​Big Earl has been a staple at the world famous Flora-Bama for over 25 years. Every Friday and Saturday night in the Dome, belly laughs echoed all the way down to the beach, bushwackers flowed freely and inhibitions became non-existent. The memories that have been made over the years from this 4 hour set of musical and comedic genius each weekend will live forever in the hearts and minds of thousands of customers and most certainly in the walls of the Flora-Bama.
