[Dixielandjazz] French Quarter Festival New Orleans

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

Thanks Dave to both you and Chas who answered me off-list.  I asked  the 
question because it seems I fairly often hear grumbles about how  there's no 
trad, or Dixieland or work for same in New Orleans.  So I  was just 
wonderin'.  Like, your answer implies, Chas mentioned that  the "trad" bands that 
were there were essentially local.  I'm not  taking issue with that, just 
restating it.  It's always a good, if somewhat  rare thing, to recognize hometown 
talent.
 
And I have found it difficult to find out where I can hear anything  
besides Preservation Hall on trips to New Orleans.

If  Louisiana still counts as being part of the USA, ( and what you  
mean  by "trad" is reasonable, )  yes!

http://www.fqfi.org/frenchquarterfest/itinerary/  hard to  tell on some  
of the artists, but here are some I know are more trad  than anything  
else.

Connie Jones,
Banu Gibson,
Dukes of  Dixieland,
Steve Pistorius and his Southern Syncopators,
New Orleans  Jazz Vipers,
Ingrid Lucia
Loose Marbles
Dan Vernhettes & The Hot  Shots  (Bunk revival, I think.)
Panorama
Eddie Baynard New Orleans  Classic Jazz Orchestra
Evan Christopher's Clarinet Road (maybe trad - maybe  more modern)
