About us

Rock, Folk, Blues, Pop, Jazz, and sometimes Country! This group thrives on the energy of the live performance of singer-songwriters, classic bands, and up and coming musicians. We often patronize venues without reserve seating; 9:30 Club, Birchmere, Rams Head Live, Jammin Java and the lawns at Wolf Trap, Merriweather Post, and Jiffy Jube Live. Didn't buy an advance ticket online, that means you didn't get ripped off on the service charge. Need a night out with nice people? Sign up last minute and buy a ticket at the door from the house or from someone with a lame no show friend. Rain or shine, lets go see and hear some great music and drink a little beer and wine.

  • Santana + Doobie Brothers: Oneness Tour 2026

    Santana + Doobie Brothers: Oneness Tour 2026

    Jiffy Lube Live, 7800 Cellar Door Dr, Bristow, VA, US

    Tickets to summer promotion
    TicketMaster

    Santana is calling his tour with the Dobbie Brothers the Oneness 2026 Tour. This is a similar name as he used in 2024 with the Counting Crows. In fact we had this same pairing of these two bands in 2019 (pre covid). The set from Santana in 2024 at JIffy Lube Live was fantastic so lets go out and do it again. We have seen the Doobie Brothers over the past many summers and their shows have been very good as well.

    Live Nation's Tickets to summer promotion will sell you $30 lawn seats for this show, or you can also find $40 seats in the rear corners of the pavilion.

  • Chicago and STYX

    Chicago and STYX

    Jiffy Lube Live, 7800 Cellar Door Dr, Bristow, VA, US

    Groupon $20

    We will be out at Jiffy Lube Live on a Monday night in July so come join us for some rock and roll. Chicago (a rock and roll band with horns) and STYX are doing what they are calling the Windy Cities Tour as both claim their roots as being Chi Town. We will be on the lawn, front and center as normal. A $20 Groupon is still available as of Memorial Day.

    Bios:
    Two of music’s biggest bands, legendary multi-Platinum rockers Chicago and Styx, got their start in Chicago, and now they’re joining together for their first-ever co-headlining tour, bringing the best of the Midwest to venues nationwide with “The Windy Cities Tour – All The Hits…Your Kind of Tour” that kicks off July 13 in West Palm Beach, FL and wraps September 6 in Los Angeles, CA.
    “We are excited about the summer tour,” says Chicago trumpeter Lee Loughnane. “Chicago has never toured with Styx before so it’s going to be a lot of fun, we’re looking forward to it.”
    “In my early days of live performing I had several mentors who were kind enough to let me join in and play with them despite not being able to read charts,” adds Styx singer/guitarist Tommy Shaw. “Rod Henley, Ricky Parsons, Bobby and Larry Moore, Eddie Wohlford, Wimpy Jones, Country Boy Eddie and others gave me a shot. And I am thankful for that. By the time Chicago released their first album, I had enough experience to begin learning their amazing music on my own. Now, the idea of Styx touring with Chicago is a major thrill all on its own. We can’t wait to spend the summer with them!”
