VENICE .. THE BAND

What can I say about this great kick ass band. When they go full tilt electric it's as good as it gets. Switching to all acoustic.... CSN, even in their younger days, could not match them (well close). Theirs is the magic of brothers and cousins harmonizing. you can't top it when the same genes sing and play together. I've known Bill and Kip Lennon since I was 5 years old. Well , Kip wasn't born yet. My Mother is Kip's Godmother. They are my childhood and I love them. It's been so many years. SIDEBAR: theperfect waves breaking on Emma Woods outside reef was double overhead yesterday. I don't care what the reports, local or otherwise say. It went off for 3 hours yesterday morning.




Backstage prior to the show.

Nancy Sunfield and Patty. I went to kindergarten through high school with Nancy. In case the captions get separated from the photo it's meant to explain, it's 2nd to last pic.

My First Love sitting with my last Love. The girl with her arm around Patty is my 1st. Georgette was my high school sweetheart at Venice High.

SATURDAY DAWN PATROL

The pics I posted dated Friday were actually shot Thursday. Friday was the biggest day of the swell. Patty and I worked on the rig all morning. I waited for the evening glass off and went to the outer reef an hour before sunset in 6 to 7ft. glass.
Today, Sat a.m: waist to head high +
