Friday night in New Orleans is going to rock! Kid Rock and Lynyrd Skynyrd will be kicking off their tour in the Crescent City. After almost forty years and a whopping 65 albums, Lynyrd Skynyrd will still be playing the old favorites that their fans love to hear. Many of the band members are original. Of course, Johnny Van Zant replaced Ronnie Van Zant, the lead singer who died in an airplane crash over Mississippi in 1977. The band are still firm favorites, especially in the South. It should be an awesome night.

Musicians from Louisiana and beyond have written an open letter to this years presidential candidates urging them not to forget the Big Easy. The crux of the letter explains the urgent need for commitment to rebuilding and maintaining the Louisiana wetlands. Twenty five square miles of wetlands disappear every year, equivalent to a football field size area gone every 30 minutes. This is a vital and worthwhile cause. I'm sure the candidates will be eager to get behind it.
