Featured Live Music Club
Located at 2828 Canal Street in the heart of Mid City, Chickie Wah-Wah is located in the building that before Katrina used to house a dive bar called the Canal St. Bus Stop. Back then, it was a funky down home joint that featured local brass bands usually once or twice a week. The musicians that are performing at the club are some of the best in the city. For example, blues musician John Mooney plays solo every Sunday night. Ed Volker's side project away from The Radiators, called Jolly House, has been doing regular shows over there as well.
To give you an idea of the sense of humor that Dale has, check out this official release from the club: "We can't guarantee ANYTHING except great music and a good time - if you follow a few simple rules! Times are approximate, we might change our minds about the cover charge that was advertised before we figured out it's not enough to pay the bands, some advertising may not be current because of deadlines we couldn't meet, some shows will have food, some may not, some artists may figure out they double booked themselves and then we're screwed but we'll find someone else...maybe even better!"
