nola is a very dangerous city, yeah you should have an escort, especially for the areas id recommend.
its a bit of a complicated little place, especially downtown (french market area) and up towards Canal (House Of Blues) - there are some cool 'college type' white boy bars that you could get your rave'karaoke on up near the Saint Charles meets North Carollton area. Any cab driver will know these, or you could go down more towards 'Elysian Fields' and 'Decatur and hit some very weird gothic industrial scum strips with everything from live bondage to naked goth girls drunk hanging from balconies, but its very very weird, ask to go to 'Checkpoint Charlies' its on the corner, straight up irish rock n roll bar. Near there is the 'Dragon Den', a cool asian style punk club, very dark very small, id be surprised if you find any of these.
most locals dont even know they exist. its hard to give directions, there simply dark alleyway bars. misfits vampire pubs, all 24 hours. try to get to the 'shimsham' club its cool.
have fun.
