June 25, 2012
June 22, 2012 If you have never been to the Wild Salmon on Foreman Drive in Lafayette, you are in for a treat.
A classic hole-in-the-wall bar (with dollar bills, signed/decorated hanging all over the ceiling and walls), the Wild Salmon surprises and delivers from its eclectic live bands and open mic nights to its exotic burgers.
June 20, 2012 Louisiana’s LeRoux, and The Boogie Kings kick of Fourth of July festivities at Paragon Casino Resort on Tuesday, July 3 in the Mari Showroom.
June 20, 2012 Marc Broussard and Roddie Romero are teaming up tonight for a live acoustic show online. It's on StageIt.com. Ttickets are $4.00.
June 19, 2012 Have you made your 4th Of July plans? I did this afternoon. While I was on the air, I spotted Chubby Carrier in the lobby. He stopped by to do a voice-over for "Red, White And Boom."
June 18, 2012 A few years ago, Donny Osmond was in town for a performance at the Heymann Center. He & Jim Brickman stopped into KTDY for a visit, and to get some work done on Jim's weekly radio show. Donny came into the studio & visited with me for a couple hours.
June 17, 2012 On Memorial Day, I posted a story about the veteran I was thinking about that day. It was my late father, Harold Wiley. Obviously, there's much more to tell. Dad was left- handed. Of his 5 children, I'm the only Southpaw.
If Whitney Houston hadn’t already left an impression on the world, she sure is leaving one since her passing in February, an event we still haven’t fully come to terms with just yet.
The Born This Way Ball tour might be delighting tons of little monsters overseas, but there are others who aren’t so happy with Lady Gaga‘s latest stage show. According to WENN, an official at Thailand’s Culture Ministry has berated Lady Gaga over her use of Thailand’s national flag during a performance in Bangkok last month.
When Madonna takes a break from her busy pants dropping schedule on her MDNA tour, we imagine she sits in a room, continuously tells herself how wonderful she is, and just thinks of ways to not only shock us normal people, but even some of the top celebrities too. After all, she is Madonna.
June 14, 2012 Vince Gill takes the Mari Showroom stage Saturday, July 21 at 9 p.m. Doors open at 8 p.m.
Gill has sold more than 22 million albums, and won18 CMA Awards, including 2 Entertainer of the Year awards. He's a member of the Grand Ole Opry, and 27 time Grammy winner. Vince was inducted to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2007.
