    • Quotes

      Self -Host: You know, the beautiful thing about being from New Orleans is that you feel like you're part of a tradition. The more you start to understand the history of our music. One of the things that blows me away is that I can go down on Frenchman Street, and I can hear some young kids playing on the street. And I can hear Louis Armstrong in their playing. And they may not ever realize it. But it's that lineage, it's that language that's been passed down generation by generation by generation. I'm proud that there are moments and times when I feel like the spirit of Louis Armstrong is flowing through me. You know, it flows through all of us.
