It’s Mardi Gras time!
Yes, Mardi Gras doesn’t actually roll around on the calendar until March 5, but down in Louisiana Mardi Gras isn’t celebrated on a single day – it’s a whole season of celebration. And here in Greater Nippertown, Mardi Gras weekend kicks off on Friday, March 1 when soulful singer-accordionist (and two-time Grammy Award winner) Terrance Simien & the Zydeco Experience raise the roof at the Cohoes Music Hall.
Kicking off the evening’s festivities at 7:30pm will be Woodstock’s Professor Louie & The Crowmatix.
Tickets are on sale now, priced at $28.
To Dale Metzger: Hey, pizza man!
