There is nothing that compares to a warm summer night in the south, when the beer is cold, music loud….and the crawfish are boiling! I think we plan our weekends around those little craw-dabbers. One of our favorite local hot spots is the Crawdad Hole on Lakeland Drive, by Smith-Wills Stadium. It looks like a run down shack, but its walls are put together with pieces of history and pictures of friends. For a few bucks you can get a big bowl full of some good mud-bugs, but if you aren’t a fan…they also serve fresh boiled shrimp. I also love their potatoes and corn. On the weekends, they bring in local bands to rock you through the night. Every year around April, they have the Crawdad Hole Music Festival, a day full of music and fun in the sun.The weekend of March 14th, you will find my crew and I at Shuckers on the Rez. It is their annual Crawfish boil, with fresh crawdads by none other than the Crawdad Hole. They set up big tents and picnic tables and everyone fills up on food and beer. This is a great place to run into everyone from leather wearing, Harley ridin’ biker crews to polo’d out frat boys. We don’t care who ya are as long as you dance! The bands this year include some of my favorites. On Saturday from 7-11 a wonderful band straight from the Bid Easy called MoJeaux will be rocking the house. We first heard this band last year and instantly fell in love with their incredible talent for both singing and rapping. They will be followed by The Chill, covering all of the classics! On Sunday, local favorites Will & Linda will start the day followed by The Pates, Snazz and then the Tip Tops, who look super fun! Come early to get a parking place! Look for me down front with my Barnett Bend Queens….
