If it's Wednesday......

...then get yourself to the Candlelight Lounge in the Treme neighborhood in New Orleans...IMHO Donna's used to be THE place for a real neighborhood New Orleans music experience, but since Donna decided to retire to Florida, the Candlelight is now the place to be and on Wednesday with the Treme Brass Band..well as they say back East - Fugetaboudhit..even with the randomly enforced $5 cover (if you live in the neighborhood, don't think you get charged), you can't go wrong with this music and the whole scene..so, get there early, get a seat at the table near the band,start ordering up those $3 High Lifes and have a good old time..I've been there several times and trust me -once you go , you will always want to go back again as soon as you can..so let's reveiw - here is the Holy Trinity of New Orleans Music Venues (during the week anyway) : Tuesday- Maple Leaf, Wednesday- The Candlelight Lounge and Thursday-Vaughns (preview of tomorrow's post)...I've been at each at different times but never 3 days in a row...gotta save something for a future visit..Bye for now..
