The Ponderosa Stomp traditionally takes place between the two weekends of the city’s world-famous New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. The dates this year were April 28 & 29, 2009.

As part of the Ponderosa Stomp Music Conference, the new documentary film about The Remains, AMERICA’S LOST BAND, was screened at the Louisiana State Museum in Jackson Square. Immediately following the screening, there was an interview and
Q + A, moderated by Lauren Onkey of the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame.

A few of the many legendary music figures interviewed during the music conference were: Cosimo Matassa, Joe Bihari, Rick Hall, Dave Bartholomew, Dan Penn, and Mac Rebennack.
