Amid all the coronavirus CANCELLATIONS, you might be feeling scared to even walk out your door. It has taken a hit on our weekend event calendars as well. With big festivals and university classes dropping left and right, and hand sanitizer flying off the shelves, you wonder how scared and reclusive should you become?
The answer: a bit. Be aware of the items, people and places you come in to contact with. Avoid touching public doorhandles and countertops if possible, and keep washing your hands!
For those of us who don’t want to spend our entire spring holed up at home, here are the events that are still scheduled for a go as of 5:30pm on March 12, 2020.
Check out these & all our other picks from this weekend in New Orleans:

Bent is back and braver than ever!
We’re presenting trans stories that go a little deeper than the obligatory sappy lipsyncs to This is Me we’ve too often been reduced to and are telling a wide variety of stories.
We’re here to create a space where our wildest demands like basic respect and consideration are already guaranteed to be met, so we can dig a little bit deeper.
The cast of Bent are ready to serve each of the sixty four genders. No longer content to be pushed to the sidelines of a community our predecessors were vital in building, we are taking up space and serving our excellence through drag, burlyq, comedy, and variety

Event Details
Jacques Greene : On Jacques Greene’s 2017 debut album, Feel Infinite, the Toronto DJ/producer used sensual, sample-heavy R&B-house to evoke the unique sense of human connection that can be found inside a dance club-an environment that has helped shape his career and identity since he began throwing parties as a teenager. Here, on his wistful follow-up, he expresses the same fondness for club culture—it’s way of blurring the lines between euphoria and exhaustion, night and morning, adolescence and adulthood—but from a distance. “I feel like one era of my life is ending and another is beginning,” he tells Apple Music a few days after his 30th birthday. “This album is a love letter to that era of staying up all night with your friends.” (Apple Music)
Martyn Bootyspoon : The name Martyn Bootyspoon might seem ridiculous, but he takes humour seriously. As Max Pearl noted in a review of last year’s Silk Eternity EP, Montreal’s Jason Voltaire makes dance music “saturated with charisma.” His music is an odd but undeniable mix of eroticism and whimsy, which might also seem ridiculous if it wasn’t so convincing. (Resident Advisor)
Otto: It’s Otto, enough said!
Heavy Pleasure : A force to be reckoned with, Heavy Pleasure will put it on yea in all the right way.

Rockefeller 3rd Collection at Asia Society”
5:30–8:30 pm | Music by Bruce Sunpie Barnes
ABOUT THE BHANSALI INDIAN ART COLLECTION
A dedicated space devoted to the arts of India was established with NOMA’s expansion in the early 1990s, largely due to the efforts and donations of Dr. Siddharth Bhansali, a New Orleans-based physical. Early Hindu, Buddhist and Jain bronzes and sculpture are the core of his collections, and paintings, miniatures and photographs augment his collection. Through a focused plan of giving and and advocacy for the museum’s newest collection area in Indian Art, Dr. Bhansali has transformed NOMA’s Asian permanent collection. Two special exhibitions Arte Sacre: Roman Catholic Art from Portuguese India and The Pursuit of Salvation: Jain Art from India will be on display through June 7, 2020, in conjunction with Buddha and Shiva, Lotus and Dragon: Masterworks from the Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller 3rd Collection at Asia Society.
ABOUT BRUCE SUNPIE BARNES
Bruce Sunpie Barnes is a veteran musician, park ranger, actor, former high school biology teacher, former college football All-American, and former NFL player (Kansas City Chiefs). Barnes’s career has taken him far and wide — he has traveled to more than 35 countries playing his own style of blues, zydeco, and Afro-Louisiana music incorporating Caribbean and African influenced rhythms and melodies. He is a multi-instrumentalist playing piano, percussion, harmonica, and he learned to play accordion from some of the best, including Fernest Arceneaux, John Delafose, and Clayton Sampy. With his musical group Sunpie and the Louisiana Sunspots, he has played festivals and concerts across New Orleans and the US, as well as internationally, and they have recorded five critically acclaimed CDs.
Barnes is deeply involved in New Orleans parade culture and takes his music to the streets. He is Second Chief of the North Side Skull and Bone Gang, one of the oldest existing carnival groups in New Orleans, and a member of the Black Men of Labor Social Aid and Pleasure Club.
Friday Nights at NOMA is presented by The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate and supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K. Worner Charitable Trust; New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation; and the Louisiana Division of the Arts, Office of Cultural Development, Department of Culture, Recreation and Tourism, in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council.

New York’s finest downtempo/hip-hop producer graces the stage at Banks. Support TBA. This will be one for the books…
Blockhead returns with a tour showcasing music from his upcoming album ‘Bubble Bath’.
The first single ‘On The Bright Side’ is available now, along with the pre-order of Bubble
Bath on both digital and vinyl formats:
http://futurearchiverecordings.com/blockhead-bubble-bath
The internationally renowned NYC producer has released 10 albums over the past 15
years, including four acclaimed records for
Ninja Tune
and numerous production jobs
including notable works with Aesop Rock. He is regarded as one of the modern masters
of instrumental hip-hop, and the forthcoming new album sees him return to record-label-
released music with the bold and exciting roster at Future Archive Recordings (co-
founded by artists Arms and Sleepers, Sun Glitters, Little People and CNJR).
‘Bubble Bath’
is a record born out of meditative expression and ongoing personal
creative challenge, key for a producer of
BLOCKHEAD’s experience. Carried forward
are the incredible hook and sample placement skills of classic works such as ‘Uncle
Tony’s Coloring Book’ and ‘Music By Cavelight’, but what has emerged is an
overwhelming sense of natural musicality and sophistication.
“I want the music I make to be unaffected by outside influences. I like the idea of
working in a bubble… …When I have to describe what I do, to someone,
it’s always a
little awkward because it starts as “I’m a musician” and as questions come back it gets
broken down. “No, I don’t play any instruments” “No, I’m not trained in musical theory” “I
make beats”. When it comes down to it, everything I do has always been guided by my
ears and sensibility.
