Who's in the band? What kind of music? Looks like I see acoustic, electric and slide guitars. Cool!

We do a house concert every few months featuring local musicians. This time the feature artists were a couple of friends, and the music was mostly covers from the 70's and 80's. A few people who were invited are also musicians, and each sat in for a few songs. Our previous concert, last Valentines Day, was strictly acoustic, but this time we asked the musicians to bring a sound system.
Anybody whose living room will accomodate a dozen chairs or more can do this. Just find a local musician you like and ask them. We do these as a pot luck dinner, we don't charge an attendance fee, but we suggest a $15 tip, and the musicians have never walked away with less than $150/ea. Musicians like this kind of venue because, unlike a club gig, everybody listens, and they get exposure to people who haven't heard them before.
