Last week, Deke Dickerson was in Hollywood filming segments for an upcoming documentary on the life of country music pioneer Lefty Frizzell, who inspired Willie Nelson and once toured with Hank Williams Sr. While the 55-year-old seemed to have an epic time out west, he especially loved how you can dress any way you want to in The City Of Angels.

“If there’s one thing that’s great about this town, if you want to wear blue hair or spandex shorts or 1950s-era Western suits, it’s all just part of the freak show that is Hollywood,” he wrote in an Instagram post.

Dickerson heads back to the east coast for the 9th annual Rockabilly Battle Royale, in which a group of out-of-state acts (and local radio favorite Reverend Billy C. Wirtz) come together to put on a handful of impromptu rockabilly jam sessions.

Tickets to see Rockabilly Battle Royale Round 9 with Deke Dickerson inside the music hall at New World Brewery in Tampa on Friday, Jan. 19 are still available and start at $15.
