June 3, 2014

Bottle Rock Napa 2014 was definitely a complete success. We told you about The Cure and now let me tell you about how Weezer took over Day 2 of Bottle Rock with their spectacular set. One thing is for sure, Weezer knows how to insure everyone is having a good time. They put on a set filled with fan favorites and the crowd was singing along and dancing. The crowd was filled; from the stage all the way back to the vendor booths. Even in the blistering heat, people couldn’t help but dance around as if at one big party! Definitely a big highlight for me at this year’s Bottle Rock. Check out our photos from the amazing show.

The Highlight of the 2014 Bottle Rock Napa Festival was The Cure!

June 2, 2014

For the past three months we have been bringing to you our featured artists and bands for the 2014 Bottle Rock Napa Festival. The festival was a great success, very well organized, plenty of parking, shuttles, food vendors, water refilling and phone charging stations. We will continue to bring you our recap of this successful festival but first we wanted to bring you the Highlight of the 2014 Bottle Rock Napa Festival. I don’t think it comes as any surprise, that The Cure has been chosen as the highlight of this year’s festival. The Cure played on Friday night and after a long day of great bands, good food and lots of fun. They started promptly at 7:30 and treated us to a nonstop 2 1/2 hour set. When I mean nonstop, I mean literally nonstop. There were no show breaks, or small talk. They were there to perform and did everything to insure that we all heard our personal favorites as well as some songs that haven’t played live in years! Due to the [Read More]

Doña Oxford birthday bash a blast at Brennan’s in the Marina By Patrick O’Heffernan

June 2, 2014

Doña Oxford makes people move. Fresh back from playing onstage with Albert Lee in London and in the studio backing a new album with Van Morrison, Doña Oxford brought her high octane R&B and boogie woogie soul train to Brennan’s in Marina del Rey to celebrate her birthday (39, of course). And Brennan’s may never recover. She came on at 9:30 pm and played three sets, and at one point, even the sports fans at the bar gave up following ESP and joined in the locomotion. There were even dancing folks bopping in the tiny space in front of the restrooms doors. It was a hoot. Doña brought the full band for her birthday present to the audience: the amazing British transplant Colin Ryan on electric guitar, Bill Brennenstuhl keeping it moving on the drums, Fred Johnson playing bass and adding a few hallelujahs, and the never-stop-dancing backup vocal singers Robin Daléa and Jamila Ford. Doña conducted them flawlessly from her center spot in front of the big Hammond keyboard, flashing hand signals while her [Read More]
