Get ready for another edition of Open Decks at Poor Boys, the free weekly session fueling New Orleans’ underground community.
Open Decks w/ LVCD at Poor Boys takes place on Tuesday, January 6, 2025, starting at 9:00 PM and going ’til 2:00 AM.
Hosted at Poor Boys (1328 St Bernard Ave, New Orleans, LA 70116), this intimate neighborhood venue known for its a laid-back bar, patio vibes, and a loyal local crowd that always shows up for a good time.
It’s first come, first serve during the first half of the night. Sign-ups open at 9 PM at the bar, and the list typically fills early, so arriving on time is key.
Each DJ gets a 20-minute slot, with any genre welcome. The focus is intentionally no-gatekeeping — a space for DJs of all levels to share their sound and build confidence on a real system.
Once open decks wrap, the night shifts into $2 song requests for the rest of the evening, turning the floor over to the crowd and keeping the energy high ’til close.
Sets run on CDJ-3000s, so bring a Rekordbox-compatible USB or hard drive, or your own laptop and cables. Weekly rotations, surprise guests like @kilobauud, and a consistently supportive crowd make this one of the best training grounds in the city. Free. Open format. Community-driven to the core.
Local open deck performers curated by LVCD (Lucid Dreams).
