Wayne Toups Live Friday Night In Lake Charles For Cowboy Block Party

The McNeese Cowboy block parties so far in 2024 have been phenomenal. Three Thirty Seven and The Bag Of Donuts have already played this year to packed houses and this Friday night, get ready for the Grammy Award winner Wayne Toups.

The Cowboy Block Party is on the campus of McNeese State University and is presented by Lake Charles Toyota, Deep South Productions, and the McNeese Athletic Foundation.

The first Cowboy Block Party of the year was awesome. Due to the weather, we had to move the party inside the Legacy Center and Three Thirty-Seven packed the house and did a terrific job. Last Friday, the Bag Of Donuts packed the Grove as people were dancing and singing along all night.

Now get ready for this Friday night, September 20th, and make sure to bring your dancing shoes as the man himself, Wayne Toups will be performing live in concert and it's free to go!

That's right, it's free to attend and open to all ages. Bring your lawn chair, and your ice chest with your favorite alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages, and get ready to see and hear the Louisiana music legend himself, Wayne Toups.

Get ready to hear all your favorite songs like Please Explain, Tupelo Honey, Take My Hand, That's What I Love About My Bay, Two Step Mamou, Standing In The Rain, Free Me, True Love Don't Leave Me Blue, and even some classic Cajun songs.

The Cowboy Block Party takes place at the corner of McNeese and Common Street in South Lake Charles at the Grove next to Lot A parking lot. There will be food trucks and drinks for sale just in case you don't bring any food or drinks with you.

The doors open at 6:00 p.m. and Wayne Toups will hit the stage a little at 7:30 p.m. and will play for two hours straight. Then get ready for Saturday afternoon for some tailgating before the McNeese Cowboys take on Alcorn State in the hole Saturday at 7:00 pm.

Here are some ideas of things to cook for your tailgate party.
