Abbeville is just outside of Lafayette, a few hours drive from N.O. We went early to do a master class with some of the local musicians from 7-12 grades at one of the schools. It’s always fun to get the young musicians up on stage with us. We then played an evening show in the [...]

We started the day off nicely by going up to our great public radio station in New Orleans, the one and only WWOZ. It was the last day of the semi annual pledge drive where they raise $ so the station can stay on the air. It’s almost all volunteers. We are all about supporting [...]

The hallowed grounds of Tipitina’s was very welcoming to The Bonerama’s last night. It’s always an honor to play there. Like playing Carnegie Hall, but a bit more funkier. (I’ve never played Carnegie Hall, but I know how to get there). How about A LOT more funkier. Never the less, it’s a great music venue [...]

The second night was kicked up a notch. We knew we were going home on Monday morning to make it for Mardi Gras so every one was excited to hit it hard and wish it well. That means we played our asses off. Kermit had his set going strong when Bert jumped up for a [...]

I think the guys in the band would not argue with NYC being one of the greatest cities on Earth. It’s probably our second favorite city with you know which one being tops. Always an excitement leading up to playing there. We were honored to have Marco Benevento as our special guest on the Fender [...]

It was sweet to play in The Hamilton, the new music club on the scene in DC. Great, room, stage and people. They made us feel very welcome there. It’s always fun to jump down in the middle of the crowd and play and and dance with everybody. It just has to happen at the [...]

There is a strong connection from N.O. to St. Louis. Maybe it’s the Fleur De Lis, King of France kind of thing or is it the Mississippi River? Maybe it’s the music loving people. What ever it is, it’s nice to get there and play. We always see lots of friends and fans who show [...]
