The Radiators...New Orleans funk (1 Viewer)

[Baloney Sandwich]

I always enjoyed the Rads and saw them several times when I used to live out in San Francisco. Lately, I've been listening to this live show from The Maple Leaf in Nola way back in 1985 and it is solid from the start of the 1st set through the end of the 3rd set. Pretty much makes me wish I followed these guys closer than I did...anyone else a fan?

I'm sure I've seen a dozen shows or more, but none in the last 10 years at least, probably 15. A great live band back in the day.

How do they compare to Galactic?

Galactic is great but definitely a different band than The Rads especially post-Houseman.

Huge fan. Seen em probably 50 or so times (I worked at Tipitinas in NO back when they played there a couple times a month).

Still wear a tshirt from their "Too Stupid to Stop" anniversary tour.

I am not nearly high enough to listen to that.

Youve got to give the fishhead music a try.
