I'll always remember my trip to New Orleans. It was one of the very few times I ever got completely wasted. I mean, I was drinking little test tubes of something that were being handed out and going into any place that looked active and had music blaring. I don't even know how I got back to the hotel.

@nottovision fo show!) Is he solo or what?

Nigel:

Nigel Hall is an honest, humble guardian of soul music. When asked about himself, Nigel reflects, "I'm just someone who lives, eats, drinks music." This ethic becomes clear when Nigel takes the stage. A mainstay on the Portland, ME scene, Nigel has recently toured with the funk powerhouse Lettuce. His energetic vocals add yet another layer of sonic depth and energy to the all star cast. Nigel is also an established keyboardist, currently working in the studio with Chapter 2, featuring Eric Krasno, Adam Deitch, and Louis Kato.

Given the proclivities of this group, do you really think putting out such a speculative question is a good idea? Or do you already know something (that, of course, you can't/won't share?)

[Tusk]

not sure what you mean by proclivities, I'm just connecting dots, who does Haley know in New Orleans?.... It ended up being something the last time she was there with her folks.....

someone did say they received an email that Irvin might have something going on in NOLA, though maybe unrelated to why Haley's there, he always seems to be involved in something, busy man... I didn't pursue it further, might have misunderstood...

Tusk, I might have misunderstood your statement as well.

Irvin just had an event on the 25th of Feb,
New Orleans Jazz Orchestra celebrates start of construction of its Central City headquarters



So maybe that was the event that the email was referring. Most of the time, unless it's to go home, Haley's trips have been related to work in some way. It would not surprise me if this is the case as well (all speculation based on observables )

So, who knows, eh? But it's not like Haley hasn't been to NOLA recently Perhaps Irvin told her she has just got to come during Mardi Gras for the big party and he offered to make sure she has a good time. Or something else. Time to operationalize those proclivities.

Other famous will be there...

@HaleyReinhart apparently Q Tarantino is going to be in parade in NOLA too, hit him up 4 a part in his next movie

British actor Hugh Laurie, who starred for eight years in Fox's hospital mystery drama "House," will serve as the Krewe of Bacchus' celebrity monarch when that parade rolls Sunday evening, and actor-director Quentin Tarantino will reign as the Krewe of Orpheus' celebrity monarch Monday night.

Here's another possibility... (connections)

Drummer,Shannon Powell, the gentleman who sang with Haley and Casey on "Hit the Road Jack" at Carnegie Hall, will be performing @ Irvin Mayfield’s Jazz Playhouse tonight... So at least two connections, Irvin and Mr. Powell might put her in Irvin's venue ....


You could count Chrissy Miller, the lady in red, and also was at Haley's first meeting with Irvin (GBTC NOLA) as a third connection for Haley to be there, though you could argue that Chrissy and Irvin should count as one connection


(If you recall, Mr. Powell was in line with me when I went to go pick up my tickets at Carnegie's Will Call... He was complaining about how long the line was taking, and holding a feather adorned tambourine LOL
A lady eventually came and escorted him backstage)

[john]

^ She has those connections, but if she were going to perform why wouldn't they publicize that fact?
