Some Super Bowl counter programming: A Prairie Home Companion with guest New Orleans musicians
I was listening last night and heard two musicians from the Big Easy (also coincidentally the home of this year's Super Bowl football championship) : Topsy Chapman; Butch Thompson and His New Orleans Orphans. Video highlights and full audio here. At the beginning of the show Garrison Keillor announced the show would have a New Orleans music celebratory theme but I don't remember if GK or anyone mentioned the Super Bowl that'd be the night after (PHC is performed live at St. Paul, Minn. Saturday nights 5pm-7pm CT and carried live on Minnesota Public Radio & most East Coast NPR stations).
From the PHC site here's where to find the New Orleans music in the full audio mp3 file:

. . . almost feel bad that I'll be watching my Ravens, instead of this one.
