“New Orleans is not like other cities, and its Jazz & heritage Fetival is not like other music festivals,”’ Eliza Barclay writes in her article about her po-boy sandwich experience. She describes New Orleans’ Jazz Fest as “wonderfully chaotic and yet orderly.” I feel like this statement could describe New Orleans as a whole city, not just its Jazz Fest. When I think of New Orleans, I think of Mardi Gras, drinking, and Bourbon Street. All of which are “wonerfully chaotic” yet some how orderly simutaneously. The city does a lot of planning and working together with members of the community in order to make events in New Orleans run smoothly. At any New Orleans event, there is always food, music, alcohol, and lots of people. Most cities can’t handle all of these at once bt New Orleans does it year-round. From big events like Jazz Fest to smaller events mostly known to local and not so much tourists that seem to take place weekly, there is always something wonderfully chaotic going on in New Orleans that runs exactly according to plan in New Orleans. New Orleans puts so much effort into these productions because they are what holds the community so tightly together.
