JASS FEST! 2023
It’s the first day after Jazz Fest 2023, and the streets are still hot, with lots of after-fest shows at the Maple Leaf and various venues. I’m preparing for the upcoming Cure concert, of which iv been a lifetime fan. There’s nothing better than Robert Smith, the creator of Goth (which he’d disagree with), starting a tour in New Orleans, the most gothic city in (The USA?)New Orleans. Yes, once upon a time, mostly in high school and while at Full Sail, I was a Typo-Negative, Bauhaus, Cure raving goth, meaning multiple shades of black. Now I’m a little more colorful, and my favorite observation after Jazz Fest is that it is undoubtedly the most colorful festival of all. It’s hard to describe to others, but my lighting friends would agree. Even though Jazz Fest is during the day, the mental light show and the colorful crowds are spectacular, much like Electric Daisy Carnival during the daytime.
Attending a seven-day music fest takes planning ahead of time and studying...
