Let’s stay warm dancing to our favorite bands! ~

I loved hearing First Aid Kit at the Fox Theatre in Oakland last week. Boy can those girls sing!

Another lady with an exquisite voice and rockin’ band is Lauren from Royal Jelly Jive. They hit the road last week with gigs in SoCal, and now they’re in Arizona. You can check them out tonight in Scottsdale at the Rogue Bar, tomorrow in Phoenix at Cactus Jacks, Thursday at Creek Side Inn in Santa Barbara and at Genghis Cohen on Saturday, Nov. 22nd in Los Angeles!

Our good friends Delhi 2 Dublin are back in the States and are at Zanzibar in Los Angeles tonight, and then at 755 After Dark (Aubergine) in Sebastopol on Saturday night as the headliner for Little Tribe Foundation’s fundraiser. Other acts on the line-up include Zack Darling, Horses Heaven, Hoytus & the Cup of Sunshine Band, Trinity Rayne and more….. Little Tribe is a non profit supporting children in need. Come and support this awesome cause. It’s a good idea to get your tickets now as this is bound to sell out. https://www.facebook.com/events/552719561524704/

Post OCF & Wanderlust!

After 10 days on the road in my Eurovan, I’m glad to be back home, doing laundry and catching up with email and friends. Oregon was beautiful and green. Tahoe was stormy and dramatic!

I felt blessed to stop for at least 2 swims a day in the many clean and clear rivers along the way.

In Tahoe, I agreed to bless and drop a crystal into my nearest waterway on September 21st, as part of a massive global water healing event. You can learn more about this event at: http://www.aqualuz.org
