7:30am |<\/strong> The woman shaking her groove thing next to me leaned over and said, \u201cI didn\u2019t even know he could sing!\u201d And yet, there he was, Tito Jackson and his Bowler Babes blowing away those who stayed to close the 2010 Long Beach Bayou & Mardi Gras Festival on Sunday.<\/p>\n

During the (Michael) Jackson Five portion of the show Tito got into the spirit by wearing an Afro wig while one of the Bowler Babes handled the falsettos.<\/p>\n

Other highlights included touching a frog, painting my face, making a mask and winning the watermelon eating contest. No I didn\u2019t, Kaila King did, but I could have if I hadn\u2019t just filled up on deep-fried gater kabobs.<\/p>\n

God, I love New Orleans<\/s> Long Beach!<\/p>\n
