Live From Lafayette- It's Wayne Toups!

The weather cleared later, just in the nick of time for Crouchstock which was held this evening, at Parc International, in downtown Lafayette. Crouchstock is an annual fundraiser in honor of a young man, Jacob Crouch, who tragically took his own life at 24 years of age. The Jacob Crouch Foundation, created by his parents, is dedicated to raising awareness and educating others about this problem in our society, in hopes of saving lives.

It was a triple header with The Richard Revue, The Lost Bayou Ramblers, and Wayne Toups and Zydecajun, playing an awesome 6 hours of fabulous Cajun music. We met a group of friends at the seafood booth for dinner. Of course, I could not pass up the fresh gulf fried shrimp. Cest' bon, cher! The Lost Bayou Ramblers were playing their well seasoned brand of traditional Cajun music that earned them a Grammy nomination in 2009'. 

 

Then the legendary Wayne Toups and Zydecajun took the stage, playing their hot as Tabasco, Zydeco-Cajun music and the rowdy crowd went absolutely wild! Wayne, you out-did yourself! Had no problem dancing off the fried shrimp dinner. It was a total blast and for a great cause that raised almost $50,000! Let the Good Times Roll!
