Have you ever visited the state of Louisiana?  What sticks out in your mind from that visit?

If not, what do you think of when someone says, "Louisiana?"

The French Quarter.  Bourbon Street.  Southern plantations.  Hurricanes.  Beignets.  Crawfish.

As a musician, the first thing that I think of is blues and jazz.
