Brian Collins at the Boot - Friday, May 6, 2016

We are mainly known for cooking up the best BBQ in the Des Moines area, but on occasion we like to offer our customers even more than that. Every once in a while we are able to feature some incredible live entertainment on our Wobbly Boots Roadhouse stage. Friday, May 6 we are thrilled to have Brian Collins performing. 


Brian Collins is slated as a true southern soul. His "Healing Highway" album's leadoff single, "Never Really Left," earned both national and international attention for the singer. He was named a CMT Discovery Artist, and the music video for his single spent seven weeks in the top five on CMT's Pure 12-Pack Countdown. 

His sound can be described as a cross between the Eli Young Band, Bob Seger, Bruce Springsteen, and Mark Broussard. Heavily influenced yet truly unique. Brian has shared the stage with the likes of KISS, Will Hoge, Sister Hazel, James Otto, the Zac Brown Band, the Smithereens, the Marshall Tucker Band, Georgia Satellites, Alabama, Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Barenaked Ladies, and many more.

Brian credits his songwriting inspiration to the many different aspects and experiences in his life. One of these was the passing of his sister, Karen Collins, from leukemia in 1985. He co-wrote "She Will Ride" with close friend and Zac Brown Band bass player, John Driskell Hopkins in honor of his sister. 

Karen's song became an anthem for finding a cure for cancer when Brian and Blue Light Entertainment co-founded the non-profit She Will Ride Foundation, which is dedicated to helping finance the search for a cure for cancer and leukemia in this lifetime. All contributions are redirected to several children's charities like St. Jude's Children's Hospital, National Children's Leukemia Foundation, Kingdom Kids, and other charities of choice.

Blue Light Studio is the studio dream that became a reality for Brian in 2005. He personally designed all of the recording rooms. These rooms have hosted the production/engineering of albums and tracks for many well-known entertainers: Skid Row, Tony Lucca, T.I., Twista, Frank White, Nic Cowan, and Tim O'Donovan to name a few. In 2013, Brian, along with partners Santos Vasquez and Tommy Smith, formed the LLC of Blue Light Entertainment. Blue Light Records came next in 2015.

Dale Blue - The Barefoot Entertainer at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse

The best BBQ restaurant in Des Moines is lucky enough to have some amazing entertainers grace our stage occasionally.  This Saturday, January 23, 2016 we are thrilled to welcome back a taste of the Lake of the Ozarks - Dale Blue! Although he was born and raised in Missouri and still calls the Lake area home, he has easily won the hearts of all of us at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Clive. 

Dale Blue is also known as the "Barefoot Entertainer."  A nickname given to him by Mark Barrett from Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Osage Beach.  That all started years ago when Dale frequently played at Dog Days Bar & Grill.  It was an obvious way to start referring to the singer because he always chose to perform without shoes.

According to Dale, in 1983 his career consisted of playing gigs in lots of high-end hotels where he was required to wear suits and tuxedos, and he was expected to play songs that were currently popular on the radio.  He couldn't stand it!  After three years of doing that for 5-6 nights a week, he promised himself that he would never play somewhere he didn't want to play or perform any music that he didn't love.  Also, he vowed never to wear shoes again while performing.  Guess that happens when you're trapped in a suit for too long!

Well, the music that Dale chooses to play now can be described as a unique combination of blues and rock.  Along with the humor and aura of fun that he injects into each of his performances, this show is one that is sure to entertain everybody in the crowd, no matter what your age.  Dale loves passing around the tambourine and inviting audience members to join him onstage and be a part of the fun.  Below is a small taste of what you can expect this Saturday from a past performance at the old Osage Beach Wobbly Boots Roadhouse.    

Our Des Moines BBQ restaurant is the place to be this weekend.  Come on by Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Clive Saturday night and experience this incredible entertainer for yourself.  Every time that Dale shows up with is guitar, amazing voice, and quick sense of humor, everyone has a great time.  He has built up quite a large following traveling around the Midwest, so make sure that you come in early to get the best seats.  Don't worry, though, because no matter where you end up sitting, Dale will make sure that you feel like a part of the show.      

Don't forget you can take home 16 oz. bottles of

Damon Dotson is Performing Live at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse

Damon Dotson has become a local favorite at the best BBQ restaurant near Des Moines.  He played here most recently last July, and we are thrilled to be able to have him perform again at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse.  Most of you probably know his voice by now, but here is a little background on this incredible performer.      

This local boy grew up in Okoboji, Iowa.   Damon made his way onto the Midwest music scene in 2003, and his fan base has been steadily growing ever since. From playing backyard parties and living rooms to packing venues all over Iowa, he has come a long way.  He now plays top venues all over the Midwest  

Damon has had the opportunity to open for musicians such as B.B. King, Willie Nelson, The Gin Blossoms, The Beach Boys, Kenny Loggins, Matt Nathanson, Tristan Prettyman, and Stephan Kellogg and the Sixers.  

One reviewer from the Des Moines Register wrote that Damon has, "the curly locks of Jim Morrison but more of a warmly romantic sound that veers between Dave Matthews and Coldplay."  No matter how you describe it, our customers will back us up when we tell you this guy is incredible and his show is not to be missed.

Come on out to Wobbly Boots Roadhouse on Saturday, October 3, 2015 and hear some of the best live music in Des Moines.  Stop in early for dinner, get your seat, and enjoy the show starting at 9 pm.  We are sure that you will be a fan.
