Description This was taken at Preservation Hall in New Orleans, a small concert hall off Bourbon St. that is old, decrepet, dirty, and can only fit about 30-40 people at most. When I visited this summer, I checked it out the first night and went back the next 3 in a row. It was an amazing place where one can truly experience real live jazz. Amazing music, amazing area, great photo op. More to come in this vein. Enjoy!

Marvelous! I always enjoy watching this type of picture, where people still live first hand marvelous things, like jazz, in such magical places, where words only seem to describe the experience as "supernatural". Marvelous picture

Hello Zac - This is a great image! Joe and I were there ~20 yrs ago. Doesn't look like it changed much. Very nice!
