MR. BOOGIE WOOGIE

The brand new show 'Bourbon Street Bash' is a nonstop display of virtuosity including Fats Domino's biggest hits like 'Blueberry Hill ', 'I'm Ready ' and 'Walking to New Orleans' but you will also enjoy quite a few songs from Dr. John and Allen Toussaint’s, enormous repertoire. Songs like 'Holy Cow', 'Working in a Coal Mine' and 'Mother in Law' makes resisting foot tapping and singing along impossible. ‘Bourbon Street Bash’ is a celebration of recognition, an explosive music spectacle, full of fire, virtuosity and humor, with an overwhelmingly charismatic horn section, a one of a kind tribute to the music of New Orleans.

First show back in Tucson after the summer.

Mr. Boogie Woogie with Larry Lee Lerma on bass and Chip Ritter on drums. $10 donation at the front entry table benefits the Gospel Rescue Mission.

Solo performance by "the Hardest Workin' Man in Boogie Land". Free admission.
