This is for all non-EC or peripheral-EC topics. We all know how much we love talking about 'The Man' but sometimes we have other interests.

Line-up is up. Elvis is not on it, but there are many good artists to see.

Looks good! Wish I could go.


Is it just me, or have we lost some Eagles?

Nice place to enjoy a Vieux Carré:

One of the most delicious cocktails I've ever mixed, with the help of my wonderful new and first ever bottle of Peychaud's bitters.

Or this on the patio out back courtesy of Sir Kingsley Amis- a favorite for me as I do love raspberries:

The Dizzy Lizzy

4oz. Chambery
1 teaspoon framboise
1 teaspoon cognac
1 small shake Angostura bitters
Ice cubes

Mix with the ice and then remove it and serve- Delicious and I swear after a few I hear John Lennon singing the appropriate song.

Remember:

"If I had a thousand sons, the first human principle I would teach them should be, to foreswear thin potations"

Shakespeare Falstaff Henry 1V, part 2
"....there's a merry song that starts in 'I' and ends in 'You', as many famous pop songs do....'

alternatively, you could just go all Jimmy Buffett and "play for gumbo."
