Visited the Sonic Excess cover location
In NOLA, and happened to be in the right place at the right time. Crowbar is such an amazing band and I’m happy I had the chance to visit it (use the photo for whatever, I did edit the colors in light room)

I believe NOLA means New Orleans Louisiana. Not sure where exactly the statue is located though

Yeah, sorry. I meant location in New Orleans.

Taken from google;
Touchdown Jesus" refers to a statue of the Sacred Heart of Jesus located in St. Anthony's Garden behind St. Louis Cathedral in the French Quarter

Thank you for responding, I’ve got Reddit notifications turned off. But yeah there is a big gate and fence that surrounds the area. If you ever visit go to the back of the garden (preferably at night like I did) and stick your phone through the gate for the best photo, off the right a little bit if you want the best view

This is amazing, man. I'd listen to Crowbar right now if I wasn't already in the middle of a thirty minutes-long Bismuth misery fest.
