I grew up BR in the 80s and 90s and would like to know more about this story

The Caterie fire was one of those events I was in disbelief the first time I heard it reported. Total disbelief.
I know what you mean. Disbelief that it was happening. But at the same time an absolute thought of “yeah, surprised it took this long.”

Not me then. No one gave a shite. Everyone was better off.

Loved that place. Hit most of the bars in BR in the 80’s but that became the Friday and Saturday night hangout late in my LSU years. Always a band and no cover.
The Socks
The Shoes
JT and the Gutter Sharks
Contraband
Henry Gray
Can’t remember the other bands.

I remember their "Kill the White People" t-shirt, lol
Loved the Caterie but was really sad when Shanahans closed. Drive by that building all the time and it brings back some great memories.

Solid arson move by the owner of the shopping center to get out from underneath some bad debts.

Was this before or after the same owners torched Fairway View club?
They burned The Caterie first.

Ha. You just reminded me of that song. Would be funny to hear it now days and see the shirts.

We used the sing the shite out of Kill the white people at frat house. I guess mockingly but very mockingly.
i remember the socks and the guitar guy.
JB doesn’t ring a bell, but i remember a jimbo or something. We all lived in Lakeview Apts at the time. (Mom was recently divorced at time) Wendell Tilley was a friend of mine, Ritchie Morrison, (Rest in Peace), Daryl can’t remember his last name, few others. I went to Goodwood, and twin oaks elementary, Brad Leblanc, if you are on here l. I was your best friend in 5th 6th grade. lol

Ask your brother if he remembers Valerie in those snake skin boots and paint on jeans

in the early 90's there was nothing better than finishing up class around noon and heading to the Caterie to drink the afternoon away with $5 pitchers.

Of course busing expedited BR's decline, though with the demographic shift in southern cities it would have occurred eventually anyway
Baton Rouge had a lot going for it. Pretty solid public schools, Capital City, LSU etc. It would look completely different today.
