Richard Gonzmart, the fourth generation caretaker of Tampa’s famed Columbia restaurant, has a band, and he’s bringing it to another one of his restaurants this weekend.

The Lint Rollers, featuring the 72-year-old restaurateur on guitar, plays ‘60s and ‘70s rock, but can’t stay up that late. So the band is setting up outside Ulele in Tampa Heights for a no cover show that could go even later than the 8 p.m. end time if the guys manage to stay awake.

There is no cover for Richard’s Early Bird Concert on the lawn at Ulele with the Lint Rollers happening Friday, May 9.
