even though I am 66 years of age with a larger than average number
of miles on this rather worn carcass
my heart pounds
like a kid about to experience something new
as I turn on to Gentilly
I greet the parking lot guy (been parking here for years)
hand over thirty bucks and shoulder chair and cameras
for the three block walk to the gate
I am early because I know that the Acura stage
will get crowded as the young ones show up
for the latest teenage craze
I place my chair and then join friends down by the barrier (as close as we can get)
and wait and after a little
(that seems like a very long while)
the music starts with....New Orleans own Suspects
Wanda Rouzan
A signing singer
Jean Knight
The Dixie Cups
Wayne Toups with Zy de Cajun
