VENICE .. THE BAND

Their Christmas show last night.
There was a problem with the sound system for about 6 or 7 min. at which point the band laid down their instruments and mics, stood close together at the foot of the stage and rang out a rendition of the Star Spangled Banner in an acapella of cascading harmonies unequaled.You truly have to hear them in a live performance. Check out www.venicecentral.com There are 2 tunes recorded live you can listen to. Put on a pair of headphones and click on the tune titled THINK AGAIN. Lots more pics (better) from there October show, Click on October 26th .. older posts

We met at Nancy's house for dinner before making the run from Ventura to Santa Monica.

The swell didn't miss the Ventura Overhead altogether yesterday but 1- 1/2 miles south at California Street, Ventura Harbour and the river mouth it was macc'n. The overhead was half the size I thought it was going to be although the swell was still building last night. Still dark outside as of this writing.

FRIENDS

One of these gentlemen is featured in each of the following photos. One is in them twice and our compadre Carl is in one of them. The 1st pic was taken in Santa Barbara in 1975, 2nd S.B. 1980's, 3rd 2009 in Sausalito and #4 I'll make a guess it was taken in the 1950's, when Southern California had abalone.
