Los Lobos more bluesy alter-ego, Dos Lobos is comprised of Los Lobos members David Hidalgo on guitar, accordion and vocals and Cesar Rosas on guitar and vocals with the added support of Enrique “Bugs” Gonzales on drums, percussion and Juan Perez on bass. On September 1st, Dos Lobos made their way to Fleet Week in San Pedro, CA as part of a larger bill that included 80’s rockers Quiet Riot.

According to the taper of the show, voodoostrat, “when Dave walked on stage he was facing three full Marshall stacks. The guys showed up with only guitars. The look on Dave’s face when he realized he had to use the Marshall amps was priceless… he was like a kid at Guitar Center.”

The show was on the bow of the USS Iowa Battleship—a unique venue to say the least.

Los Lobos mixed up the show with plenty of originals, traditional songs and covers. Among the covers, was a blazing version of Jimi Hendrix’s classic “Little Wing.”
