My man, Doug Kershaw tearing up that stage, I just love him!! He is fantastic here, and he’s definitely a Ragin Cajun!❤❤ He rips that File Gumbo up, loved Kershaw since I was 15, saw him 1st on American Bandstand in 1970, huge fan ever since. I love his fiddling, he’s probably my favorite fiddle player of all time, I played violin, as a child and later took fiddle lessons, because of Doug Kershaw.
This man is amazing! His voice sounds the same as 30 yrs ago. Goes to show if you love what you do, take care of your health and in this case his voice.He is a music blessing. My entire family just loves this man!
I remember my mother, Floraine Antoinette Leaman Alba, would rock me to bed with the encouraging Cajun words "Fe do do, Lawrence..mon chere." Those were the best times of my life in Monroe, Louisiana c. 1949. Now, at 70 and a lifetime if education, world traveling and much expunged Cajun heritage, I take comfort in this vibrant, rich original American music and it's magical linguistic resilience. Etois!
Saw this guy--- and even got to learn from him!--- this summer at a fiddle camp. At age 70, he's still just as crazy as he ever was, and so inspiring to watch. Couldn't help but burst out laughing from joy and move my feet. My dad's been a professional fiddle player for 30+ years and still had to work to keep up in Kershaw's classes. So much talent!
On a CMA show years ago Doug performed as he walked down the aisle to the stage. By the time he reached the stage nearly every person in the audience (including the stars) were on their feet either dancing or at least NOT standing still.
I love it. Notice about the 1:42 mark when Doug looks back at his son on drums. Doug knows he's wearing those drums out. Awesome video. Thanks for sharing it.
WOW, First time I seen him Was on TV (circa 1960's). Ulgier than a mud fence in a bright green velvet suit) but DAMN COULD HE PLAY THAT FIDDLE! Got his albums
You know I have known of Doug's music since I was a young man, however I just really started listening. He puts on a great show and will be playing at the New Orleans jass festival. I'm going see him Aaàa Eeeeee
Oh Man, Uglier than a train wreck but man he tears that stage up! Are you sure he,s in his 80s? My whole family loves him. I first learned of Mr Kershaw I think 1970? He and Jo El Sonnier are Cajun Music incarnate!

I saw doug live when I was a teenager at the michigan state fair he was the opening act for lynn anderson. Fell in love with his music, great performer, so energenic.
I like where a radio announcer said, "I understand you play 28 musical instruments". To which Doug replied no, I now play 29 for I just learned how to play the jazzoo". What a sense of humor. I have seen him play 6 different ones on stage, so am impressed by his ability.
Doug wore out bows on nearly every song he played. He always had a barrel of bows on stage by him too so he could grab a new 1 when needed. I was able to see him 2 different times.
Does anyone know a Cajun song with the lyrics ‘Hey, Ramon, do you know where my princess is’ Ramon replies’ ‘I don’t know, do you know’ My daughter and I heard ithis song on Interstate 55 on radio station 100.3 Thanks
I've had a mad crush on this man since I was 13yrs old! He was also responsible for me falling in love with Cajun and zydeco music.
I have, too!!

He went through a long period of definitely not taking care of his health but then he righted the ship so to speak and he's been good ever since.
Mmmko
My favourite is Louisiana Man and been listening since the early '70. Love the sound and the man!!
He's 85 and still at it! 💗
oh i love this man so good on the fiddle
And supposedly 27 other instruments.
back in 1959 and 1960 the first country song I ever heard was Louisiana Man by Doug and Rusty, and I was hocked on country for ever.
It's probably been 40 years since I saw him play in Santa Cruz, CA....and he still sounds the same and lookin good!

Damn, that boy goes hard.
Excellent!!

Love it
Have you ecer seen him do Orange Blossom Special? He wears out three bows doing it.
Yup, in Reno 1986
Doug wore out bows on nearly every song he played. He always had a barrel of bows on stage by him too so he could grab a new 1 when needed. I was able to see him 2 different times.
Amazing artist and musical genre. An awesome talent. I enjoyed and think I'll subscribe.
I still ain't never figured out how he could bow that fiddle the way he does, jumping around all crazy. Geez!
Dang! This video ended about 2 minuets too soon! It cut off Louisiana Man about half way through!
Dit is zooooo goed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very talented goodies music God bless
WONDERFUL!
LOVE DOUG>>>
G O A T !!!!!
Tout bon pour danser ça !
Who loves playing music more than Kershaw and the keyboardist at 5:20?
Does anyone know a Cajun song with the lyrics
‘Hey, Ramon, do you know where my princess is’
Ramon replies’ ‘I don’t know, do you know’
My daughter and I heard ithis song on Interstate 55 on radio station 100.3
Thanks
He was 72 when he did this concert. I think that's his son playing the drums.
grandpa said you are IT!
Doug lives in Eaton Colorado and has a big ranch!
+Robert Sullivan He is 80 years old. I've loved him my entire life.
I would love to be there
excelente
Pretty hot but there are playback problems, especially audio.
plop888 It's got to be the download. I saw these videos a couple of years ago and there were no issues.
Cool
Rage on Doug!!
Looks an awful lot like a PARTY
I swear the drummer is the fiddler for the "lost bayou ramblers."
Pfrizzle 101 NO. THAT'S ONE OF THE SONS OF THE MICHOT BROTHERS. LES FRERES MICHOT.
The drummer is one of Doug's sons...
That is my Grandpa's cousin
is there any RUSTY KERSHAW Video out there - please post it .... I'd love to see this guy one time ..... thanx
Got it ta Leave ve it
The video is cutting out a bit. I think it's just a little out of synch. He played his own stuff.
He fills out those tight pants so nice! 😉
where can I find the whole evening? It was on tube, but now I can't find it...
Search, artist Doug kershaw Cangun music . Blessings Embraces Bearhugs,enjoy.
His best song was a lament. Did you ever think I’d cry for you? Will I be reported for saying coonass? Aaaaa yeaaaas
