EPIC - New Band @ Fat Cats

I got a message on Facebook from a member of this new band:

Roadside Louis and The Dusters, will be appearing in Fat Cats Jazz and Blues Club from October 1st thru January 15th!

:D

Blues band Roadside Louie and the Dusters is a New Jersey band that has backed up and performed with blues legends James Cotton, Bo Diddley, Jr., ...

Well I go on epic on 1/15 so I guess I'll miss them. Boooooo.

It appears they are rotating the talent on the EPIC every 4 months. That's great news, as it will always be "fresh" then!

The bad news? I still have to wait 3 more changes to I get to cruise the EPIC! :eek:

Darn, I was really looking forward to hearing Slam Allen and Co, so hope the new band is equally entertaining. On the plus side, assuming you don't sail Epic more than once every 4 months, you should see different entertainers each time.

There are a couple youtube videos if you search for them. They look like a lot of fun.

Thank you so much for the info! After hearing all the rave reviews about Slam Allen I was a little depressed to learn he was leaving the ship before we cruised. I took the advice of another poster here and looked up Roadside Louie on YouTube, and I'm psyched to see that it looks like they put on a pretty rockin' show as well :D

I have to agree! I looked at a couple of their utube videos..they look like a LOT of fun!

I'm 'fixin' to find out for sure in a couple of weeks! :D

They have also played with Slam Allen. I expect that is where the intro came from. If they are half as good as Slam they will be still be the best thing on the boat!

Here they are performing "Red Hot". They look great. Can anyone compare them to Slam Allen???

I'm quoting myself here....Just went to YouTube and there are a few videos of the Slam Allen band.

Yea, but you'll get to see Slam Allen:D

New group...Louie and the dusters. talanted but never did pack em in like Slam Alan did. Not my style of music. This was the last week for the Wildfire duo.....they did pack the atrium and fat cats . We liked them a lot. Wes Johns was also very good.

Wildfire....last week? Vacation or for good? do you know?

Slam Allen will be back in Fats Cats on that sailing, and TRUST ME, he & his band rock the house. And a few times he sings the blues with such emotion and soul, it will literally make you cry. Dude is incredible. :cool:

Lydia said the Oct 2 cruise was their last week on Epic. Didn't say if they would be on another NCL ship or not. They were previously on the Pearl. We really enjoyed them!

I loved Roadside Louise and the Dusters....they are incredibly talented.......give them a chance....I literally spent five out of seven nights in there...and I was one of those people that were dissappointed to not have the opportunity to see Slam Allen.....trust me..... you will not be dissapointed.......the best bar server on the ship is in there as well......Tell the lovely Venus that Cheryl said hi.....she is the sweetest......
