| re: Baton Rouge, The music is here (Dig Article) Posted by ToddKillsSquids on 10/5 at 1:07 am to TheDoc this is pretty laughable. the varsity gets maybe one decent concert a year. baton rouge is a horrible music town. basically everything baton rouge gets can be summarized as "college shite." to see some good concerts, you have to head to new orleans.Reply • Back to Top |

| Baton Rouge has been getting some really great shows I know of a couple of traveling bands that like playing Baton Rouge over New Orleans. Nola is a great music city, but it's over saturated with shows just about every night Hell, in the house of blues they'll have two shows going on in the same night at the parish and the HOB Reply • Back to Top |

I've actually met the guy once or twice. Varsity is awful and Spanish Moon gets a bunch of mediocre indie bands. I'd love to know places that get decent shows in br though. Reply • Back to Top |

| Spanish Moon has Melvins and The Sword playing soon. I wouldn't consider them mediocre. Reply • Back to Top |
| Spanish moon has had some great bands playing there this last year Reply • Back to Top |

| That sums up BR well... Its a college town, without a strong local music scene... You will get occasional good shows and, if lucky, will get a good regional band pass through town a few times on their way up or flame out... Just happy there are still people willing to get those bands in, many have thrown in the towel... This post was edited on 10/6 at 1:32 pm Reply • Back to Top |
