Free Music & Market tonight, rain or shine

Zydeco, Cajun and blues favorites Buckwheat Zydeco, Lil' Buck Sinegal or Steve Riley will share the stage in Opelousas tonight — and admission is free.
Opelousas' Music and Market concert series will rock the St. Landry Parish courthouse steps from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. Friday. In case of rain, the concert will shift indoors to the Delta Grand Theater, 120 S. Market St., Opelousas.
It'll be a major-league Louisiana jam at an event that this week will also promote local jams and jellies.
The combination of an enthusiastic audience and top-notch musicians will set this week's concert apart, Riley predicted.
"We did a few tunes together at a benefit a year or so ago along with C.C. Adcock and Lee Allen Zeno, and it was magical," Riley said. "I'm looking forward to recreating it all for a longer set this time!"
