In New Orleans for Mardi Gras, some blacks assemble in various “Indian Tribes”. The dress is obviously splendid. There is some historical basis to the the custom. This music is Caribbean/Cajun/New Orleans something or other.
Well ya, I would not have guessed you being a zydeco fan. Of course, most all Cajun and later Zydeco originally begats from your frog neighbors to the north. So Katry, can you do the 2-step?
Spaceman,
I knew the roots of the music are partly, mainly perhaps, from the Caribbean, but the sound created with so many influences is different, a sound all its own. I like the rhythm of the music.

Nope, I can’t 2-step. I am a horrible dancer.
