I can't say how many times I accidentally walked into a 2nd line while I lived there. I was always in awe. Powerful and moving.

@@gunit8315 Indeed they are and it's not just on a person-to-person (or) a on-my-block level. They're passing municipal legislation and ordinances to curtail second lines, and a whole host of cultural norms that make this legendary city rare and unique. And furthermore it's not just limited to New Orleans. It's happening all over the Caribbean region as well. Belize, Barbados, and Guatemala. They come in force the sale of beach front property that has been communally owned in some cases for over 100 years. Same fuckery occurring in the Gullah islands in the Carolinas.

@@gunit8315 Imagine you have a historical home designated a historical heritage site, and a developer literally bulldozes the place and turns it into a ultra-contemporary steel and glass structure. The is what's happening from a cultural standpoint in New Orleans. A systematic dismantling of the city's institutions in favor of newly arrived people with a agenda to reshape the city to suit their own personal needs. Modern Colonization.

We were. With a group of musician buddies, one fellow stated that it was sad we didn't see a Second Line parade. A few minutes later, off in the distance, a blurp of a siren, the beat of a bass drum, and a whoofing tuba heralded a street parade....a birthday party!

In the 80s, there was a famous scene from the show, "Designing Women" where the ladies had a business convention in NOLA- and one of the characters said they drank so many Hurricane cocktails and partied so hard up & down the streets of New Orleans following a large band- they didn't know they had accidentally joined a funeral procession, lol.

Second Line descends from a tradition called the “Ring Shout”, which originated in Africa. It would also be the beginnings of Dixieland, the first form of jazz.
