I guess nobody saw that article or post about the oak tree entertainment for the year or nobody cares about the bands at the tree.
I know what you are talking about and I went back yesterday to look but I couldn’t find a single thing. Meant to reply last night but slipped my mind. I would say email the athletic department and ask.
It's the same ones every year -some kind of Zydeco band. They all sound exactly the same anyway.Quote:

Geno’s awesome. Very enjoyable to watch live. When my daughter played ball, “Chicken on the Run” was her walk up song.Quote:

I got the seafood pasta w/ fried shrimp and my friends got the fried platter. That place was awesome and everyone was super nice.Quote:

I think he was talking about the Toby's that was located in Laffy.Quote:

It's a shame 4 corners became what it became because Toby's held on to its good reputation for years but finally succumbed to its location.
Yes, one corner auto parts, one corner auto parts# 2, one corner a seafood joint, and one corner a use to be cat house.........So you could eat fish, smell fish and get parts if fish breaks.....
Tell us about that cat house . . .Quote:

If you think all Zydeco and Cajun music sound the same… Well just get out
I don't think all Cajun music sounds the same, but in many instances zydeco does. A lot of songs after Beau Jacque's, Cornbread, have the same or very, very similar riff.Quote:

Keith Frank and Chris Ardoin have their own styles, just as an example of it not all sounding the same. As did Fernest Arceneaux.
Fernest Arceneaux was way, way, way before Chris Ardoin and Keith Frank. Much has changed in zydeco since Fernest was in his hay day.Quote:
