Larry Keel Experience @ Gypsy Sally's - Friday, January 12th, 2018

Gypsy Sally's
Washington, DC
Friday, January 12th, 2018
Doors: 7:00pm
Show: 9:00pm
Support: The Woodshedders

I have it on good authority that Larry Keel Experience [Larry Keel (guitar), Jenny Keel (bass), & Jared Pool (mandolin)] are "ready to whoop it up big time!!" tomorrow when they headline Gypsy Sally's in Washington, DC! Larry Keel is a lot of things: he's a flat pickin' guitar legend, an avid fisherman, a lover of nature, peace, and equality...but one thing he's not is a liar. So, when Larry tells me they're "ready to whoop it up big time!!" I tend to believe him. 

If you've been there before, you know how small Gypsy Sally's is (est. 300 capacity), so don't sleep on getting tickets!

My favorite description of Larry Keel and his playing comes from Greensky Bluegrass...dobroist?...dobroer?...dobro player, Anders Beck: 

“Larry is the yin and the yang...he will break your heart with a waltz, but he can also scare the hell out of you in the next song. He plays on the edge...no, strike that - he creates genius guitar solos while staring over the edge and laughing maniacally.” — Anders Beck, Greensky Bluegrass

The Woodshedders will be getitng the party started, so don't be late!

Leftover Salmon - The Living Room Tour 2017

I have a few guidelines that I try to live by:

• Be kind and give more than you take.
• Trust people, until they give you a reason not to.
• An Ed Hardy face tattoo is a legitimate reason not to trust someone.
• When one of your favorite bands is coming to town, you don't think; you buy the ticket and take the ride!

I did a bit of a doubletake when Leftover Salmon announced their acoustic "Living Room Tour" a few months back. I've been lucky enough to see Leftover Salmon in some pretty intimate settings, but seeing Gypsy Sally's on the lineup announcement seemed too good to be true. Gypsy Sally's has been a fantastic addition to the DC music scene over the last few years; often booking bands that should be way too popular for a venue of that size (Gypsy Sally's has a capacity of only 300). Kudos to their talent buyer, Dustin, for bringing some of the nation's best musical acts to the Georgetown waterfront! Unfortunately for the chronic procrastinators out there, tonight's show at Gypsy Sally's is officially sold out. But fortunately, Leftover Salmon has 2 more shows this week within a 2 hour drive of our nation's capital...and somehow there are still a few tickets available for purchase.

Rams Head On Stage (308 Capacity) - Annapolis, MD - Tuesday, 11/14/17 | Purchase Tickets Here
The Broadberry (350 Capacity) - Richmond, VA - Wednesday, 11/15/17 | Purchase Tickets Here

Don't sleep on these shows, friends! I'll be on the Scene to photograph the DC, Annapolis, and Richmond shows, so if you see me, please come say hi.
