Into the Land of Soul

Notice to all readers- do not be afraid, but there will be a weeklong break in posting, as I will be down in Slidell, Louisiana with Habitat For Humanity, working on Katrina-affected areas. This suburb of New Orleans is just across the bay, north of the city, but it right along the coast, and was badly damaged. I have no idea what kind of conditions our group from UHa will be working in, but hopefully we will be able to accomplish a lot. Upon the slight chance there is internet available, I'll try and post up some interesting pictures. Not to mention the 22 hour bus ride. How is this music related? It just so happens that on our break day, wednesday, we are going to wander around downtown New Orleans. First stop: The House of Blues. Just to see this landmark venue will be awesome in itself, not to mention it's setting in the heart of New Orleans. I'm also interested in seeing if the famous Burbon St. musicians will be out, busting out some soulful grooves.
