Hi everyone,

I hope you are all doing well.

Just wanted to share with you our participation to the Huntington Beach, CA. 4th of July parade with Danny Dean and the Men of Mystery.
We played a tribute to Cliff & the Shads perched on a float.

I am sitting on my amp as the float was in motion and I wasn't sure I could stand like the rest of the band.

We come in at about 1h:32':00" of the first video and around 11':20" on the 2nd one doing "Gee Whiz It's You".
For the friends on FaceBook (I almost never go there myself) I posted a very short clip of us playing "Theme for Young Lovers".

The clip was taken by a friend with his cell phone and I could believe how good the sound came out. We never sounded this good.Check it out
The friend who took the short clip will send it to me and I will post it.

You might want to watch the whole Hour an 1/2 video of the parade to grab a flavor of the US Independance Day.

Tonight, I will post our 2nd (and full) show at the Fish Fry in Seal Beach last Sunday.

Hi all,

Here is the direct link for the short "Theme for Young Lovers" clip on Facebook.

Unusually good sound for a cell phone recording, I wish he had recorded the entire tune.

For those who cannot see it, I will post the file as soon as I get it.

Blessings,
Abel
