Met Windex Pete Christmas morning on Royal Street. I could have sat and listened to him all day! #NOLA #PeaceAndLove

He's the first person i met in New Orleans. Rolled up to me in Treme on his bike

I met this guy at a bar in the treme a few years back - was very confused by him but learned he’s a legend !

[@oktobergrrl]

Yay! Even got to see one of my cats in Tuba Fats square 😺

Chiné of the Candlelight, Mr. Sylvester of the Back Street Cultural, and Mr. Ronald Lewis of the House and Dance and Feathers loss really hurt but this community and the tradition will keep rolling

Was new in town in 2015. Driving around tripping. Suddenly realized I was too high to drive. Pulled over to park it on St Phillip st just outside Armstrong park and met Pete right there. I already knew who he was because my buddy had a photo of Pete with Magic Johnson on his refrigerator
