While I’m sure everyone’s having fun wearing skinny jeans in the desert heat, paying $18 for a bottle of water, and inexplicably wearing Indian headdresses at Coachella, the best show out West this weekend will easily be Brian Wright, Sally Jaye, and Brother Sal’s Hank Williams Tribute show at Zoey’s in Ventura. Obviously there aren’t any video clips from this show, since it hasn’t happened yet, so I went ahead and used that one of Brian and Sally doing “Stormy Waters,” to give you a digitally compressed glimpse of what these two can do together. They give me that feeling I suspect other people get in church– the good feeling, not that one you get when the collection plate comes around and you’ve only got a five dollar bill and no cigarettes.

Brian’s just back from a really successful European run over the past few months. Rumor has it, he’s doing an acoustic set off his new album House on Fire before the Hank Williams tribute starts. If I manage to stay sober enough to remember the details, I’ll write it up next week, but I wouldn’t count on that.

Should be a hell of a show… or you can head up to Coachella and pay $300 to see a bunch of musicians performing on their laptops. Your call.
