Week of 4/19 - 4/20
Friday night we played the Tomato Festival at Our Lady of Prompt Succor in Chalmette. Another one of the many fairs / festivals we've had the honor of playing for many years. Such a beautiful night with a packed fair grounds. It was great to see a lot of friends from that area as we don't usually play in da parish but maybe 2 or 3 times a year. We want to thank the organizers of the festival as well for all the great food on our break. Saturday afternoon we played a wedding at Chateau Estates Country Club. (We should probably just leave a set of equipment there. It seems we play a lot of functions at Chateau… thank you very much) Seems like it's been some time since last we played a daytime wedding too. But we had to be there very early as the ceremony was right in front of the stage. "What do you mean we can't be setting up while you guys are saying your wedding vows?" A great afternoon party. Usually day weddings are a bit of a challenge. Congratulations to "Our newlyweds Jenn & Dom". I usually acknowledge the couples name the exact way they wanted to be introduced and… that's what Jenn & Dom wanted. We're off and will return to work on Sunday playing the Italian Festival in Tickfaw. Hoping we'll see you there.
