fa-la-la-la-la

One thing about the big city livin (that I do not put to good use) is the amount of live music that comes to the area. But I try..
Monday, we went to the Infamous Stringdusters. Tom’s friend from high school plays the stand up bass. The group was playing in the first ever L.A. Bluegrass Situation hosted by Ed Helms from the Office and the Hangover movie. Yet another celebrity…. Really fun event and a good band.


And Tuesday, one of my personal favorites…. Rodrigo y Gabriela. These two are ah-mazing guitar players. They played at the Grammy Museum - a 200 people venue. There was a question and answer portion for about a half hour and then they played.



This is the video of the show they did earlier in the day for Jay Leno.


Another day in lovely L.A.

selebrity sightings

So living in LA, among all of the celebs, I occasionally spot one - Kevin Costner, Niki Hilton, girl from Dirty Dancing, Kiefer Sutherland (at a dive-bar no less)….. but just recently I had two in two days right outside of my work (MGM Tower).

March 16th - Eugene Levey

March 17th - Al Pacino
and he was looking haaaagard…
I am thinking about doubling as a paparazzi for a little extra income.  I was reading that just one picture can be worth thousands and who knows maybe I will get the million dollar shot and live happily ever… but for now google images will have to do..
