Music is a huge part of our life! Living in New Orleans, we have great music options, for pretty cheap, every night of the week. Our favorite local band, Papa Grows Funk, is playing the reception.
We also like to travel for music. We drove just south of Milwaukee (Alpine Valley) this summer for a couple of Phish shows. And we try to make at least 2 trips each year to see Widespread Panic. In April, we see them for a 3 night run in Orange Beach, AL. And in the fall, we always go to Birmingham, AL. Yes – all our vacations revolve around music!
Our annual Birmingham shows were this past weekend, only this year the Band is touring with the Allman Brothers, which was a great treat to see both bands, both nights with some great sit-ins on each. Greg Allman was spot on.
We had a great time with New Orleans friends and those we really only see during shows.
They are planing in Houston this weekend. Matt is itching to go since it would be so easy, but we will see them again in 2 weeks at Voodoo Fest (2 blocks from our house).
