Beat the Monday Blues with Music!!

Happy Monday everybody and if hope you're lucky enough to be enjoying a long weekend.....unlike me :(   But no frowning...there's fun stuff gong on!!

Head on down to a free concert at Tulane University Center Quad at 8:00 pm for Local Natives + Ruby Suns + Union Line it's fun and it's FREE!!  And if you happen to be looking for some music at lunchtime tomorrow head back over to the Quad at noon for The New Orleans Jazz Orchestra’s 4th Annual Porch Party featuring Glen David Andrews with some special guests!!!  (remember Porch Party is tomorrow ;)

Now this sounds pretty cool!!  It's 10 X 10 => 11 with Dave Easley....10:00 pm at the Zeitgeist Multi-Disciplinary Arts Center (1618 Oretha Castle Haley)....Internationally renowned Swiss artists and musicians Simon Berz and Kaspar Koenig along with filmmaker Michelle Ettlin will have a 10 day/night residency at Zeitgeist. Each day they will search the streets for trash accompanied by area musicians. They will bring it back to Zeitgeist and build instruments from trash. Each evening they will perform a concert with the new instruments, inviting local musicians to join them. The entire residency will be filmed for a feature-length documentary.  Artists interested in participating should contact Rene @ 504 352-1150 or rene@zeitgeistinc.net.
