Hi NICAR friends! My friend with whom I'm staying suggested checking out an all-woman brass band called the Original Pinettes who play every Friday.
The band's Wikipedia entry (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Original_Pinettes_Brass_Band) says the Pinettes are the only all-woman brass band in New Orleans, started when the members were at a Catholic Girls school, and persisted as a band despite being disrupted by relocation caused by Katrina.
Here's the details:
Friday, March 6, 2020
Bullet's Sports Bar
2441 A P Tureaud Ave.
New Orleans, LA 70119
9pm [my friend said 10pm]
$10 cover [I think]
