at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival!
It was about mid-morning in hot, sticky New Orleans and I needed something wet to jump-start my day. Upon entering Lucy's Retired Surfers Bar on Tchoupitoulas St., I saw this guy in a faded yellow Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses, guzzling a tall Bloody Mary, holding court with a bunch of unsavory-looking characters from Connecticut. "Who is THAT?" I whispered to the barkeep. "Careful what you say, son," he replied with equal parts awe and fear in his voice. "That, my friend, is Johnny Gumbo." Johnny Gumbo will appear nude at Johnny Gumbo's Nude Lounge upon special request, an event not for the faint of heart (or anyone who has just eaten). The first 100 women in attendance receive a signed Johnny Gumbo Piano Shirt (the second 100 receive TWO signed shirts). |

Currently in Mexico rehearsing for the new show. It'll take your breath away!! The shirt is being taken out of the case and primed.
