I spent a lot of time there in the late 90s/early 00s, tried to get a green card to move out there permanently but failed... My last chance to get over there disappeared when the dotcom bubble burst, was gonna join a start-up as a designer...
It was a great time, Lucero and the Reigning Sound were just starting out and still playing in midtown front rooms, Junior's Juke Joint was still running, Othar Turner would let you watch band practice in his farmyard with chickens and goats running around, visiting with Jessie Mae Hemphill, brilliant place, my spiritual home...
