Lake Town Festival- Kenner

Greetings from the Lake Town Festival...


Here was the lineup...


Robert and I went to Kenner, the other end of the New Orleans area, to another music festival, like Gretna, but smaller-- only one stage.

Still, two of our favorite bands were there (but that comes later)
Start with the food...

So many choices!


We settled on the combo platter

and then we were hungry for some music:

The Chee Weez



This group had on the same outfits at Gretna... but back then the Saints were only 2-0... now they are what? 7-0?



The band is a cover band... doing mostly 70's stuff... Neil Diamond, Journey... that sort of thing. The lead singer is most of the show...


But the rest of the band plays pretty good cover material!

They tired me out... and then...

Cowboy Mouth



This was my third time seeing them...

They are a quartet, doing original rock-n-roll.


The leader is a man named Fred... who sings and plays the drums.


But the lead guitarist, John Thomas is also colorful.


The whole group is energetic


And Fred gets the crowd involved, singing along, yelling, jumping...




Makes me want to use some special effects...


That was enough excitement for one night.
We didn't stay for Eddie Money.
