Re: Festivals Acadiens

I listened to the Festival Acadians on KRVS that weekend as I worked around my garage. They had a booth there that they kept mentioning how it was so nice to be right in the middle of everything, and they'd jump around to different stages to let the listening audience hear a variety of musicians. I caught about 2 hours of the program but that's about it. It was ok. I didn't hear anything nor any certain band or song that made me cry nor run to grab my accordion in uncontrollable excitement to play along. In other words, it was a sort of blah-zey affair for me that day. Just like any other Sunday. I did hear some chic singing some crazy stuff during that 2 hours, and that sealed it for me. They, "the organizers" are already importing foreignors to perform in place of the Cajuns. The writing is on the wall and ....."I SAW IT FIRST AND SCREAMED IT TO THE WORLD"

I digress, did anyone happen to catch the prices this year for a small, medium, and large bowl of gumbo? I'm trying to keep records on this matter so I can sue them for price gouging the people..... eventually.
