To get you in the Mardi Gras mood you have to listen to a little Washboard Chaz.  Jeremy and I saw Chaz last time we were in NOLA at this exact place, The Spotted Cat.  I loooove this guy, he is amazing, you have to listen to my favorite song on his Mix It UpCD- Busy Bootin, this is what it's all about!:)
