Much like its local competitor, the joint features two baby grands sharing a stage. But unlike Big Bang and the Shout! House, Howl's nightly shows involve four players working the keys at once.
Here's a description from their press release:
Two piano players perform for one hour after which they yield the stage to two new players, who join them for what is known as a "four-way" changeover. Occurring at the end of each hour and lasting for two to three songs, this hourly encore allows the piano players to incorporate additional instruments (drums, guitars and saxophone) into the performance.
Sounds fun, yo.
Local clubgoers can snag a few deals at the grand opening party tonight, which starts at 7 p.m. sharp. RSVPing to the guest list via Howl's Web site (by clicking the link that says "Kiss FM and KEZ Listeners, Click Here!") and get in for free, or become a fan of the place on Facebook and a complimentary alcoholic beverage.
Drink up and have fun, y'all. We'll be out there armed with our cameras covering the opening, so be sure to smile big when wanna snap your picture. Maybe we'll even see Davy, who's still in the Navy, and probably will be for life.
