You will have a great time. Make sure you try lots of hand gernades.

What are hand gernades?

It's a specialty drink that comes from New Orleans. You can find them at any of the Tropical ISLE establishments in on Bourbon St or if you can't wait just type in hand gernades from new orleans and order some for your home now and have a great party. They are great. I have a hand gernade party at least twice a year before coming back for the essence fest.

I'm not to happy with the line up of performers this year. Some are good and others I don't care to remember. EnVogue. I wish they will post the dates of the performance now.

I'm so excited about going!!! I'm getting my tickets in two weeks (have to get that income tax check)! I've never been to it, but read about it and listen to peoples experiences. I can't wait. I read about the young man finding his true love at the Festival and I'm hoping someone sees me...and sees all of me, inside and out! LOL...I'm just excited and can't wait to go!

This is my first time as well. I'm going to make it a habit of going every year! None of my girlfriends want to go and I'm too excited to pass this up...so I'll be by myself but I make friends easily. Where can you get a hand gernade?

When I went to New Orlean last it was for my family reunion. I missed the festival, but seeing New Oeleans for the first time was breathtaking and educational. This was pre- Katrina. Have great fun all who are going, and if by some good fortune God allows me to be able to go, I'll have a much different post to add later.

I agree also with the line up. This will make my 6 year going. This year being an anniversary year you would think the line up would be much better....I am looking for my girl MaryJ, Earth, wind and Fire. Of course Maze. Still time to add more....B will turn the stage out for sure.
