I got two assignments last night, merged into one IndyStar gallery, to cover that greatest of pre-religious-purge festivals: Mardi Gras. Even though Spain did it right in 2010, I can still say Indy did okay. In between the fresh (and shipped live!) Louisiana crawfish at Kilroy's and the quite lively band at the Jazz Kitchen, I'd say the night was a success.
Jazz Kitchen near Broad Ripple was host to Nashville jazz band Halfbrass during Mardi Gras, Tuesday, Feb. 12, 2013. Halfbrass ended its set with a march through the bar of "When the Saints Go Marching In." (Alex Farris / For The Star)
