Nick Lick and the Hickies, a bunch of funny and talented musicians from Acadiana, recorded this back in the early 1990s when Kaliste Saloom Road was being improved and the entire community was completely frustrated by the construction and ensuing traffic. But just change it to Verot School Road, or I-10, or almost any major roadway in Lafayette and it still rings very true today!

From Nick Lick and the Hickies:

It's a parody of "Groovin'" by the Young Rascals and "I Love L.A." by Randy Newman. Robert Burton performed the music track and Pat Onellion sang lead vocals. You might recognize a couple of people in it! Also, pay close attention to the cruise down Kaliste Saloom for a few other surprises!
