Belgian Band : Big Bayou Bandits playing ” Je suis content d’être Cajun” , with a short live encore of a Jambalaya version.
The Jambalaya is dedicated to ‘Oldolds53 ‘ and ‘Kittielips’, who were uploading this song before.
The French title means : “I’m happy to be Cajun” , as the Cajun music is using both languages English and French ( sometimes together in one song).

Oil still gushing in the Gulf of Mexico folks, but you already knew dat! As of last week The New Orleans Saints have raised a half a million dollars through their Super Bowl Championship Ring charity raffle.
Team owner Tom Benson said, “We are pleased to offer this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an official New Orleans Saints Super Bowl XLIV ring. This opportunity will allow a fan to share in the greatest moment in our team’s rich history and the culmination of our place in the NFL record books as champions. And better yet, it allows the individuals, families and small businesses that are dealing with the fallout of the largest environmental catastrophe in the history of the United States to once again have the promise that people care about them and their futures.”
