Merry Mardi Gras! Go listen to Dr. John (see above)! Go listen to Louis Prima! Go listen to Fats Domino! Go listen to this Dead & Co. show! Go listen to this twenty-minute "Ain't No Use" jam from the Meters!
Go watch Down by Law! Go watch King Creole! Don't watch Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh! Go read A Confederacy of Dunces! Go read "What's the Score?" by Ted O'Brien!
You have your orders! Speaking of spooky places . . .
