New Orleans Street Performers

I got the chance to visit one of favorite cities recently and man, did I take advantage of it. The French Quarter in New Orleans is home to some of the most unique street performers that you will see in any city. As you walk around the French Quarter you will see some very good bands performing on just about every street corner as well as Jackson Square.







Another type of street performer are the human statues standing still for up to ten minutes while their cash buckets fill up from passing tourists as they gaze at them and wonder if they are real. If you havent been to New Orleans lately then I can tell you that it's alive and well and teeming with life and excitement.
