King Khan & BBQ tour: NEW ORLEANS Part 1

okay okay okay okay okay okay okay I know! It's been way too long. But here it is coming atcha in several parts. I only have pics from certain towns, so sorry if I skip out on you... But I assure you we had fun no matter where we were!

New Orleans...
OKAY this was a party. We played at Spellcaster Lodge which is Quintron and Miss Pussycat's place. It's hard to describe how incredibly awesome this place is but take a gander at their website and it might help a bit to get an idea. That and these pictures.

Pre show... gettin' ready to roll. and rock.

The Lodge has two stages, the red stage and the blue stage. (We all played the red stage, and here Quintron has his stuff set up on the blue stage. )

Quintron drove the ship from the captain's station... also DJed some tropical lounge jams. There is an intercom system hooked throughout and he would announce things like "Hello everyone and welcome to the Spellcaster Lounge. Up next the best band in the entire world THOSE DARLINS followed by..." Well, something like that.

I put my voodoo eyes on.


So this place promplty packed up... and by that I mean PACKED UP. It was literally as full as it could possibly be. It was hot, sweaty, and magical. Get ready for some blurry sweaty magical pictures!

THIS PRETTY MUCH DESCRIBES THE WHOLE NIGHT. I don't know what it is. I'm pretty sure its some voodoo shit. -j

Its easy to get sucked down deep into the vortex of the Spellcaster. Also just as easily, you can stuck behind the stage, with nothing but a locked door behind you and a wall of sweaty flesh and bone waiting ahead. Both near impenetrable. Nothing in between but King Khan, Mark Sultan, Leo Chips and plenty of empty bottles to relieve yourself into. We found where the heart lies in the spellcaster, and even the Kodak instashoot could see it beat. -L.wood
