FADE IN: Billy sitting alone at a table at a cafe in New Orleans under a single light, that even though it’s noon, illuminates only him. A cigarette dangles from his mouth, channeling William Shatner… or is it Stewie?
“She packed my bags… last night… pre-flight….
Zero hour… 5…. pm…
And I’m gonna be…
HIGH…
as a kite… by then….”
That is, unless Tropical Storm Ida has other plans for me.
It’s been a great trip back to New Orleans again for the Octavia Art Gallery show last Saturday night. Although I’ve spent much more time working than playing this visit.
I brought a portable drive with work that seems to follow me around these days. But, if I have to be working, New Orleans is a lovely change of venue. Here’s another photo from the opening, featuring the lovely Trixie Minx.
