"Dirty Linen Night" No More?

According to an article here, a beloved New Orleans tradition - Dirty Linen Night - has been usurped by the "Vieux Carre' Soiree". Currently, it is being reported that the founder of Dirty Linen Night owns the trademark "Dirty Linen Night". This year's producer of the event, Fleur de Lis Consulting, along with Glazer's Companies of Louisiana and the Young Professionals Society, decided to change the name. The Dirty Linen Night event, held annually one week after its White Linen Night counterpart on Julia Street, (this year on August 1,) has not been reached for comment.

The Vieux Carre Soiree is asking for interested attendees to visit their Facebook fan page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Vieux-Carre-Soiree/120639040943

More information as it becomes available.
