Today! Cabooze "Crescent City Shakedown" Tipitina benefit for N.O. Musicians

Cabooze off the West Bank is hosting a live music benefit for the

Tipitina's Foundation with a plethora of legendary musicians. Tipitina's Foundation supports musicians of New Orleans find housing and gigs and replace instruments and more. This is an excellent way to directly donate funds to the musicians who lost everything from the hurricane.

The cost of the benefit is a minimum of $10 all of which would go to Tipitina's.

To see Koerner & Glover play together is relatively rare, worthwhile in itself, along with the other great players.

The stunning lineup is as follows (times are approximate):

4:30-5:10: Day Old Bread10:30-11:30: Butanes
5:30-6:10: Butch Thompson
6:25-7:10: Peter Ostroushko
7:25-8:10: Spider John Koerner & Tony Glover
8:25-9:15: Dean McGraw w/Big Wu
9:30-10:10: Paul Metsa
