Chance in his fort
We spent most of the time in the tent since that is where I was volunteering but we were able to walk around a little bit to listen to some music. We heard our favorite songs by Mumford and Sons and The Avett Brothers and some of Keb Mo's set as well not to mention all the other local people that were filling all the smaller stages around the festival.
Another cool thing I was able to do while at Jazz Fest was get the cast of Treme to sign Chance's hat. If you remember back last year they shot a few scenes of the HBO show Treme near our house. The catering was actually set up right outside our door. Well, we watched them doing their thing and Chance was playing with the security guys the whole time. At the end one of the guys went to his truck and came back with this floppy hat just like the one he was wearing but in a little kid size. So that is the hat I had the cast sign, they were all very nice and liked the story of the hat they also signed a poster for him.
In case you have never seen Treme it is on HBO and is set right after Katrina here in New Orleans. I have two codes left that will get you the first two episodes free on iTunes if anyone is interested in checking it out just let me know and I will send you the code.
