    Vol II issue 1 Vol. II, issue 1 1 Photo / Bob Compton Where is Beat Street? There is a place in New Orleans, a figurative address that is home to all that is real. New Orleans Beat Street is the home of jazz. It is also the residence of funk and the blues; R&B and rock ‘n’ roll live here, too. When zydeco and Cajun music come to town, Beat Street is their local address. Beat Street has intersections all over town: from Uptown to Treme, from the Ninth Ward to the French Quarter, from Bywater to the Irish Channel, weaving its way through Mid-City and all points Back o’ Town. Beat Street is the Main Street in our musical village. It is where we gather to dine and to groove to live music in settings both upscale and downhome. Beat Street is where we meet to celebrate life in New Orleans with second line parades, festivals and concerts in the park. Beat Street is lined with music clubs, restaurants, art galleries, recording studios, clothing shops, coffee emporiums and so much more. New Orleans Beat Street is a mythical street in New Orleans surrounded by water and flooded with music. 2 NEW ORLEANS BEAT STREET MAGAZINE Vol. II, issue 1 3 Photo / Michael P. Smith In This Issue... Beat Street returns with a dual focus this month on the inimitable James Booker and the thirtieth anniversary of the Maple Leaf Bar.

  • The Best Songs, Records, and Bands Transport You Back to the First Moment You Heard Them Each and Every Time They Play
    The best songs, records, and bands transport you back to the first moment you heard them each and every time they play. Whether you caught a house party gig after Better Than Ezra formed in 1988 at Louisiana State University, heard “Good” on the radio once it hit #1 during 1995, became a fan following Taylor Swift’s famous cover of “Breathless” in 2010, or saw them headlining sheds in 2018, you most likely never forgot that initial introduction to the New Orleans quartet founded by Kevin Griffin [lead vocals, guitar, piano] and Tom Drummond [bass, backing vocals]. Those hummable melodies, unshakable guitar riffs, and confessional lyrics quietly cemented the group as an enduring force in rock music. How many acts can boast being the inspiration of a classic Saturday Night Live skit? Very few. Speaking of incredible accomplishments, they occupy rarified air with spots on Billboard’s “100 Greatest Alternative Songs of All Time” and “100 Greatest Alternative Artists of All Time” as of 2018. Additionally, 2018 also marked 25 years since the arrival of the breakthrough album Deluxe. Maintaining a steady pace forward, the new single “GRATEFUL” garnered acclaim from Billboard who praised its “highly commercial, anthemic sheen that certainly pairs nicely with the approach of Deluxe.” The story of Better Than Ezra began before the nineties explosion they remain so often associated with ever even happened. Griffin and Drummond comprised the core of the band at its onset as they hit the road and won over one fan at a time beginning in 1989. This fan base would go on to be known as “Ezralites” by the time the first pressing of Deluxe landed independently in 1993.

I am the Senior Director of the Regulatory Approvals and Compliance Directorate of the Industry Regulation and Determinations Branch of the Canadian Transportation Agency and, as such, have personal knowledge of the matters hereinafter deposed to. 2.

A licensee is subject to certain economic, consumer and industry protection safeguards (e.g. tariffs, financial requirements, 2 and Canadian ownership). The Agency has issued thousands of domestic and international licences. 3. An Indirect Air Service Provider (ISP) is a person who has commercial control over an air service but does not operate aircraft. An ISP makes decisions on matters such as routes, scheduling, pricing, and aircraft to be used, while it charters aircraft fromlicenced air earners. 4. In Agency Decision No. 232-A-1996 in relation to a complaint filedby WestJet Airlines Ltd. against Greyhound Lines of Canada Ltd. (Greyhound) and Kelowna Flightcraft Air Charter Ltd. (Kelowna) (the Greyhound Decision), the Agency determined that Greyhound would be operating a domestic air service and therefore required Greyhound to hold a domestic licence, despite the fact that it did not operate any aircraft.
