A note to tourists

Music is a terrific souvenir of New Orleans, but if you buy a Cajun or zydeco cd, you’re getting a souvenir of LaFayette, which is the heart of Cajun country. There’s some sort of mass confusion about the subject, and most tourists I speak to don’t really understand what the difference is. I don’t blame them

    An absolutely necessary post! If only we could put a copy of it in every hotel room in the city.

    Thank you!
