K&W in Laguna Beach -- Saturday, 15Aug2015

Somebody had managed to beat Tom to The Corner (probably Fiddle Girl), so he texted Warren and said that he'd be playing late. So we went anyway to get the no-longer-Fingerhut side at 8:30, since it hadn't been too bad last week.

But, as the stock traders say, "Past performance is not indicative of future results", and it was pretty terrible this week. We moved over when Tom quit, and had some good interaction for a while, but then it died. Is summer over?

But for some reason, there was a lot of dancing. One couple danced to several different songs, and then the guy came up and secretively asked if I knew "Yellow Bird". I do, so I played it, and they slow danced. Must have been "Their Song".

We also had several random Woo Girls dancing, and then a couple that did some amazing, "Think You Can Dance", zooming around, clutchy, jumpy, tango-style dancing. Mikey the Greeter was there, and when the guy went into the ice cream store, he said to the lady, "You guys make a great couple!", and she said, "Oh, we're not a couple." Excuse me?!?

Anyway, that short spell of Good after so much Bad didn't really make the evening worthwhile, so Warren and I are going to investigate maybe finding a spot up between the Pageant of the Masters and the Sawdust Festival, since most folks park somewhere and then go to both, walking between them. Maybe we can find us a better Second Choice...
