Did HOB last night for the Project 2010 benefit. Music was great, but the closest thing I heard to a definitive mayoral candidacy was when Harry Shearer got up on stage to say “Yes, the rumors are true, I am announcing that I’m running for mayor! I have to make sure that everything I say is copyrighted so that the next ‘Mayor In Your Pocket’ hits the market, I’ll get paid. “LBJ” from 106.7FM, who served as emcee, did announce Irvin Mayfield as “the next mayor of New Orleans,” and Irvin gave a speech that sounded like he was a candidate (put culture in the forefront of the city’s recovery, improve the port, create more jobs, reduce crime, improve the criminal justice system, etc.), but not once did he ever definitively say he was running for mayor. So is he or isn’t he?
