Ronfather, the video was shot from 3 feet away with a digital camera. I thought people would appreciate getting an inside view of what went down that night. 'Sorry the recording is "weakass".
albertsystem: the idea of having a rock singer perform with the PHJB is to: a) show his respect and love for the traditional New Orleans sound, and b) bring thousands and thousands of new eyes and ears to a band/culture/artform that they otherwise would NEVER experience. Your comments are, quite frankly, ridiculous.
stop commenting on someones skill as a professional musician based on the audio quality from a non-professionals weak ass recording.. you make yourself sound retarded and ignorant. Go see either of these bands live - solid performance. (from experience)
Today I've heard this singer again and I can do it better, no questions.
Is really sad to see the Preservation Hall going down and down. Please, more respect for the original way of doing. Is this the best way to PRESERVE jazz?
@otmq ohh man, such a jokester, i have heard some funny jokes in my day but obviously that is the greatest joke ever told in the history of people laughing, ps- if your ability to judge talent has anything to do with your ability to play trumpet you are prolly a better singer than trumpet player
"the breeze is always singing through the willow" love it. saw them perform this in columbus, oh. always an MMJ fan, but the preservation hall jazz band is just as great! love this kind of music
ala Rudy Vallee (hence the cheerleaders' megaphone

It's called a megaphone. A bullhorn is an amplified megaphone like the cops use.
Very odd to use the megaphone along with a mic.
