The Powerhouse Gig

Well, considering that it was basically raining all day yesterday,

 IT WAS STILL A GREAT GIG!!!!

The audience was fun, the whole Chili Cookoff was tasty, and the Ducks were speedy!

Sophia belted out some nice tunes:

Max & Malachi were groovy -

Darwin is so serious!

Well, sometimes not...

And a lot of people showed up, it was a great way to spend a Saturday!

Our fans:

The guys -

Here's where we'll be playing on Saturday afternoon, October 20th at Del Mar's Powerhouse Park! Looks pretty nice, and they even have power outlets right behind the stage area. (This isn't surprising as it used to be an electrical power station for the whole area!)

Lots and Lots of Hippy Stickers

This is what REAL hippies looked like in 1968!
From a set of collectible stickers that were sold to kids with gum inside!

Who's YOUR favorite?

Or...

The Beatles ABOUT to Cross Abbey Road

We know what the Beatles looked like when they crossed Abbey Road.

This is what they looked like just before they did it! George is sitting on the wall behind them, he doesn't look too exited. Paul as always is concerned with how they look, but forgets to throw away the cigarette he just lit. They only had ten minutes to do the photo.

Don't know who the lady is, she looks like she's asking Ringo a question. Maybe it's his mom, their hair looks similar:

Osamu Tezuka's Jumping Film

This needs a soundtrack!
