Monday Night Burlesque and Music!

Happy Monday Everybody!

Hope everybody had an excellent weekend...what's going on tonight??
There's a fun double header over at Maison (508 Frenchmen)...You got The Sazerac Sunrise Jazz Band at 7:00 pm, and the Monday Night Super Jam hosted by Gene Harding at 10:00 pm...now this sounds like a fun way to spend your evening!!

It's another HOT Monday, but there's a great breeze from the river today...so it's a good night to take a stroll along the River Road levee, and while you're there be sure to stop at the River Shack Tavern at 7:00 pm for some really GOOD red beans and rice, and the cool sounds of Amanda Walker.

Get your evening started off right at Clever Wine Bar (3700 Orleans Ave.)....with the amazing sounds of Billy Iuso for an early show at 8:00 pm!!

Keep out the heat and spend some time on the Avenue at The Columns....There's gonna be David Doucet from BeauSoleil fame, and while you're enjoying the sounds have a refreshing adult beverage and  this will surely start your evening off right!

If you're headed to the Quarter go down to hear another amazing early show with Bob French and the Original Tuxedo Band at Irvin Mayfield's Jazz Playhouse show starts around 8:00 pm...with NO COVER!

BJ's Lounge (4301 Burgundy) has a special show tonight at 9:00 pm with King James and the Special Man...If you've never headed down to BJ's you gotta do it...and if they're serving those yummy burritos you have to get one...they are yummy!!!!

If you're lookin' for some bluegrass music tonight you don't have to go too far to find it....Check out the Hi Ho Lounge on St. Claude and the Bluegrass Pickin' Party at 8:00 pm...there's no cover and FREE red beans at this show too!

Be sure to make a stop by the Spotted Cat early for this great line-up of music....Brett Richardson at 4:00 pm, Dominic Grillo and The Frenchmen Street All Stars at 6:00 pm and be sure to stay on for the Jazz Vipers at 10:00 pm.....it's sure to be another smokin' Monday evening show.

If you're looking for some Burlesque tonight (and hey, who isn't?) you need to head down to the House of Blues this evening and tomorrow evening (doors open at 8:00 pm) when Dita Von Teese will take New Orleans by storm with her thrilling “Be Cointreauversial” performance.  Guests will enjoy Cointreau cocktails and wait in anticipation while being treated to a bevy of special guests, including Mr. Murray Hill, priming them for Dita Von Teese’s arrival.  Following the opening performances, attendees will be wowed as Dita Von Teese bathes in a life size Cointreau glass, embellished with Swarovski crystals.  Dita Von Teese’s extraordinary performance will certainly set the bar high for the rest of the week’s events at Tales of the Cocktail!!  (Tickets are about $40...but you get a great show and drinks!!)

Have a great Monday and stay cool...and for more musical fun check out WWOZ Livewire ....until tomorrow
