Hey Ted:

This Saturday, 3:30 PM to 7:15 PM at the Showboat Casino in Atlantic City.
Come second line behind us up the aisles. No parasols, but some young kids,
older kids and assorted characters usually come along with us. Even those
with body piercing and tattoos.

Every Saturday Dec through February. Then every Mon, Wed, Thu, Sat, March
through November. A second band is there on the other days in the summer,
but they are not strictly a N.O. Marching Band all the time.

Or, if you are fond of New Orleans Burial Services and second lining around
the church, come to the Unitarian Church in Mt Airy PA (near Philly) this
Sunday. Barbone Street will be marching around the center after burying the
year 2005.

Cheers,
Steve (don't forget the beads) Barbone
