[from New Orleans] as the name would suggest, they mix
zydeco with punk – Rockboy foresaw Pogues and I foresaw gypsy punk, and that’s
about exactly what we got – they were terrific – very Gogol Bordello – lots of
passion – they’d played a show until 3am the night before and were at this show
by mid-morning – this was the best venue of the whole festival, just a field –
no bureaucracy, tons of good food stands, and everybody mellow in their little
fold out chairs – we started feeling like locals once we picked ourselves up
some of those chairs and settled in with the middle aged folks – this band
inspired some truly creative dancing from the audience – the kind of band you’d
want to have at your wedding, even if you’re not Greek or Jewish
