An entertaining story from Don Massenzio, which reminded me of a holiday I had in 2017 that included a few days in New Orleans at Mardi Gras.
As I’ve mentioned in earlier posts, I’m getting ready to release my second collection of stories soon.
This week’s story was one that I wrote specifically to include in my first collection. It was never published as a single.
It was a story that came from a trip to New Orleans for work. I’m a musician and I was able to hear some of the best jazz musicians around and watch them play for tips in bars along Bourbon Street and beyond.
This tale is included in my short story collection, Random Tales, a collection of unrelated stories.
My next collection, releasing on March 29th, will have four related stories that are essentially novellas. It’s been a long journey in four years.
I hope you enjoy,Play it again, Des, posted here as it exists in the book along with a prelude explaining the origins of the story.

What you said the other day. I was in the music biz for (a long time) my linked page is not a lie. This story is 5.5, 6k lovingly told in almost 11,full of detail that will weed out the casual reader. The Robert Johnson story, elongated. Don loves his subject matter, though. Thanks for the intro.
