So after the work of the festival was done I ended up at this after event almost nobody seemed to know about, involving the family of the late great Clifton Chenier, where I met his niece who was magical. The bands were channelling Clifton and it was amazing. I have not seen anything like this in a city venue in several years, and I am blown away, as they say, and entirely satisfied.
Axé.
