October 3, 201411 yr Hi Wiley. Pre Katrina. You knew the answer to that, Wiley. The diaspora of FUNK because those neighbourhoods got washed away by the Levee failure and the influx of rich white people has changed everything...it looks every day more and more like Suburban America or Disneyland :(
October 3, 201411 yr my favourite thing about NOLA is the light and what is left of the funk. I love that I can still hear a brass band on a random morning pass right outside my door. I grew up in Tennessee, Florida, Maryland, Massachusetts , upstate New York, New Hampshire, California, and Wicklow, Ireland for 8th grade. (not Military...we don't exactly know what Daddy did) As an adult, I have lived in California: Venice (L.A), San Francisco, Sonoma County and Monterey County Louisiana: New Orleans (Uptown, French Quarter, Marigny and Upper Ninth Ward) also a year near Morgan City UK: Brockley in South London, Aldeburgh (Suffolk) and 1973-1976 traveled with First Husband in a 1961 VW Van crisscrossing the US 4? times
October 3, 201411 yr I love New Orleans, Ava, and as a matter of fact, I DID see you in '96 . Yes, I am Sure it was you. Didn't you see how Wildly I waved ? But, you...you turned your head in a most sublime manner and gazed out towards the River and I walked slowly home. edited to add. I loved living in the quiet parts of the French Quarter. Stayed in an apartment once that was smack dab in the whirl and really LOUD from the street, that was difficult.
