Show # 9 Fest By Night, Saturday May 5, 2012: The Original Meters + Papa Grows Funk, and Rebirth Brass Band

Even though The Howlin’ Wolf was rockin’ til the early morn at the Bayou Rendezvous last night, we’re back at it tonight with another showing of epic-ness! The Original Meters are blessing the Howlin’ Wolf stage in front of a sold out crowd for their first New Orleans club show in 30 years!!! Art Neville, Leo Nocentelli, George Porter Jr., and Zigaboo Modeliste were the soulful sound of the sixties and are true ambassadors of New Orleans funk. But the funk doesn’t stop there…we had to bring Papa Grows Funk back to get the party started!! If you were lucky enough to get a ticket, prepare yourself to witness a legendary showing of funk masters!

If you weren’t lucky enough to snatch one, Rebirth Brass Band will also be hitting the stage tonight! Tickets will be available at the door after The Meters perform. Fest By Night is coming to a close, but we’re going out in style! See y’all tonight!

Show #6 Megalomaniacs Ball ft. Garage a Trois w/ Charlie Hunter, Stanton Moore Trio, Marco Benevento & more

First off, I’ve got to say that if you weren’t with us last night, YOU MISSED A GREAT SHOW! Okay, I just had to get that out.

TONIGHT we have a GREAT show lined up for you! It’s the Megalomaniacs Ball featuring Garage a Trois w/ special guest Charlie Hunter , Stanton Moore Trio , Marco Benevento , The Dead Kenny Gs , Mike Dillon Band (featuring members of Yojimbo) & MC Silver Ice. With a line up like this, you know we’re gonna be jammin’ all night. This is one of our FAVORITE shows and if you haven’t seen it before, you need to make tonight the night.

If that wasn’t enough, we have more. Next door in the Den is the Perrier Lounge Soul Party with DJ SMOKE A LOT (aka Kermit Ruffins), Forgotten Souls Brass Band, DJ Perrier and The Boudin Man plus special guests. It’s nice to see Mr. Ruffins put the horn down every now and then to see what other musical talents he has to offer. You’ve got to admit, this is a lot of great music under one roof for only 10 bucks.

Get your tickets here and we’ll see you tonight.
