Geno Delafose & French Rockn' Boogie at Twist'n Shout - Zydeco 103

More Zydeco dancers...This was recorded at the Twist'n Shout nightclub in the basement of the VFW located in Bethesda, Maryland just outside Washington, DC - 9/6/98. This was the last event at Twist'n Shout before the facility permanently closed. However, during the 80's and 90's it rocked! RIP - Twist'n Shout!

I can recognize the Twist and Shout from many visits there. It was the first floor of a two-floor American Legion Hall on Auburn Ave., Bethesda, MD. Fabulous small venue for the biggest names in cajun/zydeco - the Bayou Potomac! Sadly, had to close because the American Legion liquor license wasn't valid for Twist and Shout sales. Management reopened for a few years at Tornado Alley in Wheaton, MD. Miss them both.
