Charlie invited us to Cork’s in LA for a jam session. When we arrived we realized we were actually at a birthday party jam. It was a lot of fun and we enjoyed the performers. This is the legendary Phil Upchurch on guitar. The keyboard player performs on the Tonight Show. I have videos in The You Tubes if you are interested.
As I’m editing this blog, the photo below won’t turn ‘right side up’ for some weird reason and I’ve speent too much time messing with it. This lady had to be in her 60s at least. At first glance, she looks young. When she passed by and you got a look at the crow’s feet and the wrinkled hands… well, you know what I’m talking about. She was having a good time at this show and I hope if I live to be her age that I’m out there partying too ….sans the blue hair, thick eyeliner, and micro-dress of course.I found this poster in the bathroom hallway. Love Steve McQueen. I didn’t bring this poster home with me. hahahaha
We also attended the Trombone Shorty show at the El Rey Theatre in LA. Trombone Shorty had the crowd of about 1500 rockin’ and groovin’. Cool shot of the three of us. Again, I need a better camera! This one is great for outdoor shots but inside – yikes. The El Rey is very nice inside.
