Concerts in Los Angeles this weekend (Friday May 16 and Saturday May 17)

[CoasterMatt]

I'm not sure if anybody else here is interested, but there are a couple of shows happening this weekend that I'm especially interested in...

I know at least one other person on the board is a Stevie Ray Vaughn fan, if you want to see some amazing electric blues guitar, a real legend is playing Cozy's on Ventura Blvd. Friday night - Guitar Shorty. $15 cover, doors at 7, show at 9:45

Here's a clip of Guitar Shorty at the Blues by the Bay event last year

On Saturday, at another favorite venue of mine, Crash Mansion L.A. will host "The Smithereens" - they do a great live show, and there are a few opening acts, along with a neat gallery space and places to hang out.

Doors at 7, 18 and Up.
