Bourbon Street

For those of you who have never experienced Bourbon Street, the best way I can describe it is “A Disneyland for adults”! In about six or eight blocks there are dozens of live music venues. You can have Rock in one bar, Cajun in the next. Blues across the street and Jazz on the corner. All are playing through open doors at full volume. Ninety nine percent of them are no cover charge and the entertainment is there to be had for the price of one drink per set. All drinks are served in plastic glasses and you are allowed to drink on the street and take your drink with you as you change bars. Some of the bands are mediocre, some good and some very, very good. All are very entertaining.

It gets very crowded and loud at night with standing room only in the bars with the best music. It is all fun and everyone has a good time.
