They are not just another brother act, but a trio of talented men so in sync with each other that the music just happens.
Los Lonely Boys will play at The Hangout in Gulf Shores on Friday, March 19, 2010.
Los Lonely Boys reflects depth everywhere via deep appreciation for family ties, deep admiration for their mentors, and deep gratitude for the opportunities that have come their way. And it comes through in their music, apparent in the songs they write from their hearts as well as covers they choose to share with their audiences.
On Friday, March 19, you can observe and participate in their special style at a venue that amplifies their generous souls: the gorgeous white sands of Alabama’s Gulf Coast beach.
You will find good food and great entertainment at The Hangout in Gulf Shores. Tickets are just $22 in advance or $25 the day of the concert, and can be purchased at TheHangoutAL.com.
For information regarding entertainment at The Hangout as well as other venues along the Alabama/Florida Gulf Coast, be sure to visit and bookmark this often-updated list of area performances.

The South Baldwin Community Theatre in Gulf Shores will draw a different crowd than usual on Sunday, March 7.
Sunday, March 7 brings the talents of three country music entertainers to Gulf Shores.
Accustomed to staged plays, musicals and revues, the audience that evening will be treated to a Grammy winner, a reality show star and a musical comedian—all thanks to special arrangements made by our own local 2008 Trop Rock Entertainer of the Year, Brent Burns.
The Grammy winner is none other than Linda Davis. She shared the award with Reba McEntire for Best Country Vocal Collaboration for their duet “Does He Love You?” that became a No. 1 hit. Linda is a popular song stylist who got her start in Nashville as a sought-after session singer.
Earning his big break as the first national champion of TNN’s You Can Be A Star, Lang Scott is an accomplished guitarist and vocalist. He is an MCA recording artist, and some of his songs have been recorded by well-known country stars.
Bill Whyte received the Country Music Association’s award for Best Large Market Personality during his career as a morning radio announcer. His songs are filled with lyrics that keep you laughing throughout his performance and after.
It’s not too late! You can enjoy this entertaining evening by calling 251-948-8863 now to reserve your seats. Tickets are $25/person for the 7:30 show. The theater is located at 2022 W. 2nd Ave.

Yes, it is true. The knights in shining armor are headed this way, along with a full entourage of royalty and commoners, entertainers and merchants.
Experience life as it was 500 years ago at the Renaissance Faire in Pensacola on March 6 and 7.
Catapult yourself back a few hundred years to the Middle Ages, to the time of Shakespeare. At the Renaissance Faire, you not only see life of much earlier times, but you become a part of it, interacting with the costumed enthusiasts who enjoy presenting the experience.
Pensacola’s Renaissance Faire is the only venue on the Gulf Coast to offer live jousting on horseback, complete with full Medieval armor.
Stroll through the fairgrounds to encounter many other glimpses into historical entertainment, including sword swallowers, magical wizards, fire breathers, dancers (Arabian, Renaissance, Irish and gypsy), jesters, jugglers, storytellers and more.
Renaissance food and drink will be available to boost your energy as you peruse the Medieval market, try your luck at games of skill, and ride ponies and camels.
Admission is just $10 for adults and $5 for ages 12 and under; children 4 and under are admitted free.
Join the fun this weekend, March 6 and 7, from 10:00 to 5:00 each day. You will find this unique event at the Pensacola Interstate Fairgrounds, 6655 Mobile Hwy., approximately one hour from Gulf Shores.
