IOU vs. L.A.


IOU

Recommended Posts

An oboe! I have to check them out.

 

I don't think I've even heard of that wall in LA. Crazy cool. Have you been to those projects in east LA with all the murals? I'll try to post pics in a minute...not sure how many I've actually uploaded to Flickr.

 

Both those bands are great. I've seen Vagabond twice(the other time @The Edison, perfect venue for them) and the banter in between the songs is great.

 

I haven't checked East L.A. out like I should. Used to go to house parties there in the 90s but that's about it.

Yeah I haven't either. I'm not sure how safe it is for me to wander around over there on my own with a camera. I've done some wandering around South Central but most of those times I wasn't alone.

I love those wall of window shots (the brick building) cuz I like to try to see if anyone is visible in any of them. Once I was walking by a building like that downtown and someone was dropping glass bottles out a window, smashed on the sidewalk right where I was about to be. Welcome to downtown.

Little Tokyo.

 

This area is funny, it's right by the river and looks like a good place to dump a dead body:

But if you walk around, all you'll see is about 5 different film shoots going on.

It's a nice area. Right next door to skid row.

That's just some of what was there. They also had a stage for DJs and bands. Some 500 people showed up, but I had work so you ain't getting none of the good stuff.
