- **Event Description**: Four professional guitarists, a live rhythm section, and a full ensemble finale at Prairie Dog Brewing. Limited to 250.About this EventOur last showcase sold out with 145 people through the door, so we're back with a bigger room and a new lineup.The name's a bit of a joke, by the way. There's no judging panel and no scorecards. Just four professional guitarists, a proper rhythm section, and two hours of great playing.Here's how it works. Each guitarist plays a full set backed by Adam Dowling on drums and Justin Kudding on bass, the same rhythm section from Vol. I. Sets are longer this time, so each player gets room to stretch out. At the end of the night everyone's on stage together for the finale, and Matty McKay will be joining them for that.Playing on October 6:Aaron Young - guitarist, composer, and producer.
