Head over to the Louisiana Music Factory before 2 PM because when Galactic hits, the place is going to be so jammed, you won’t be able to get in the door. They are preceded by John Autin at noon and the Washboard Chaz Blues Trio at 1 PM. Billy Iuso, James Andrews, Gal Holiday and Big Chief Monk Boudreaux follow on the hour.
Tuesday night is the Threadhead Patry (no that’s not a typo- it’s a long story). The Threadheads are a group of Jazz Fest devotees who morphed into a philanthropic organization after Katrina. They have assisted over twenty musicians and bands in their efforts to record and distribute their music. The patry features numerous artists on the Threadhead roster. Click the link for more details.
