New Orleans Dopers (or anyone else) ... I need your help

[Chef_Troy]

I just read this excerpt from a news item about Louis Armstrong:

Organizers of the four-day Satchmo Summerfest that runs here from Aug. 2-5 will open the events with a ceremony renaming New Orleans International Airport for ol’ Pops. On the night of Armstrong’s birthday, Ellis Marsalis, along with performing sons Branford, Delfeayo, Jason and Wynton, will put on a show at the University of New Orleans, where Ellis has taught jazz since 1989. Joining them will be Harry Connick Jr., one of the elder Marsalis’ former students at the city’s arts and music high school.

I want more than anything to be present at this show but there’s no way it’s going to happen. Does anyone know if this is going to be taped for later sale, or simulcast on cable somewhere? Can someone local find out for me? I would be thrilled to pay for a concert like this on DVD if it’s going to be offered.

Cheffie, I’ve put in a few calls to UNO. I’m waiting for a call-back at this point.

I’m leaving town for a few days next week, however, and will be out the entire first week of August. (Goin’ to Maine - nyahh, nyahh, nyahh.) As such, it’s quite possible that I’ll not be here when (if?) someone calls. If you don’t hear from me, call UNO Development (504) 280-6394.
