Sharing resources and information in post apocalyptic New Orleans. From punk shows and bluegrass to community activism and news that gets kept quiet we are trying to create and solidify our community and to safeguard and nurture its creative culture (from funk to punk, jazz to metal, bluegrass to hip-hop).
(In other words share resources, unify the scene, stay informed.)

Loki from Humid City here, welcome to our MySpace outpost on the interenet!
I encourage the posting of band news, events, shows, etc in the comments here. The only bands I will allow as friends (i.e. with the ability to post comments) are those either from New Orleans, featuring New Orleans musicians, or with some other strong link to the city.
If anyone posts large pictures, animations or other html goodies that throw off the page layout they will get deleted.
Posts not pertaining to New Orleans in some fashion will be denied.
All comments related to New Orleans are welcome. Flaming or unneccesary vitriol will be summarily deleted. Please be nice to each other, we have been through enough already.
This is all for New Orleanians (at home and amongst the diaspora) and those who share our love of the Crescent City. Stay informed, get involved, visit often!
If you have any suggestions please leave them as comments or email me directly at humidcity (at) gmail (dot) com
Thanks for stopping by! Tell your friends! New Orleans WILL Rise Again!
Minnesota Rep. Michelle Bachmann claimed on Friday that Barack Obama and his wife Michelle held anti-American views and couldn't be trusted in the White House. She even called for the major newspapers of the country to investigate other members of Congress to "find out if they are pro-America or anti-America."
Who I'd like to meet: Other people who work in social media.
Anyone with an interest in or love for New Orleans!
Anyone willing to assist in making Humid City better and more useful.

if george bush knocked on your door today what would you tell him. give me your answer....AND CHECK OUT SOME OF THE FUNNY ANSWERS I HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED
Was reading the blog over at the Gambit Weekly (Oct. 16th)- http://www. blogofneworleans. com/ and started reading this post about a new video/computer game designed by students from Brooklyn. It's about Hurricane Katrina. Was curious if you have seen this. Also wondering what you think about it. It's being touted as "educational" but somehow I just find it in bad taste. Maybe I'm being too sensitive.
