New Orleans Jazz and Alcoholic Hurricanes

I swear to God (sorry PZ), this post is tangentially related to science.

I mean, on its face it may just seem like an excuse to put up my brother's latest two YouTube vids of his jazz performances.

But if you peer deeper, you might note the following: 1) Davy Mooney is coming to DC this Friday to play at my book party; that party is to celebrate a book about hurricanes; and the other kind of hurricanes will be served at the bar.

And no, if you drink them in the southern hemisphere, the alcohol doesn't spiral into your bloodstream any differently.

See, toldya, this post is tangentially related to science.

So check out the videos, and I'm off to Denver....

Davy Mooney performs his original tune "Evans Heaven" with Paul Wiltgen - drums and Nori Naraoka - bass at Louis 649 in the East Village.

In a recent survey by the Council on Alcohol & Drug Abuse For Greater New Orleans, 13% of respondents said they were drinking more since the storm.
