So is anyone going to Voodoo fest this year?

You know, that "other" music festival they have in New Orleans around Halloween?

Because, well, if you are, it looks like I'll be there. On stage, no less!

As it happens, I have recently joined a new band (though I continue to play with my old one), called Brass Bed, who just got booked to play (on a small, sponsored side stage) the festival this year!

That's kind of exciting!

Anyway, yeah. Any SBer's planning to attend? There are some pretty good acts this year (which is rare), like Wilco, Spoon, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Quintron & Ms. Pussycat. And the New Pornographers are playing a few days after the festival in New Orleans, too!

Rage Against the Machine and the Smashing Pumpkins are also playing, for the still-in-high-school or still-in-high-school-at-heart set.

That was kind of mean. Anyway, yeah! Anyone'll be there?

Wait didn't Rage break up?

Also, New Orleans is the opposite side of america from me or i would support the toups.

Fuck, this isn't something I could conceivably check on at work the week before to see if I have to cater any parties that day, is it? This is the sort of shit I'd have to buy tickets in advance for.

Toups, please post a thread when you will be playing at some joint that I could conceivably just drive down 1-10 for a few hours to get to and hand a doorguy some cash without the hassle of making arragements in advance.

Also, it would be cool if you sold CDs at the show.

i would like to come since i live in baton rouge, but being a poor college student who can't justify $40 for a one-day ticket sucks. but since i live so close i should come to one of your other shows!

by the way, are you (or are you related to) the toups of the barnaby puffington? i <3 them.

I actually was there, I should check this fourm more often :( Rage was good, Smashing Pumpkins Sucked hard, and there was far too many things for that other haunted house in town (I work at House of Shock)

The Mortuary, it's owned by the same people that own um..damn can't of the name of it, the one on the northshore..oh scream factory. they had sooo many fucking tv spots this year, went by there a week before we opened...and it wasn't very good. Like Fodi's was better. it was nice seeing chincuba back this year tho.
