Thompson  "It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it." David Stanowski To find older articles; use Search or Site Map |

Wednesday 15 June 2005 Louisiana Casinos There are 17 casinos in Louisiana, and most if not all of them need live music as part of their entertainment package. The casinos closest to Galveston are in Lake Charles/Kinder and Shreveport/Bossier City. The best opportunity for Galveston bands may be with the brand new L'auberge du Lac Casino, since it just opened at the end of May, so they don't have any established relationships with other musicians.
