Rock ‘n’ roll vets play The Pelican House

Rockabilly and rock ‘n’ roll will get patrons moving this weekend at The Pelican House. Baton Rouge’s own The Bedlamville Triflers kick off Friday night’s show at 8 p.m. Dash Rip Rock, a high-octane roots rock band out of New Orleans, will perform at 11 p.m. While the former band takes a nod from sounds such as Reverend Horton Heat and Brian Setzer, the latter has been touring consistently and released a new album in 2012, Black Liquor.
