Friday Vibes
Sometimes I get a chance to simply play drums. Usually I have a long list of stuff to practice for upcoming gigs, recordings, etc. It’s good to simply play along with some thing that has no point or no meaning or no goal.
Dancing Doggy
Here’s a video of a woman dancing with her doggy, while I shoot video with one hand, and play steel drum with my other hand, at today’s Father’s Day Celebration at Atria Retirement Community in Newport Beach.

Rehearsing For Celebrations
Rehearsing for many upcoming celebrations. 🎶😎
Having a celebration? You know who to call. 😬
Long Beach Museum of Art Wedding
Today we performed for a wedding at the Long Beach Museum of Art. It seems like I have performed here my entire life, but it’s been a while. This particular wedding was postponed twice due to the pandemic. We had a fun time and I will share more vids from this event a bit later.
Have you visited the Long Beach Museum of Art?
Rehearsal
Bobby and I.
Rehearsing for a few upcoming gigs.
Looks like we’re back in the flow.
Lot’s of new gigs and music on the horizon.
Noodles After Dinner
Trevor and I noodlin’ after dinner.
This sort of stuff happens around here sometimes.
We’re back!
So, we’re back.
Here’s a few seconds from Thursday’s Doctor’s Luncheon at the Los Alamitos Medical Center.
When the pandemic started, our scheduled luncheon was the first gig to postpone. Since then, we have performed only a few times, for very special occasions, by choice. It seems fitting to start back up with the postponed event from over two years ago.
I’ve booked over a dozen gigs for this year. There will surely be more. All in due time.
So yea, we’re back.
Having a celebration? Looking for some live music that will create a fun and happy vibe for your next party?
I know a band.

Hi!
It’s been awhile, I know.
This pandemic has been a challenge.
I don’t have to tell you.
I am fine.
Fortunate.
Grateful.
I trust you are somehow managing to find and sustain your balance.
Since I’ve been home a lot, I’ve had a chance to work on recordings and other new projects.
It’s been good.
