AVO returns to Ruta Maya on August 5

That’s right, you can see AVO return to the stage on August 5, 2010 at Ruta Maya. The show starts at 9pm with Shandon Sahm covers Sahm (son doing all dad’s {Doug Sahm} songs), and then AVO around 10:30.

We’re just coming off of the Cash Bash – Armadillo World HQ’s 40th Anniversary month gig at Threadgills… what a hoot that was. Thanks to everyone who made it out for good times that night. This Ruta Maya show will have more time with AVO onstage.
