My hubbie found this artist first! Now we all love him. He is a trumpet player (reminds me of my Dad when he would play his horn around the house) Chris' band was wonderful, no intermission, just played all the way through. We watched him in a Lafayette auditorium and it was up close and personal with a brand new sound system in the place. This was day two of our Louisiana weekend.
Yep he looked just like this!
You can google Botti Lafayette on youtube and see where he let a military wife come up on stage and play the drums during the last song. Her husband is in Iraq. So Chris wanted her husband to see her.
And yes.. he dated Katie at one point. Just a fun fact.
If you ever get the chance, go see him.
Second best part (1st the concert of course) Free parking, free champagne and a date night with my sister and brother-in-law from Baton Rouge.
Sounds like a great evening and a wonderful weekend getaway!

His Italia CD is absolutely amazing! It is my favorite to listen to when I am in the kitchen cooking. How fun to get to see him live! :-)
