Tuba Fats funeral
Posted: Thu Mar 10, 2005 7:08 pm
Hey,
I just stumbled on this stuff today. I've been really into New Orleans Brass Band stuff lately and there is a guy here in our band who played with lots of those folks and he told me how much Tuba Fats influenced that whole scene down there and how big of an event his passing was. I found this website with some pics from the event. Pretty amazing.
