Satchmo Summer Fest

More great music in New Orleans! This event is a tribute to Louis 'Satchmo' Armstrong and held at the Old U.S. Mint. I was really excited about the venue because the Mint was open for touring and I have otherwise noticed that it has irregular hours that are usually inconvenient for my schedule.

Fritzel's House Band - one of my favorite New Orleans bar bands - played this event! Despite the thunder, lightening, and rain that interrupted the event, my fellow seconded SoCal co-worker and I had a blast!
