Show Notes

Starting out playing on the streets of the French Quarter, he now fronts the reformed STRAWBERRY with Jeff Treffinger of the Geraniums and Tribe Nunzio on guitar. Tonight they join René in the Feral Zone to reminisce about the glory days of the Mermaid Lounge and Pussycat Caverns as they cast a jaundiced gaze on the future.
