Went there on my first honeymoon 100 years ago--hope someone can remember the name. Didn't they serve Hurricanes?

Hmmm.... good one. I was actually down there last week and got a pic of his statue. Don't remember the club though...

I think it was "Al Hirt's" or "Al Hirt's Supper Club". That seems to be the only hint that is strongly coming from all the sites I have visited "Al opened his own club...." An article on Ronnie Kole reads: It was also Al Hirt who brought Ronnie to New Orleans. Al asked Ronnie to alternate with his band at his new club on Bourbon Street. This he did for a few years, until one day Al said to him, "Kole, you're getting too big to be working opposite me...you need to have your own club." It wasn't long after that, Kole's Corner became on of the big three places to go when in New Orleans...the other two being, Al Hirt's and Pete Fountain's. http://www.ronniekole.com/bio.htm
