They were long days and crazy evenings of shooting concerts, parties, lounges and conventions, but looking back it was an awesome weekend filled with some nice images of some pretty great acts. It was fascinating to be in New Orleans right as the oil was going to was ashore and hear the local concern for the fresh seafood that governs nearly 60% of their economy. New Orleans didn’t need another disaster on its doorstep! We ate at a place called “Butcher“, which is attached to “Cochon,” where I tried 4 sandwiches, and every single one was close to the best sandwich I had ever eaten!
The superdome is huge and was pretty much full every night, including the smaller lounge stages on the 2nd floor that hosted smaller acts. I must have circled this arena several times.
Although I’m a not a Janet Jackson fan, you had to admire her performance and ability to entertain.
The leopard printed Keri Hilson and Jill Scott attended a late night dinner at “August” where I took a doggie bag home and was blown away by the quality of the steak and salad!
Frank is one of the nicest guys to work for, he maintains a sense of humor and friendly demeanor even after the long days we all worked. I papped him walking out of the super-dome for the last day. For more pictures of the festival go here.
