Long time no post, & I should rename this blog "2012 2013 2014 and forever"

Greetings, Mavs fans. I've been slacking off in the blog department lately but have managed to see two Mavs shows since last post: one at the Mayo Performing Arts Center in Morristown, NJ a few weeks back, and a great one this past Tuesday in New Orleans at Tipitina's, a neat little venue where we were front row, stage left, in front of a wild and crazy keyboard wizard of some renown.

I've posted photos to a Facebook group that you're all probably aware of called Mavericks Fans Unite. If you're not aware, go join, it's a great resource and forum. Go now! Go! You can come back here afterwards :)

Here is the one song for which I grabbed full-length video, with Raul, Michael and Quentin doing "La Vie En Rose":

Mike Scarborough took video of the entire show from the front row, stage right, and has uploaded all of the songs to YouTube - search username tigerbaitcom to see 'em all.

Set list:  this was not strictly followed, by the way, but is generally correct. Tipitina's welcomed the Mavs for two nights and unusually enough, "Come Unto Me" was not performed the first night, but was on the final night. In nods to the New Orleans crowd, "Blue Bayou" and Fats Domino's "Be My Guest" were part of the offering.


So I will end this blog post the way I always do, with "There's nothing like a Mavs show, go see one!"

And if you can't physically get to a show, Austin City Limits Fest is streaming live tonight, with the Mavs taking the stage at 20:00 US Eastern time (GMT -5h).  Go here:  http://dangerousminds.net/
