There may have been rain and wind in Marin, but at least there was power, so

Quite the performance

The Young Guns were a group of kids from 16 to 7 1/2.  They were fantastic players who drove from all over the southeast to play last night, they'd never met each other before sound check.

Son Andrew and I saw my favorite band The Chameleons again, his third time with me.  This ranks as one of their best shows for me....incredible passion and energy throughout!

First opening band was my second time seeing them, Lovina Falls. 

Lots of great music, and got a couple nice pics: one with Reg Smithies of The Chameleons; he doesn't pose for pics that much and when he does, he points his finger at his picture partner.  I got to do the same. And Valerie Forgione from Lovina Falls took a nice pic with me as well.

James Taylor in Lake Tahoe.

He sings the songs he wrote as a young man, only now with an old man’s voice. He has still got it.

^^ After decades of loving them, I finally got to see them 2 years ago.  Will also see them later this year too.

Me: went to a nearby town's annual Multi-Cultural Festival.  What a time!  Great people, gifts, food, and music.  Had very good Indian street food, bought a small sculpture from Zimbabwe and mini-paintings from France (now relocated here, a follower of Daniel Venjean).  Saw music from people who are from Mexico, Guatemala, Venezuela, India, Africa, and Haiti.

Wonderful time was had, met a few very nice people and had some nice chats with the vendors and some of the musicians.

Some pics.  In the 5th pic where the Indian woman is dancing, the guy in the red and yellow shirt is a good friend, known him since i was in my lower to mid single-digits.  He is the drummer for the African band fronted by the man next to him, seen in the next two after that.  For one of the bands, there were two couples - one with a child - who did some very nice salsa dancing!
