I missed Scratch Perry on the Santa Monica Pier last night because I was stuck in fucking class, and I had been waiting for that show ALL summer, the Summer Twilight Concert series always have their grand finale with a brilliant roots reggae show.. last year it was Jimmy Cliff and U-Roy, in the years past it was Toots and Maytals, Ziggy Marley, Ras Michael.. its just so damned irie to be out on the Pier at night dancing to roots reggae, a beautiful and prototypical LA moment..
Alas, I couldn't be there. So to make up for it I am going to skank my ass off at Groundation this saturday night at the Observatory..
Hirsute, you going to Thurston @ the Observatory Oct 11??
