With a name like Pootenanny — we wrongly assumed it was a raunchy soul singer — we felt like we needed to find out who or what the heck was happening at the White Water Tavern on Saturday, May 7. We found out it’s a local take-off on a hootenanny, with the webbed network of the Salty Dogs/Amy Garland Band/Big Silver guys, who get together and invite other area artists bring their instruments and sit in.
Says Amy Garland/Salty Dogs bassist Mike Nelson, “It’ll be us, along with Conway native Chris Lipsmeyer, as well as any other local musician we can con into coming down to the White Water Tavern to play songs we all don’t know. The only redeeming part of the show is that the musicians play semi-nude.” Music starts around 9 p.m. and admission is $5.
