I'm not a local, but: Every Monday night, jam session at Donna's, corner of Rampart and St. Ann on the edge of the quarter. Starts at around 9:30-10 p.m. and goes late. Wednesdays and Thursdays are usually zydeco night at Rock 'N' Bowl (Mid-City Lanes), a bowling alley with live music. A fun place. For Celtic, check out the Irish place on Toulouse and Decatur in the Quarter. For jazz, the best *listening* room is Snug Harbor. People actually pay attention to the music. For specifics, check out Offbeat's music listings on their web site at www.offbeat.com And have a great time!
