A large part of a successful performance is being prepared.  As with anything of significance, the quality of preparedness is what keeps you coming back.  I recently ate at a new jamaican restaurant for me that was highly recommended for years but never make the journey to partake.  I realized that I was close to the restaurant a few days ago and my friend had also  raved about it in the past . So, we decided to go in.  I ordered the oxtail and peas and rice.  It was amazing!!  We could taste the passion of preparedness and the quality in every single bite!  I left totally full and content.  Two days later, I was back again for the jerk chicken!  It was equally fantastic.  This is the level of preparedness and compassion that propels the DUKES.  This is why folks love New Orleans music with it's haunting melodies and intoxicating rhythms.  We are well prepared and ready to entertain you!
