Mar 28 - Not Nunu's

Well, I tried. Bonsoir Catin was advertised at Nunu's tonight, but one of the band members got sick and they had to cancel the gig :) Bonsoir Catin is an almost all-girl Cajun band with tons of energy. The members mostly play in other bands, too, so maybe I will catch them, or part of them, at another time.

Where y'all dancin' tonight? That's the catch phrase for the Acadiana yahoo group :)

So where will I dance? If not, Nunu's then --- La Poussiere in Breaux Bridge where Pine Leaf Boys (minus Cedric Watson) are makin' a ruckus. My job is to dance 'til I drop so the band won't stop. La Poussiere (means "the dust" in French) is a wonderful dance hall. For those uninitiated, the difference between a dance hall and a bar is:

1) a bar has a large, long bar where you can order drinks and a small place where you can dance
2) a dance hall has a large space where you can dance and a small bar where you can order drinks

It's a "couples" crowd --- I've seen that a lot --- and the floor is so smooth and slippery that I have to change out my boots for regular walking shoes. But the music is Pine Leaf luscious and there are friends to dance with so, "life is good."
