Don't know about the VW scene but NOLA is a fantastic place to visit. Incredible food and the party never stops. Great jazz clubs and "to-go" cocktails.

Looks like you have 3 clubs in NOLA, if they are active or not I'm not sure. The CenLA Volks Folks I believe is still active in Alexandria so you would still have that North of ya.

Mrs. Pez says you have to try out Cafe' du monde when you get there and keep an eye out for the Crawfish festival in May.

French quarter, well then be a tourist and drink the hurricane at Pat O'Briens and visit preservation jazz hall if its still there. Mardi Gras with the pissing in the streets, debauchery and all types of perversions why limit yourself to VWs?
Hot Boudin, raw oysters, crawfish étouffée, chickery coffee. Cajun folks alright, just mind your manners.  have a muffuletta too. |

You got that right you gotta go over to Lafayette then go south hit those small towns on the way to New Iberia. Used to catch a ride on a helocopter to work offshore oil rig. It's a different place or it was when I lived there. Used to leave out of Morgan city too. |
