This bar, dating back to 1934, is Bourbon Street's oldest live music club that is still in business. The famous door refers to the front door of the bar that many celebrities and musicians have autographed. Inside there is a sunken dance floor situated in front of a glass-brick stage. The atmosphere is dark, loud, neon and raw. The acoustics and lighting effects enhance the performances of the live New Orleans soul and blues bands. At 11pm, the live music ends, the older folks leave and the bar transforms into a dance club for the younger crowd.
