Arlo Mckinley, “The Hurtin’s Done,”// GemsOnVHS™
Here’s one from the vaults, back in the before times, before even 2020. Arlo Mckinley playing at the Wild Bean on my trip to West Virginia. Arlo told me it was cool if this one came out, but then I couldn’t get ahold of him after that lol so if you’re reading this Arlo, all love, hope you don’t mind me dropping it now. Shout out Dave on the keys.

Blast from the past. My dad has been in hospice so i've been busy lately, digging through the archives for stuff I never got to. What do y'all wanna see next? Also, now is a great time to hit up our Patreon (patreon.com/gemsonvhs), appreciate the support while I can't travel as much. Cheers.

This is the video that introduced me to Arlo. I saw the thumbnail and thought, " Is that at the bean?" I was hooked instantly. Thank you for doing all that you do for the music scene!!!

Absolutely love this album. My friend got to see him in Ohio awhile back. Says he was clearly battling demons at the time. Hope he gets back out there soon.
