New Orleans music
Have one evening (Friday) to hear some music. Looking at Pat O'Brians piano bar, Lafiette Blacksmith Shop bar and Spotted Cat.

Recommendations? other suggestions?

Check this out - we saw a really nice performance, and it was free! Don't think they are all free, but we saw one put on by NPS.

We loved Preservation Hall. Isn't in next to O'Brians?

Spotted Cat is good. I'd just wander down Frenchman st and stop in when I heard something good.

See if
The Soul Rebels
Trombone Shorty or
Irwin Mayfield

are playing that night. Usually they are not in NOLA on Fridays but if they are they are great, great performers.
