It's all in your smile that brings
All of the special things about you
ETG, that's too bad The Troubadour was closed but Whiskey a Go Go sounds really cool. Lots of history there too-that's where Buffalo Springfield made a name for itself, so there's an Eagles connection.
Oh that would be so great! But traveling across the country may be too much for Randy. I could be wrong though.
Right or wrong, what’s done is done
It’s only moments that you borrow...
Thank you NMB, that is so sweet of you to say! We saw several bands there, but the one we were there to see was Last in Line which features guitarist Vivian Campbell of Def Leppard and other former Dio members. My daughter was so excited Vivian gave her a guitar pick (made her trip)! You are definitely correct in saying a "rough" crowd, it was. If she didn't already have tickets, I would have nixed it.
I'm jealous of this picture...we drove all around and searched directions for a shot like this.
NMB, I didn't realize you had visited LA or maybe you live there, I would have picked your brain before we left.
Thanks LuvTim and Soda!!
Vivian Campbell is a talented guitarist. Someday, I'll shore up my courage and venture inside the Whisky.
I've been to California a few times. I love to swim and hike and there are a lot of wonderfully detailed resources online for that (and anything else people like to do).
These trails look fun! Tuck them away for your next trip maybe

Thanks NMB, I will definitely remember this for future endeavors.
I was thinking on what I said about the Whisky last night and I do not mean to put it in a bad light....the crowd I was speaking of was rough to me, as in it had a more heavy metal vibe to it and it was just not my thing. Please accept my apologies.
Oh there's no need to apologize surely - what you said was helpful, not offensive. None of the club patrons bothered you, right? We all understand being in a setting where you don't feel entirely comfortable.
As I've mentioned in other threads, I'm a huge Doors fan and it bothers me a bit that I haven't been able to work up the nerve to go inside the Whisky. I felt intimidated about the Troubadour too. I imagined it to be this "hipper than thou" place where the people would be able to spot an awkward rube from out of town. But no!! It was actually friendly and nice. The bench seating reminded me of summer camp.
