The Music.

Music is everywhere in New Orleans. There is always a festival happening, a live band playing, or a street musician performing. It is a city with a soundtrack, and hearing and enjoying the different kinds of music really colors the experience.

On Saturday we hopped on the Canal Street streetcar and headed up to City Park, the site of this year's Voodoo Music Experience. After listening to a few bands and waiting on colossal, horrendous bathroom lines, we finally got to see what we came for.

So, was Ben Harper good in concert? How many other bands were there? How long was the concert? Worth the trip? Etc. etc.etc....

He was unbelievably awesome. There were alot of bands, maybe 50 throughout the weekend. We also saw Motion City Soundtrack and Sinead O'Connor. The Smashing Pumpkins were on after Ben but we took off before it got too dark (the streetcar was about to turn into a pumpkin!)It was worth the trip!
