Who here remembers the concerts at “Slicks” in St Martinville in late 70s?

Don’t remember Slick’s, but I did see Lightnin Hopkins at Jay’s in Cankton.

Is that where New England and Nazareth were on the bill, and where Frank Marino cancelled? If so, I was there that night. The Nazareth singer fell on his arse. Good show, but we were there to see Frank.

I remember hearing radio ads all the time for Curl's (sp?) in Mansura. Never went, I was too young.

Slicks was rocking for a long time. Somehow I never made one of those (too young to "legally" get in for a lot) but I could have made a few. Seems like Zebra was there once a month

I remember the Texas Club in BR in the late 70s and/or early 80s had a ton of good acts come through there as well.

Yep. Remember it well. Saw most of the shows on your list. Peter Frampton also played at Slick's during 1980 or 1981.
