WHO: Raw Oyster Cult Featuring Dave Malone, Camile Baudoin, and Frank Bua (of The Radiators), John “Papa” Gros and Dave Pomerleau (of Johnny Sketch) and Special Guests plus DJ Gris Gris
WHEN: 11/11/11 – Doors @ 9pm / Show @ 10pm (5 months to the day after the final Radiators show ever)
WHERE: Tipitina’s Uptown @ 501 Napoleon Avenue
PRICE: $15 (For Tickets, Go Here)
WHY: 11/11/11 will mark the largest reunion of the Radiators since the band called it a career after 33 years back in June after a 3-night blow out at Tipitina’s. On Friday night at (approximately) 11:11 p.m., guitarists Dave Malone and Camile Baudoin, along with drummer Frank Bua, will represent 60% of the Rads’ original lineup when they perform as the Raw Oyster Cult (killer name) at Tip’s alongside Papa Grows Funk’s John “Papa” Gros and Dave Pomerlau of Johnny Sketch and the Dirty Notes. Fish Heads shouldn’t miss this stroll down memory lane that will hopefully help tide over those still left wanting more since June.
