On Thursday, despite some weather delays, New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival got underway at the Fair Grounds Race Course to celebrate their 50th anniversary. The beauty of Jazz Fest is that the music truly never stops throughout the weekend. Luckily for fans unable to attend this year, Nugs.tv will be webcasting a series of Tipitina’s late-night performances throughout Jazz Fest for free!

In December, Galactic officially confirmed their purchase of Tipitina’s from longtime owner Roland Von Kurnatowski and his wife Mary. The reported plans to sell Tipitina’s came as Von Kurnatowski faces a number of lawsuits from investors surrounding bounced checks and unpaid debts totaling nearly $3M.
