Mother-in-Law Lounge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mother-in-Law Lounge is a pub and a shrine in New Orleans, Louisiana dedicated to the memory of the late rhythm and blues singer, Ernie K-Doe. The lounge is a historical icon in the local community. It was completely underwater during Hurricane Katrina in 2005. With the help of the Hands on Network, the lounge reopened its doors on 29 August 2006, on the first anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. Mother-in-Law Lounge is owned and operated by the late K-Doe's widow and musician, Antionette K-Doe.
