You have no idea how you’ve lifted my spirits this evening...I mean, Dixie Cups Iko Iko!!!! It’s been a long time since I’ve heard that one...another world ago.
This is going to sound weird and kind of out of the blue, but...I wonder if the (so-called) star witness in the Zimmerman trial has ever heard even one of these wonderful songs?

Although I am too young to have been in Vietnam here is a song that some of the vets I know said were popular over there
Fats Domino is from NOLA and he still lives here. His piano was ruined by Katrina and it was just recently restored and given back to him. He does not perform anymore but he still makes public appearances.
