Now THIS is an Interesting Concert Idea

All I can say is I wish I'd been there.

Mike Keneally and Bryan Beller surprised a full house at the prestigious Lost Coast Live concert series set in an historic Humboldt County town. The Lost Coast Live events, produced by DC3 Entertainment, have a tantalizing premise: each concert is essentially a musical blind date-- no one in the audience knows in advance who's going to appear onstage. Despite (or because of) this lack of information, adventurous and curious music fans are drawn to the shows, causing each LCL to sell out weeks in advance. Production values are first-rate, showcasing gifted musicians with sparkling sound and rich visual effects. In addition, all income from ticket and merchandise sales goes to local community causes. Mike and Bryan's warm, spectacular versions of Keneally songs wowed the enthusiastic crowd for an hour. They topped off their set with a rendition of Frank Zappa's "Inca Roads," during which Mike suddenly decided to wrangle his Taylor T5 guitar and the grand piano simultaneously, much to the delight of those in attendance.
