Louisiana Dance Hall presents:
DJ Talia here. Tonight is the Monday before Lundi Gras. Lundi (Monday) Gras is the day before Mardi Gras aka Fat Tuesday. DJ Bill will cover Lundi Gras next Monday night. I liked this story on Cajun country Mardi Gras www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2015/02/11/385480686/forget-beads-cajun-mardi-gras-means-a-grand-drunken-chicken-chase. Have chosen lots of tunes about country Mardi Gras, chicken chasin’ and locations that are definite spots to hit during the Mardi Gras season in SWLA. Hope you enjoy the ride.
