Ups n Downs and the LOWRIDER BAND


After a solemn Friday afternoon at a friends funeral services there are some bright spots. I saw several old friends there and did some re-connecting. NOW for the lighter side!
Had a Great weekend! Saturday, Pati and I went to my friend Nick's new home in Palm Springs for an afternoon patio party with several of my friends. Harold Brown of 'WAR' and now the main man behind the 'LOWRIDER BAND', AND... former roommate, was there too. Pati and his girl friend hit it off right away. So, Saturday afternoon we went to HB's and Pati went Groupie all over the place. We went into his studio, talked, listened to the latest tune he is working on and invited them over for dinner that night. They came, and we all had another terrific evening. Brown had Pati on the edge of her seat while he told his stories about music and his beginnings. Harold Brown is a Great musician, a historian and a man of strong convictions and deep integrity and I'm glad to call him a friend. We'll see him and his girl Cindy again in the near future and this time HB is doin' the cookin'. And I can tell you from past experience, Harold can cook!!!
Check out 'lowriderband.com or just Google LowRider Band and get the whole story. Its really interesting.
