeger and the Gentilly Groovemasters, great six
piece energized set to fuel the early smiles of the second weekend
kickoff. Noon gospel tent righteousness. Escape out of the biblical
rain for a 3 band run at the economy hall tent. Palm court jazz band,
Mark Broad, then the Last Straws were a fantastic combination of old
dixieland banjo strumming, clarinet solos and more to ride out the
storm. Dirty Dozen Brass band at Congo, then final show strategic
attacks on ZZ Top, Counting Crows and George Benson, all in fine form.
