Birds of Satan/Chevy Metal

When: Wednesday, July 9, 2014
Where: Maui Sugar Mill Saloon, Tarzana CA
Accompanied by: Tiff, Lisa, and all the other gorgeous girls
Genre: Rock N Roll


Yeah, I know, I know...we get all the great shows here in Southern California. Yes, we are spoiled. I know how lucky I am when shows like this pop up within a 50 mile radius from home...and while there are never any guarantees that we will get in, we sure as fuck try when the opportunity arises. How could we not, right?  

Lord knows you would given the chance, right??!!

Once again, the boys announced on their Facebook page a surprise show!!  $10...Hell, I toss down 10 bones at Starbucks on any given day, so a night like this was a bargain for sure!!

Tiff, Lisa and I hit the road at 5pm with fingers and toes crossed that we'd get there in time to get a spot for this intimate gig. And damned if it didn't pay off. Not only did we get in, we were saved a spot at the front of the stage with the rest of the crew that was there to get their rock on (or rocks off, depending on how you look at it)...

Yup, smack dab in the front. Seriously, it was just crazy close. And yes, that is Dave Grohl... I guess that another one of those surprise factors added to the night. 

The first half was Birds of Satan tossed along with a handful of Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders...

The second half was Chevy Metal..which was where Dave joined the guys and appeared to have a damn good time. As did we.

I don't know how many more of these shows will pop up in the future of my lifetime...reflecting back over the years, I suppose I've had more than my share and not to be too terribly greedy, but dammit, I want more. I make no apologies for my addiction.
