I’m homesick watching the video but I can only identify 1952 to today. 72 years old and I went to a lot of Mardi Gras parades and parties!!!!! Both as a little kid and a teenager until I joined the Marine Corps in 1970. Didn’t get home much after that. I was heartbroken to see what Katrina did to the city. I cry when I see the videos. But I love the FOOD!!!!! Fried oysters on a po’boy, oysters on half shell, gumbo, jambalaya, boiled crawfish, shrimp and crab all eaten with ice cold Dixie beer!!!! Do they still have Dixie beer there????!?😋🥹🎉✝️👏🍾
This is so cool! I'm a musician and I was wondering if I could please use some of the footage here for a music video for an original song I wrote about the Mardi Gras :) Please let me know! Thank you - long live NOLA!
it is what it is, this is who we be... and been doing it too as we see here
Where did you guys get the music in the background? That’s some old Rebirth

@@visit_hnoc My goodness! Thank y’all for sharing it for sure. Us younger musicians usually get to hear about those days, we rarely get to actually hear it
Is that a young miss Doreen Ketchens at the 4:10 mark?
