In New Orleans today is Lundi Gras. Can't tell you much about how that's going, because I'm way off in Tbilisi, Georgia slowly overcoming jet lag. It's an absolutely beautiful city, full of color, amazing landscapes, and a wild mix of new and old architecture. They're very in touch with their native culture, and they've got a lot of really cool old cars. I've tried to find any shred of instro music that might have come out of here and my research has been completely fruitless. Guess Dick Dale wasn't a hit in the Soviet Union. But at some point I'm going to seek out a flea market with my portable turntable and we'll see what we can see. Going to be tough considering that Georgian has a completely different alphabet and Russian records will be in cyrillic.
Anyway, back in the states I have a sub doing my show this week. Please call in and tell her how much you like it!
