27 (D-35) Mardi Gras -- Street Music

New Orleans is Mardi Gras...and a lot of music in the streets at that time.  I introduced my students to Louisiana Mardi Gras in fact on February 17, 2015 which was Mardi Gras this year.  You'll need to return to the Uiad blog to see this information again.

Bourbon Street and Canal Street in New Orleans, where a lot of the excitement is:



Parades and floats on Canal Street.

In case you didn't listen to Fats Domino yesterday:
