Mermaid Lounge on Constance...if it's still there. Jacques-Imo's on Oak Street. Circle Bar at Robert E. Lee Circle. St. Louis Cemetery No.1 and the French Quarter is famous.

 Re: Stuff to do in New Orleans?
We were going to, but it looked like a BIG waste of $$$. The cemeteries are the way to go!

 Re: Stuff to do in New Orleans?
It does look kinda cheesy. But I love stuff like that- half the fun. I'd go just for shits and giggles.

 Re: Stuff to do in New Orleans?
The Voodoo Museums can be cool if you collect odd trinkets. Like these little statues of saints and devils made somewhere in South America. http://www.nolaunderground.com/ - good club listings for metal enthusists. We have several local breweries now include NOLA, Abita, and others. Kevlo9's photos are all from the French Quarter and walking there can be fun as long as it is not 90+ degrees outside...

 Re: Stuff to do in New Orleans?
Have not been home post-Katrina, but when I moved in 2000, these were my faves (would need to check and see if still around or still any good):
Breakfast--Croissant d'Or on Ursulines; Camellia Grill on S Carrolton; Mr B's Bistro on Royal St (had this AMAZING pasta dish for breakfast)
Lunch/Dinner--Fiorella's on French Market Place for Friend Chicken; Port of Call on Esplanade for burgers; Camellia Grill again; Clover Grill on Bourbon (campy entertainment with food); Mother's on Poydras; Dickie Brennan's on Iberville for steak; Jacques-Imo's on Oak; Coop's Place on Decatur; Galatoire's on Bourbon; Feeling's Cafe D'Aunoy on Chartres
That's all I can remember off the top of my head...

Juan's Flyin' Burrito on Magazine St. was always a great place, too!

 Re: Stuff to do in New Orleans?
Take a Haunted Cemetery or Ghost tour. You can look at all the history and architecture. There used to be some leather fetish store with leather masks that make the "Saw" movie franchise look tame. They sold a bunch of leather that looks like this. Which is what reminded me of it anyhow and where the band is from. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLFtQ90H6O4

If Suplecs are playing while you're in town, worth the trip alone

 Re: Stuff to do in New Orleans?
Roger, I think you would like this place too. Dive on par with Rutt's (ok maybe a little nicer than Rutts) I also have to second the Beignets at Cafe Du Monde. Its touristy, but you will be a tourist, so its ok. I really enjoyed seeing Cemeteries, which I usually hate.
