So that didn't happen or it happened at a different time?

no idea. we need sodascouts, mezzoforte, fierysequences or someone else who was there to let us know what actually happened.

The bug flew into her mouth as they were closing out "Without You" - that new "ah, ah, ah, ah" part. Suddenly Stevie's voice dropped out and it was just Lindsey singing, while she put her hands to her throat. After the song ended, Stevie explained what happened and then went looking for coffee. While she was gone, Lindsey improvised a tune on his guitar and Mick danced a bit jokingly. When it became apparent it would take a few minutes, Mick sat down at the small drum kit and he and Lindsey began a jam session. Not long after, Stevie returned with her coffee. She declared that if the coffee didn't work, Lindsey would have to sing lead on the next song, which was "Gypsy." He looked aghast but she assured him she was confident he could do it. Now that would've been something! lol

Oh that sounds like a really nice mishap interval to have witnessed.

Yeah, it was actually pretty cool - a very memorable moment. I doubt anyone filmed it because it was between songs, but perhaps a bootleg will surface.

Summary

The 44th Annual New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival drew sizeable crowds this year, despite the rain that kept less ardent fans away. Featuring music, food, crafts, and culture, Jazz Fest falls on the last weekend of April and the first weekend of May each year.

The following data reflects public social media mentions on New Orleans Jazz Fest from April 5 – May 5, 2013. The information was pulled from Radian6, a social media monitoring and analytics platform.

Analysis

In the last year, Jazz Fest goers have turned to social media in greater numbers than in years past – almost doubling the number of mentions about the music festival over 2012. There were noticeably more attendees on Saturday May 4th, as Fleetwood Mac’s performance attracted some of the largest crowds in Jazz Fest history (attendance numbers have not yet been released). However, the classic rock group missed out on the lion’s share of the buzz with Maroon 5 claiming the top place among social media mentions. And although the crowds gathered for Fleetwood Mac were greater in number, it is likely that the younger crowd present for contemporary pop group Maroon 5 was more tech savvy than their older festing compatriots, which could account for the discrepancy in crowd size and the volume of social media buzz.

For the second year in a row, Crawfish Monica and Crawfish Bread were the food items that most people dished about on social media. Crawfish dishes received more mentions from Jazz Festers than many of the top performers. But receiving more buzz than the top food and many key Jazz Fest acts was the weather. Rain played a starring role in Jazz Fest this year, which was reflected in the social media chatter about the festival. Surprisingly, more people posted about the rain at Jazz Fest than the mud, which stuck around much longer. Due to the inclement weather conditions, galoshes (rain boots and shrimp boots) ruled the fest. Many local stores sold out of the types of footwear needed to traverse the festival grounds by the second Saturday of Jazz Fest. Galoshes proved to be a social media star of the festival, receiving more buzz than the top food attractions and many of the musical acts.

thanks for the video! ha this was funny i love when stuff like this happens. it makes them seem more human to me but it would have been funnier if we saw the bug fly into stevie's mouth. she has more grace than me i would have been spitting like crazy trying to get it out of there!

Sounds like the same song he was jamming on when Christine was looking bored out of her mind in the Tusk doc.

Lindsey usually says, "Earn while you learn, when this stuff happens."

i was thinking the same thing lol. when there's nothing better to do he noodles with the same song for the last 40 years?

i was also thinking Lindsey and Mick can easily get a gig jamming on summer terraces at some resort in Mediterranean. or i guess, Mick's rooftop restaurant in Maui.

I remember this happen at other shows when Stevie had her mouth opened wide.

I love the little improv the guys did.

[sodascouts]

Thanks for finding this, wildhearted!

[bethelblues]

I loved watching this! Thank you!

Is it weird that I would have enjoyed any change made to Gypsy? Listening to Lindsey's version would've been very interesting.
