The Illbillys: When are we playing? What, you're asking ME?
The Illbillys play music. This music takes place at what we refer to as, shows. These shows generally occur at fixed points in time and space, despite our determination to operate outside of these constraints.

Listed on this page are the shows that we are scheduled to play. Please be aware that we play many shows for private enterprises: Parties, country clubs, etc. While we would love for everyone on the planet to attend all of our shows, all persons are not invited to private shows, no matter how much we love each and every one of you.

FRIDAY
9.13.24
PUBLIC SHOW
NORTHSIDE GRILLE! Northside Grille has an inside AND an outside...which technically is true of ANY establishment of course, but this establishment's outside is an exquisitely pleasant place for us to play, and you to listen, eat and drink...not necessarily in that order. This is not to slight their equally exquisite inside of course. Face it, you'll be sitting in exquisite splendor no matter where we set up at Northside Grille.
Where: Northside Grille: 1217 Bellevue Ave, Richmond, VA
When: 8:30-11pm

SATURDAY
9.14.24
MIDLOTHIAN HIGH SCHOOL CLASS o' 84 REUNION!! Though it's difficult to imagine why anybody who was around in the 80's might like the Illbillys, they hired us, so we'll play them some music or something. It's a private show, natch!
Where: Richmond VA
When: 6-10pm

FRIDAY
9.20.24
O. RALPH PUCCINELLI GOLF TOURNAMENT! This is a private event! Need more information? Check out the O. Ralph Puccinelli Foundation!
Where: Richmond Country Club
When: 5-8pm

FRIDAY
9.27.24
PUBLIC SHOW
O'TOOLE'S MIDLOTHIAN! Never in the field of live music was so much owed by so many to so few. So what? So?! Honestly you don't owe us anything, but we sure do like tips. So.
Where: O'Toole's: 13919 Midlothian Tpke, Midlothian, VA
When: 8-10:30pm

SATURDAY
9.28.24
TARRINGTON OKTOBERFEST! The tradition of Oktoberfest dates to October 12, 1810, when Kronprinz Ludwig married Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen. Tarrington celebrates that memorable marriage with the consumption of beer, occasional wearing of dirndls and various entertaining contests of strength and agility! And also... the Illbillys, who were scheduled to play at Ludwig's wedding in 1810, but JB fell off of a roof and broke his nose. And nobody wanted to look at JB with a broken nose, much less hear him try to sing. Fortunately JB's nose has recovered fully over the past 214 years, so we're good to go. This is, of course, a private event.
Where: Tarrington Clubhouse, Midlothian VA
When: 4-7pm

SATURDAY
10.05.24
ILLBILLYS DUO @ a PRIVATE PARTY! Every so often the Illbillys Duo, previously known as Peter & Jeter, are deemed to be a lower-impact, percussionless musical solution for a lower-impact (yet really fun), percussionless (but still plenty loud if you want it to be) event. This is one such event! As aforementioned, it's a private party, so don't go prowling the back roads of Midlothian looking for us that night.
Where: Midlothian VA
When: 6-8pm

SATURDAY
10.12.24
HEMMINGWAY MEWS CUL-DE-SAC! Illbilly JB lives in a very nice neighborhood, which embraces the concept of the cul-de-sac. This term dates to the early-mid 18th century: In French, cul-de-sac means...bottom of the sack. Which, I'm pretty sure we can all agree, isn't a particularly palatable translation, but isn't that true of most French terms? They sound way better in French, so let's leave 'em right there.
Whatever the French may think about JB's neighborhood, we're playing there, which we do on a biannual basis! This is what we would call a semi-private event, for local residents...but if you would like to attend, reach out & we'll probably be able to make it happen!
Where: Tarrington, Midlothian VA
When: 3:30-6:30pm

FRIDAY
10.25.24
PUBLIC SHOW
O'TOOLE'S MIDLOTHIAN! Another shamrockin' night with the Illbillys @ O'Toole's! Cozy up to the peat fire, wolf down some corned beef 'n' Lucky Charms, and I'm now out of mildly offensive Irish stereotypes!
Where: O'Toole's: 13919 Midlothian Tpke, Midlothian, VA
When: 8-10:30pm

SATURDAY
10.26.24
IT'S A BIRTHDAY PARTY! ...which is a private event. I mean, would you like it if some person just showed up at YOUR birtdhay party? Well, bad example, of course you would.
Where: Salisbury Country Club, Midlothian VA
When: 7-10pm

SATURDAY
11.02.24
PUCCINELLI PIG ROAST! An annual event which is loved by the Puccinelli's firends and neighbors, but feared by pigs. Not a public show, but if you're a pig, we can probably work something out.
Where: Richmond VA
When: 7-11ish

FRIDAY
11.08.24
PUBLIC SHOW
NORTHSIDE GRILLE! Once upon a time, there was a really nice eatery/drinkery/live musicery called Northside Grille. And guess what? It's still called Northside Grille, it's still really nice, and you should totally come and see us there!
Where: Northside Grille: 1217 Bellevue Ave, Richmond, VA
When: 8:30-11pm

SUNDAY
11.10.24
PRIVATE PARTY! Sometimes, folks pay us to play just for them! At private events! Parties! Shindigs! Hooper-doos! Honestly I couldn't tell you a whole lot about this specific hooper-doo, but other than the fact that you probably aren't invited, there's really not all that much you need to know anyway.
Where: Midlothian, VA
When: 3-7pmish or so

SATURDAY
11.23.24
TAD'S KIDS OYSTER ROAST! Tad's Kids is a Richmond-area organization that's dedicated to supporting families battling childhood cancer. This is a private event, but one imagines that a hefty contribution to TadsKids.org might just get you an invite!
Where: Tuckahoe Plantation, Richmond VA
When: 5pm

MONDAY
12.23.24
THE HORN'S CHRISTMAS ADAM PARTY! Which event we play every year, or at least every year one of us doesn't fall off of a roof in November! I hereby announce my ignorance as to why this delightful event is known as the Christmas Adam Party. I have never, not once, seen Adam Sandler there. This is not a public show, and unless you're Adam Sandler, you're probably not invited.
Where: Richmond VA
When: 7-11ish
