Dave Navarro
A little music talk for a Saturday afternoon. I've added a link to my blogroll to the right for 6767.com This is Dave Navarro's blog with guests from the current music project he is working on with Stephen Perkins (they don't have a band name as of this post). If you're a fan of anything Dave has done like Jane's Addiction or his work with many other artist, you might want to check it out. He's very good at answering questions and keeping the fans updated on the project's progress. He is also on a radio show here in Los Angeles (everyone else can hear the station from the web site) on Saturdays from 6pm to 8pm. The station is Indie 103.1 and the show is called "Camp Freddy" which is a cover band he has with Matt Sorum, Donovan Leitch, Billy Morrison, and Chris Chaney That's all for now folks.
Metal Riffs for Jesus!
Why is THIS the greatest record ever? Because that's my brother on the bottom left. This was a band called Malachia that he was in back in the hair metal 80s that rocked for the big guy. Although they were all great musicians, the outfits are just so ridiculous that it makes me chuckle every time I see it. I was doing a little research in my record collection for the upcoming "25 favorite song of all time" list and I found this. I just had to share. I guess we'll find out if my brother reads my blog now, won't we. Sorry for the pop-up window, but I couldn't bring myself to display this on the front page of my blog.

Two Pictures in a Row?
I'm shooting a bunch for JBL this week. I thought this was a cool shot so here ya go. I know it's not flowers or my Lily, but I think I'm losing male readers with all the girly stuff around here. :-)
The Truth About the Marine Salad.
After a short trip to the beach on Father's Day we decided to eat an early dinner somewhere in Malibu. After some major indecision on my part we ended up at a small restaurant called Marmalade just down Pacific Coast Highway from Pepperdine University. We kinda know the menu at this restaurant because we've eaten at one of the other locations. Well, because it was Father's Day, I decided to splurge and get the Lobster Raviolis at about $18.00. That was easy. So the Waitress tells us the specials and describes a killer salad that Marisa and her sister Meghan both decide on. It's called the Marine Salad and I wasn't listening to the description, but apparently, it involved crab, prawns and lobster. When the salads arrived at the table, they were so huge that they got a jaw dropping stare from Dan Cortese and his wife who happened to be sitting at the table next to us. Anyway, we immediately started trying to guess just how much these salads were going to cost, seeing that the girls never thought to ask. Well, just in case you happen to eat at Marmalade and decide on the Marine Salad, you might want to split it with someone. Firstly because they are definitely big enough and secondly because they will set you back forty dollars each. That's right folks, 40 bucks. I guess I wasn't the one splurging after all. The rest of the night I had to hear Marisa mumble "forty bucks for a salad." To be fair, they did have two lobster tails on top. When was the last time you ate dinner in shorts and a t-shirt and got a bill for $120.00 for three and a half people? No alcohol included!
