Going to New Orleans

Sorry mom, I still really want to go to the New Orleans Jazz fest. I want to be there for the last day of it - Sunday May 7th, to see Paul Simon and then Fats Domino in the evening, but spend the rest of the day taking in unknown acts. I could leave Friday night after work, drive all evening. Stay Saturday and sunday night, drive back monday. I'd only need to take 1 day off of work. So, am I crazy if I go, or crazy if I don't go? A) I've always wanted to see New Orleans. All my favorite musicians sing about it, writers tell about it, etc. B) Plus I've never been on the bayou. What a great road trip to go on south. C) As far as the weather goes, its the perfect time right now. D) I wont regret going, its not going that I will be sad about. E) They need tourists dollars, and to not let the culture of music and legend die out. F) Nobody's worried about crime right now, just about getting things back to normal. G) I need some excitement and travel in my life. My spirits are dragging. So, consider this post like a notice at a bulletin board. Who wants to go with me? All I need is a fellow music lover to sit shot gun, and I'm there. Think of the sweet playlists to be made for a trip like this.
