Thursday, September 9, 2010- I have it on good authority that Kermit Ruffins (pictured), Trombone Shorty and the Dirty Dozen Brass Band will sit in with the Dave Matthews Band and country star Taylor Swift at this evening’s NFL kickoff concert.  Decatur Street is shut down and the whole of the French Quarter will be packed with revelers celebrating the start of the 2010-2011 NFL season and the New Orleans Saints exhilarating victory in the Super Bowl earlier this year.  The concert starts at 6:30 PM and will be broadcast nationally.
