Joe Barth Jazz Band, Slippery Rock, PA

I have been off the music blogging trail for awhile but I thought Fat Tuesday deserved at least a little attention. I couldn't be in NOLA for Fat Tuesday so the best alternative I could find locally was at North Country Brewery in Slippery Rock, PA. I got there early to get a seat and eat some horrible gumbo (I should learn never to eat cajun food prepared in PA). The band on this night was the Joe Barth band and they did a nice job performing some Dixieland jazz. It wasn't NOLA but it was alright.

By the way, would it kill them to buy some flats so the bands that play there are elevated a little bit.

The people of Slippery Rock did their best to dress up for Fat Tuesday.

Joe Harry and Mark Tarcy have a deep and meaningful discussion while drinking beer.

The excitement never ends on Fat Tuesday.
