New Orleans is a great city...I go there all the time. Never during Jazz Fest or Mardi Gras though! Why isn't there a New Orleans map on CC. SOmeone needs to work on that!

Got a killer lineup this year. I'm a big rebirth brass band fan. A NOLA map would be awesome! You live in NOLA or one of the suburbs?

THe map? Yeah and no, I look at maps of new orleans every now and thing and I jot down some ideas. Not sure if I want it to be something like katrina, where there's neutrals in the police stations and armories, and if you take them and get the guns you get +3 or so. STill hammering out details, but I'm not focusing much time to it.

Uptown is great. Couple of friends live by the park. I'm from Baton Rouge, but I have to work downtown sometimes. I may have to move down there next fall for school, maybe well be neighbors!

I always thought a NOLA map would work great with all the Canals etc. Pretty easily divisible. Maybe someone more motivated than us will get right on it. :lol:

I vote no on a katrina map. New orleans has enough great neighborhoods, canals etc to make it interesting without the negatives.

I was lucky enough to catch the Jazz fest in 2004 and had a wonderful time, highlight was catching Santana pre festival at a small gig in Louis Armstrong park. I loved New Orleans ,though as a pussy tourist saw only the safe parts :D , great bars,music and food though all that butter and cream would have killed me if I ate it for more than a week :lol:

I got to go to Jazz fest for a few years when I lived down there. Definitely a good time! I am sure the fest is surviving, but New Orleans will never be the same.

There can be a katrina one, and a non-katrina one.

New Orleans is fine and it still has a high amount of eccentrics like me, so we'll still keep it together, no worries.
Nothing ever really stays the same, I suppose, but glad to hear things are doing OK.
