Freret Street - The Newest Restaurant Row in New Orleans
<p>Much of the fun of visiting a city is knowing what the natives know about where to go for food, fun and more. I'm going to let you in on the worst kept secret in New Orleans, Freret is the newest Restaurant Row. This street in the heart of Uptown New Orleans has never been on the tourists' radar, but that's about to change. In the last year so many new restaurants have opened along just a few blocks of Freret Street, that I'm having trouble keeping up with all of them, and I live in the neighborhood. So, I thought it was time I sampled them all for you and gave you a report. It's&#160;a tough job, but someone has to do it. <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://goneworleans.about.com/od/restaurants/a/Restaurant-Row-Freret-Street.htm">Here's what I found out</a>.</p><p style="background:#f5f3ef;border:1px solid #d5d0bf;clear:both;padding:.5em;"><a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://goneworleans.about.com/b/2012/01/31/freret-street-the-newest-restaurant-row-in-new-orleans.htm">Freret Street - The Newest Restaurant Row in New Orleans</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://goneworleans.about.com/">About.com New Orleans Travel</a> on Tuesday, January 31st, 2012 at 09:07:01.</p><p><a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://goneworleans.about.com/b/2012/01/31/freret-street-the-newest-restaurant-row-in-new-orleans.htm">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://goneworleans.about.com/b/2012/01/31/freret-street-the-newest-restaurant-row-in-new-orleans.htm#gB3">Comment</a> | <a href="http://goneworleans.about.com/gi/pages/shareurl.htm?PG=http://goneworleans.about.com/b/2012/01/31/freret-street-the-newest-restaurant-row-in-new-orleans.htm&#038;zItl=Freret Street - The Newest Restaurant Row in New Orleans">Email this</a></p>

Springsteen and Eddie Vedder at 2012 New Orleans Jazz Fest
<p>It was just announced that two new big name acts will be added to the 2012 <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://goneworleans.about.com/od/jazzfestfaqs/a/New-Orleans-Jazz-And-Heritage-Festival.htm">New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival </a>lineup. If you didn't have a reason to come to Jazz Fest this year, how about Bruce Springsteen &#038; the E Street Band and Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder. The Boss is a favorite at Jazz Fest and there's not one of us who was there in 2006 for his performance in the first Jazz Fest after Hurricane Katrina who will ever forget it. It was quite possibly the most emotional musical event I've seen in my life. This year Springsteen will perform on April 29, the first Sunday of Jazz Fest on the Acura Stage. Dr. John and guitarist John Mayer will also be performing on the Acura Stage before the Boss, so you might as well just camp out there for that afternoon.</p> <p>The well known vocalist Eddie Vedder will be appearing May 3rd at the Fest. This will be one stop on his upcoming solo ukulele tour. Vedder fronted Pearl Jam at the 2010 Jazz Fest. He has a blast and decided to stick around for an extra day or so. His latest tour will kick off in Las Vegas and will include 13 stops. He will be accompanied by the Irish singer/guitarist/actor Glen Hansard.</p> <p>Up next for the Fest will be the day by day schedule. Stay tuned!</p><p style="background:#f5f3ef;border:1px solid #d5d0bf;clear:both;padding:.5em;"><a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://goneworleans.about.com/b/2012/01/25/springsteen-and-eddie-vetter-at-2012-new-orleans-jazz-fest.htm">Springsteen and Eddie Vedder at 2012 New Orleans Jazz Fest</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://goneworleans.about.com/">About.com New Orleans Travel</a> on Wednesday, January 25th, 2012 at 08:33:38.</p><p><a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://goneworleans.about.com/b/2012/01/25/springsteen-and-eddie-vetter-at-2012-new-orleans-jazz-fest.htm">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://goneworleans.about.com/b/2012/01/25/springsteen-and-eddie-vetter-at-2012-new-orleans-jazz-fest.htm#gB3">Comment</a> | <a href="http://goneworleans.about.com/gi/pages/shareurl.htm?PG=http://goneworleans.about.com/b/2012/01/25/springsteen-and-eddie-vetter-at-2012-new-orleans-jazz-fest.htm&#038;zItl=Springsteen and Eddie Vedder at 2012 New Orleans Jazz Fest">Email this</a></p>

Take a Romantic Valentine's Day Trip to New Orleans
<img class="alignnone" src="http://0.tqn.com/h/goneworleans/1/H/p/1/sculpture2.jpg" alt="sculpture garden in C ity Park" /><p>It's not too early to plan something special for that special person in your life.
