K&W in Laguna Beach -- Monday, 19Aug2013

We don't normally play on a Monday, but Warren wanted to go see some friends of his play and I wanted to go to the last Full Moon Drum Circle of the summer on Tuesday, so we made an exception. I guess all the other bands have given up for the season, 'cuz there was nobody else out, but although the tourist traffic was diminished, it wasn't altogether gone (and we made $106 and sold 5 CDs).

I asked one couple that looked like tourists where they were from and they had come form Norway. Then I asked another, and they were from far-flung Pasadena. You never can tell...

A guy came by and was taking a video of us with his iPhone, which happens fairly often these days. But this guy runs a website called "Alert the Globe" that apparently just puts up random videos of bands playing, anywhere around the world. Sure enough, he posted the video the next day, right there on the World Wide Web. He had come at a particularly opportune moment, 'cuz there was a family there and the two sisters had gotten up to dance while I played "Kiss the Girl" (far too fast). I snagged a few frames from the video to create the panoramic shot above.
