Northern Virginia and the Washington DC area has an overwhelming local artist scene. Many bars/restaurants will have live music throughout the year and typically over the weekends.
Crowded Streets, a Dave Matthews Band Cover Band played at Fat Tuesdays in Fairfax Virginia over the weekend.
Crowded Streets has been playing in the local area for years and truly has the "DMB" sound. They play most often in the area at Whitlows in Arlington, Virginia. It was interesting to see them play at Fat Tuesdays in a much smaller venue. Fat Tuesdays has long been known as the "local dive" in Fairfax. Many times beer is served in plastic cups rather than glasses. Prices are good, food is decent but you go to "Fats" for the music.
