Daniel Johnston Farewell Tour

Songwriter, performer, and visual artist Daniel Johnston is saying farewell to touring, but not before giving fans in select cities a last chance to hear the man live. Also famed as the creator of the famous "Hi, how are you" frog monster graffito on Austin's drag, much of Johnston's fame stems from lo-fi recordings he put out on cassette in the '80s (and remember, this is before cassettes were cool). He'll hit New Orleans first, and will be accompanied by the Preservation Hall Jazz Band. Doors 6 pm, show at 9 pm; show includes screening of documentary The Devil and Daniel Johnston. thejoytheater.com.
