3. Maple Leaf

RIVERBEND.   Pressed tin walls and a narrow dance floor are part of the charm of the Maple Leaf. Live bands play genres like Zydeco, rock, blues and funk. Because the club is close to both Loyola and Tulane Universities, the Maple Leaf attracts a diverse crowd that includes college kids, professors, tourists and hard-core music aficionados. The venue is also one of New Orleans' premier Spoken Word locations. The club has been hosting a Sunday afternoon poetry series for two decades and poets take the mike at 3pm. Call ahead for listings and cover charges.   (© 10Best)

In the Uptown neighborhood, the "Rebirth on Tuesday," a Maple Leaf tradition, takes on a new meaning since Hurricane Katrina. The Rebirth Brass Band has appeared at the Maple Leaf on Tuesday nights for nearly 16 years now, and the weekly show now brings together neighborhood residents, college students, and out-of-town visitors to celebrate the city's rebuilding.
