Los Lonely Boys came through Chicago last Friday to play 2 all acoustic performances (7pm and 10pm). I got to check out the 7pm set with Gus T. Wilson from the balcony. Fun show for sure. Aside from being talented musicians these boys have a great sense of humor. Whether razzing each other a bit, or intentionally speaking while the other was trying too, they kept things light. Their relaxed attitude must have made the crowd feel comfortable as it looked like much of the people sitting at tables down front were not embarrassed to stand up and groove. Music was good too, Evil Ways probably being my favorite song performed but it was all solid.

The highlight of the show was no doubt when all three brothers joined together to play one guitar at the same time. Jojo jumping on higher up on the neck of Henry's guitar while Ringo came around to add a little rhythm on the body of the guitar. Pretty sure Gus has a pic of the whole thing somewhere in his fancy iPhone. A little more low key than Jim's night out at Airborne Toxic Event but fun all the same.
It was also nice to see Hacienda open up. Last time we saw these boys they were opening up for Dan Auerbach @ the Metro. Their laid back nature and casual approach to their set made it feel like we were in their living room as they rehearsed.
