Since funding for the arts has been deleted from schools, why not each one teach one?thumbsup
Hey "no ssl yet"! Totally off topic.... Are you back in town? Doin' alright? How bad did Katrina mess up uptown? I lived off St. Charles and Carrollton when I was at Loyola. Grew up in Kenner. How about Benny's and The Maple Leaf? Damn I miss NO..

Back on topic....sort of... New Orleans was THE BEST place in the world for a music education, IMHO. I had band every day in public school from sixth grade on up. Plenty of clubs in which to play. Great variety, too. Older cats were always encouraging and giving yet, at the same time, on your ass if they knew you were slackin'.
