I just experienced another live music show. And Britny Lobas is back, but as The Petticoat 5. The rocking duo including Garrett Jay Brown.
It was an evening of firsts. And I am glad that I had the opportunity to experience it.
I had never been to 360 Uno before. I was not sure what to expect and I was in for the wild ride.
It had been some time since I had seen Britny and Garrett play live together in Britny's band back in January.
The greatest part was that neither of them knew that I was coming or even thought that I would be there. When I rolled through the door, both of them exploded with excitement. And that was even before the music got started. It really set the tone for the evening. And I feel like it only went up from there.
A two-hour set within an intimate setting, surrounded by Italian food, and a group of people that came along. I was all set.
I was overwhelmingly surprised when they covered Grace Potter's "Medicine" which was a song I had not heard Britny perform live in a great number of years. "Careless Whisper" was another surprising cover. As well as playing some original songs that they wrote together. It was a wonderful blend. I am hopeful to hear "You Gotta Run" played live in the future under whatever combination of musicians that Britny falls in. It's a great song. One that she wrote alongside her father.

I have always been amazed by the talents of Garrett Jay Brown with his knowledge of multiple instruments and his level of dedication to his craft. When you mix that with Britny's unmistakable voice, it equals one hell of a good time. The kind that makes you forget about life for a while. And that's the kind of escapism that I look for when I find music.
After knowing Britny for seven years or at least following along with her music career, I suddenly realize that I do not get many chances to see her perform live. Yet I was so glad that I got that chance because under those circumstances and the location of that venue, I probably will not get another chance to see another live performance there again. So, I am glad I had that experience, for sure!!
