Summertime is very slow in New Orleans... The heat keeps most people away.
Lots of clubs close down for at least a month during the summer.  When they
had the first SactchmoFest and it was such a success, the city decided to
make it an annual affair to bring in business.

A lot of the musicians go to Europe, South America, Australia, etc. during
the slow season.

For the schedule of events for this year's celebration, go to

BTW, Jim and are going again this year, as well as four members of Blue
Street JB and perhaps Meg Graf's schedule will permit a visit!  Any other
DJMLer's planning to attend?
