HOWEVER, we went out to look at the parades and returned around 10:30. By that time, the crowd had gotten much thicker, and it was mostly 20 somethings with the spiked hair and conspicuous tatoos. The 80's music was gone, and they were playing modern hiphop and R&B. So it went from great to sucky in a very short span.

I've been in twice int he evening. The first time, no one was there but a few people. Second time it got crowded. I didn't see the spiked hair/tattoo crowd, more the spiked hair and wearing a skinny suit with a knotted up tie at 9 pm type. I left about 9:30, but it was steadily filling up. But, the crowd was a real mix of regular people like me and a few douchey seeming people (I try not to judge, but if the boot fits.... I think its location will draw all sort of random people. But, I don't want to hang out and listen to rap and hiphop.

Had lunch today. Burger and fries came out fast. Burger was a little small vs. the bun, but very good. The fries are fricking stupid. $4 for a gigantic basket, as in I hardly put a dent in them, and I'm what some may refer to as "of hefty appetite". Hopefully that's just an issue with the mardi gras menu.
