A charmed life is about to take another undeserved turn and deposit me in the States for a week. Work is stumping up for me to go on a study tour following the highway of the humble soybean.

On Saturday 22nd June 2002, I fly into Chicago, get to see town on Sunday, and do the Board of Trade on Monday. Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday nights I am in Lafayette, Indiana, and then Thursday and Friday nights in New Orleans. Saturday 29th I fly back to Chicago and back over the pond to Blighty.

I can't bring my squeezer, but should be able to sling a fiddle on the plane. Can any of my Mudmates recommend any sessions on any of the nights in any of the places. The Locator doesn't list anyone in the cities concerned, but where better to ask than here?
