| Ace Folks of San Diego, I’m over here listening to country music and spamming about gig fun! One week it’s Chet Baker, then it’s Hendrix, always Coltrane and Metheny, but yes, somedays the day demands the noble beauty of a twangy guitar strumming a G major chord on the 3rd fret. You know the one, right?
It’s been a good week with lots of surf. Lets start there with a few photos that Uncle Paul snapped while I bubbled around in the wild blue.  PS dropping in at Beacons.  PS surfing Beacons last week. The surfing blended in with professional studio button pushing and that dovetailed into a few gigs including a fun hit up in Seal Beach with pianist Scott Wilkie with a killer band. Here’s a photo from that eve.  Scott Wilkie on piano along with Jeff Olson, drums, Nate Brown, bass and Peter on guitar. Next up, I’ve been in a musical arranging hurricane pulling the sonic details together for next week’s big Christmas Eve concert in Del Mar. We’ve got a wild show in store and hope you can be there with us. Look below for the deets… And YES, the Roxy night of music is happening this week on Thursday night leading off with a solo guitar set, followed by a few guests joining in for the second set. Good times ahead!
That’s the word friends and see you out and about, Peter |
Hi Peter,
Looks like we’ll have such a perfect day for celebrating the ongoing Xmas eve day DM music fest. I’m so happy that I can enjoy the sunshine & great music w/you again this year. Too bad that Don has to work until 4:30 but it’s still a sweet gig, especially being’ connected to those WARM WATER BODIES @ the Y across the I5.
Just wanted to send you smiles and good cheer before heading to Ponto this morning.
You are a dear.Thanks for your great contributions to making our community such a wonderful and MUSICAL place.
Love to your family and C U tomorrow.
Your neighbor,
Genine “G. Rai” Orah
