Banks
Street Bar
• New
Orleans
New Orleans live music venue and neighborhood
bar.
Birdies
Roadhouse
• Varnado
The most authentic road house in the country.
Born from the dreams, sweat, blood and tears
of two of the finest purveyors of live music
in the country. If walls could talk, those at
Birdies Roadhouse would have quite a story to
tell. A “gumbo” of music, friendship
and good times. During the Mardi Gras season
of 1982, Sandy and Sam, two classy bartenders
met. One, dressed in a toga draped in dripping
grapes, the other in a possessed “psycho
clown” costume. That chance meeting began
an ongoing partnership. After entertaining Washington
Parish, many parties, and many costumes later,
their dreams came true. The land came first.
A piece of property on Highway 21, zoned for
a club. Then the house. A 1936 double shotgun
house donated by friends. Then , the Reverend
E.J Williams( aka Wild Bill and His Crazy Organ),who
played many years on Bourbon Street in his youth.
He moved her, he really moved her. Then came
the transformation: a long four months of lots
of hard work donated by friends and family;
lots of blood, sweat and beers. Birdies Roadhouse:
The little house with THE BIG SOUND. Featuring
good times all the time.
Bombay
Club
• New
Orleans
T he Bombay Club is exactly the sort of place
that many people dream of enjoying in New Orleans
but cannot seem to find. It's decadent, but
tasteful--delicious, but not stuffy--filled
with great live music, but never deafening.
New Orleans , so well known for her music, food,
and spirits, has surprisingly few venues that
offer a high quality sampling of all three.
One of these rare places is The Bombay Club
, a lovely candlelit spot tucked away in the
heart of the French Quarter at 830 Conti Street
. Although the club is located just a short
half-block from the infamous Bourbon Street
, its ambiance is miles away.
