Swamp Pop Music Festival

Swamp Pop Music?? The name alone made me interested in this festival. The music was definitely entertaining. Lots of the people here were dancing to the great music. So I was a little thrown off at first because of a few things that I'm not used to seeing at any other festivals in Louisiana. For starters it wasn't outside. In fact it was inside a building that reminded me of my high school gym. Another thing that threw me off was not seeing much to eat. C'mon folks this is Louisiana right? Home of the best food in the world. The food choices consisted of only jambalaya, BBQ, burgers, funnel cakes, nachos, and fries. The booze selection wasn't too bad as it was on par with other fests.....plentiful beer and daiquiris.But what will keep me coming back to this fest for yrs to come is that all the funds go to cystic fibrosis research. I love anything to do with helping others. I also had a blast hanging out with some of the most warm-hearted and jovial people I have ever met. Louisiana knows how to party!!!Was this fest a little redneck? Definitely. It is in Gonzales right?!!Are you going to come to the Swamp Pop Music Fest for the food? Probably notWill everyone there be dancing? You betchaWill you have a good time? HELL YEAHSo what exactly is Swamp Pop Music? I'm still not sure after listening to over 12 hrs of music at this fest but damn it was a crazy fun little festival.

Great festival to hang out with friends and family, listen to live music in a comfortable temperature setting environment. The music is not deaf defying, especially near the back. My kid is having a blast and the emcee announced that funds go to a good cause, cystic fibrosis.
