French Kiss / Flying Start presents:
Richmond suffered another “too close to home” episode of gun violence last week. An all-too-vivid reminder of how much there is yet to do in regard to solving the thorny issues surrounding guns & violence. But there are a lot of good songs out there that involve guns – – songs about pistols, AK-47s & bullets; songs about outlaws & gunfighters both real and fictional; songs about shotgun weddings, young couples on crime sprees, mercenaries & more – – and the Lost Music Saloon will bring some of them your way during tonight’s show.
