Fritzel's - The Home of Traditional New Orleans
Jazz
Fritzel's European Jazz Pub is the 'little jazz
club that could'. Celebrating its 40th anniversary
this year, it has become a Mecca for true Dixieland
Jazz lovers AND musicians. Since 1969, local New
Orleaneans and international visitors to 'the big
easy' consider Fritzel's their home away from home.
Nestled in an historic 1831 building in the heart of
the French Quarter on Bourbon Street, there is a
genuine warm welcome extended nightly by Proprietor
Vasile Zarganis and Kate, General Manager.
Reliving the days of Louis Armstrong, Sidney Bechet
(clarinet), Joe 'King' Oliver (cornet), Johnny Dodds
(clarinet) and Alvin Batiste (clarinet) ~ Fritzel's
whisks their guests back in time to when Dixieland
music was purely THE sound that made this city so
unique. It's a modest club that feels just right to
guests who want to get close to the music. Its
intimate setting erases the distance between
audience and band which always includes seasoned,
accomplished musicians.

 "Mayberry
Momma'sTM Food for the Soul & Body" cookbook is a heart-warming combination of the
Mayberry Momma's memories of growing up in Mount
Airy, N.C., the small town that she and Andy
Griffith shared, along with the results from her
nationwide contest, which brought in a "passel of
good recipes for great food." The book's emphasis on
"home cooking" takes the reader back to an era in
the South and a generation that loved to cook! Add
in a generous helping of Carolina mountain wisdom,
Mayberry Momma style, and you've got a tasty
offering. This new book is a natural follow-up to
her first book, Memories of Mayberry, which explored
the influence of their hometown on the fictional TV
town. |

Cellar6 is the newest addition to St.
Augustine's nightspots - a sensuous lounge to 'wine
down' that is cool, intimate and relaxing. It is
tucked away on brick-paved Aviles Street, where the
arched wooden entry to the narrow boulevard is named
after the town of Aviles, Spain. Guests entering
Cellar6 are immediately drawn to the dazzling yellow
glass wine cellar - one tiered story above the bar
and then to the synergy of the space that is
eye-catching but not distracting. With high
ceilings, a wall of wine bottles and rich woody
hues, the stars here are the owners - Craig Colee
and Valerie Shubert - both eye-candy
themselves along with the wine! |
 Tom
McManus ~ author, speaker, radio and TV
personality ~ will always be remembered as playing
an instrumental role in the Jacksonville Jaguars
miraculous 1996 football season; it was the
Cinderella story of the NFL that year. The former
football star (1995-1999) who started 14 games as
middle linebacker including the 1996 AFC
Championship Game, is currently heard daily on his
AM Radio 1010XL show "The Rumble with Tom McManus".
He travels nationally promoting his book "We'll
Always Be Pals".
His book tells the riveting story of his father,
fifty years apart in age ~ but ended up best of
friends - both determined to get the job done. The
youngest of his six children, he taught Tom
everything there is to know about how to be a man in
the world. Gene McManus, born in 1920, witnessed
some of the most historical events in our country's
history. A product of the Great Depression, he was a
football star, a boxer, a B-24 Liberator pilot and
POW during World War II. He was an American hero...and
he was Tom's hero!
As a dynamic motivational speaker, McManus appears
at charitable events, universities and global
corporate events talking about Perseverance,
Leadership, Overcoming adversity, Teamwork and
Inspiration.
