We came, we ate, we Jazz Fest-Ed! Closing out the last day of the festival was the sounds of The Neville Brothers, Bo Dollis and the Wild Magnolias and Rockin Dopsie, Jr. and the Zydeco Twisters. We ate our last bite of crawfish strudel, alligator pie, oyster bisque and mango freeze. We enjoyed yet another Gospel Tent wedding, the crew of Treme filming the Fais Do Do dance parties and we even enjoyed the sudden bout of rain! Jazz Fest 2012 has come and gone, and we anxiously await the line-up for next year!
