Mickey Joe,

O'Flaherty's [in the French Quarter] holds sessions on Wednesday nights for Irish tunes (very small now) and [most] Saturday nights for ceili dancing. Starts 7:30-8:00PM

Liuzza's 1518 N Lopez St 504-943-8667 on Thursday's with a mix of acoustic stuff and some great musicians. Doesn't start before 9:00

There's a jam on the North Shore of Lake Ponchatrain on Tuesday's don't have the details at hand

There's an Sunday (?) very contemporary, plugged-in open mike at Neutral Ground Coffee House 5110 Danneel St (Uptown) Phone: (504)891-3381

Depending on when in March, there are parades around town for the Saints Patrick and Joseph

Anybody know any others?

Here's more on the "jam on the North Shore of Lake Ponchatrain on Tuesday's"

"The Northshore Country Dance & Song Society is a nonprofit organization founded in Slidell, Louisiana in 1999. We enjoy playing and listening to traditional European and American folk music in all its variety, and hope to see the appreciation of folk traditions continue through the years. Each year, we sponsor a variety of special events, including jam sessions, contra dances, concerts, and children's programs. All events are open to the public, and all ages are welcome! Do you enjoy playing or listening to American & European folk music, including Celtic, bluegrass, old-time, Cajun, country and a touch of miscellaney? Come to a weekly acoustic jam session Tuesday evenings at 7:30 at Coffee Online, 1925 Second Street, Slidell, LA, (504)781-4600."
