Y@ Speak: Jazz Fest weekend 1 — the Billy Joel report

Posted By on Mon, Apr 29, 2013 at 12:05 PM


It was a rainy weekend but that didn't stop people from going to Jazz Fest, fleeing town for the comforts of Lafayette's Festival International de Louisiane or following Billy Joel around (this roundup is mostly about Billy Joel). In other non-Piano Man tweets, Jazz Fest tools and a George Rodrigue parody account.
