Most people say that fish doesn\u2019t save well overnight, but Leftover Salmon<\/a> might just prove that theory wrong.<\/p>\n

After 30-years of success, jam band Leftover Salmon will bring its newest tour, Stories from the Living Room, to the Vilar Performing Arts Center on Friday, Feb. 15, at 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a stripped down version of Leftover Salmon,\u201d said Greg Garrison, the band\u2019s bassist. \u201cWe\u2019re traveling with a full living room set with lampshades and paintings and all that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The idea for the living room set came from the band wanting to do something new, to \u201ctake it to the next level,\u201d according to Garrison. The idea came about when the band decided to promote a book written about them, \u201cLeftover Salmon: Thirty Years of Festival<\/a>,\u201d which details the band\u2019s history. Between the songs, the members of Leftover Salmon will also discuss the band\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

Not to fret, however. The changes don\u2019t mean that the show will be low-energy.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery night there\u2019s a couple people concerned that we wouldn’t bring the same certain energy,\u201d Garrison said. \u201cBut every time, without fail, after the show, they\u2019re like \u2018that was awesome!’\u201d<\/p>\n

Additionally, Garrison thought that the living room-style show would be a great fit for the Vilar Center specifically.<\/p>\n

The show is meant to be a special one, featuring music from the band\u2019s entire songbook, as well as tunes that haven\u2019t been released yet, making for a unique and compelling show.<\/p>\n

Finally, the show also celebrates Leftover Salmon turning 30 \u2014 a feat that not many jam bands accomplish.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a testament not only to (founding members) Vince (Drew) and Drew (Emmitt) hanging in as long as they have, but also the fans sticking through lineup changes and tragedies we\u2019ve been through as well as the changes in music,\u201d Garrison said. \u201cNot a lot of bands that have made it that far.\u201d<\/p>\n
