Absolutely beautiful. I love that City, my mom passed 12 years ago and she was raised there. One day I’m gonna have this honor for her. I love New Orleans. The people all get up and give their respect and pray and seen together and it’s a beautiful thing.
You were certainly in the right place at the right time. It was 'Top of the Bottoms' hosting and playing alongside some other Krewe folks. It is rare that KC folks get this sort of exit (unless they were part of the MG or Jazz music community), so it was truly special that you captured it. Thank you for sharing!
The banner with ‘Top of The Bottoms’ refers to the East Bottoms, home to a second line community krewe called ‘Dirty Force’, also the name of their brass band playing here. The Ship bar in the East Bottoms is their spiritual home & venue for their annual ball. I had the great pleasure to play snare drum with these fine folks in the previous few years at Mardi Gras parades & balls, memorials, sporting events etc.
West Bottoms, Mike! haha. The brass band members are a mix of many groups, Dirty Force are the original MG street band, plus Relativity Brass members, and many local jazz musicians not in street parade groups.
I'm from Kansas City, but I didn't know this was going on. 'Top of the Bottoms' probably refers to an older section of town known as the River Bottoms.
Yup we celebrate the lives of our dead rather than mourn their death.We’d rather have a party at the funeral with cheers and champagne rather than tears and pain
I want a traditional Oneness Apostolic Pentecostal home going service, with my pastor preaching the importance of repentance and being baptized in the nme of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins and receiving the Holy Ghost. I plan to be cremated and then have mine and my late husband's ashes mingled as they are buried in the family cemetery next to my parents. Daddy bought four plots,so that part is already taken care of. Funerals are so expensive and I don't want what few loved ones i have left going into debt, just let Medicaid pay for my cremation then have a memorial service/celebration of life.
Hush! You have your funeral your way. If you want it to be a sermon instead of celebrating your life, do so, but many folks choose this as their funeral before they pass. My mother was born in NOLA and it's their culture.
i hope they are are flying away to meet the LORD. I just can't believe you going to play music and be like you was a child of God and make it Sorry hate to bust your bubble.
A celebration on going to meet our Lord. This is the way I want to go!
Amen. Me too sis❤✝️🙏

Thanks for explaining! It was kind of magical to leave the museum and find this coming out of the theatre across the street.

Beautiful music, I would ave thought this was in the french quarter, captured the spirit of New Orleans so well, can't help but love this!
The deceased is jamming from the clouds.
Beautiful 🤩

Thé jazz funeral band funeral is just a thing in the New Orleans?
The second line is a product of New Orleans jazz and you mostly see it there.
It should be like that everywhere. I'll take this over the silence and sobbing of loved ones any day.

@ je vois vive la Orléans
This is mostly cultural to African-American/Creoles in Louisiana. This hope we celebrate our dead.
It seems that some people on this page thinks that this is in New Orleans, it's not so, please research and read the total description! ⚜️⚜️⚜️

Play your horns and music to glorify GOD not the dead.
New Orleans culture Don't utilize grief with a passing. The uplift and celebrate one's transition

@@SherriLyle80sthis is how I wish my death to be. Celebrate the transition. I may have moved north but I'll always be a southerner at heart ❤️ 💙 💜

Wow way to be rude. They are celebrating a life. You have no culture do you?
There is nothing wrong with celebrating life. And in heaven there will be trumpets, drums, music, and ppl singing to worship God.
god made music to be played baby, he didnt make it to keep it to himself.
