Good morning my friends. Today's show is mostly a memorial second line for two great musicians. They're not widely known outside of New Orleans, but they were each loved by their fans and colleagues in NOLA.

Let's rock!

That's really great. Most of the national acts I have seen listed so far I'm pretty meh on, but so much local music! What a treat. We'll have to do it one of these years.

The only thing I know about Vampire Weekend is that they were the answer to a trivia question I got wrong and they seem to have a record up in the window of our local extremely Brooklyn cafe and record shop.
