Voodoo Fest 2012

It's Halloween, right? Why not celebrate the holiday with some photos from our trip to New Orleans? While we were at the Voodoo festival at City Park over the weekend, there were a ton of crazies out and about dressed up and ready to celebrate Halloween...

The girls.

Can we just say we had an absolute blast at the Voodoo Music + Arts Experience in New Orleans over the weekend? Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Coheed & Cambria, Tomahawk, Jack White and more all packed City Park for the 14th year of the fest. But the one band we were most excited about were Metallica.

One of the things we love about New Orleans' Voodoo Music + Arts Experience is the fact that is is so diverse. Not only are there bands like Neil Young & Crazy Horse and Metallica, but there are also artists like Dave Stewart and K'Naan. It...

If you do not have the chance to attend The Voodoo Experience this weekend in New Orleans' City Park, you still have a chance to view the show online. Voodoo has teamed up with Rolling Stone and Sony X Headphones to bring you a live stream of the show.
