OK, so you've already had 3 paczki's and your stomach is a little dodgy...

Fat Tuesday on Johnny's blogs means Mardi Gras music, REAL Mardi Gras music

We've been doing this for years and years, playing the best Cajun selections on Fat Tuesday, the culmination of Mardi Gras.

He ran out and started learning all about it and better yet, buying and later downloading it.

The Balfa Brothers starting us off today with one of Johnny's faves, 'Parlez Nous A Boire'
