CRAZY CAT GOES TO THE FAIS DO DO

For our readers who are not from the Cajun Country, a Fais Do-Do is a Cajun dance party featuring Cajun bands playing accordions, fiddles, and washboards. The songs consist of Cajun French music. Its origin came from parents needing to bring their babies to the dance. The word Do Do is pronounced, &ldquo,dough dough&rdquo, because the older relatives and the music lulled the babies to sleep. In the &ldquo,Parc aux petits&rdquo, which is a room in the back of the dance hall, meant to isolate the babies from the noise and allow the parents to &ldquo,Laissez les bon temps rouler,&rdquo, let the good times roll, the babies sleep while the parents dance all night!_,
