"It’s cold and rainy this morning and very hard to get up. Last night I was out with Katya and Alexis. An old Okie friend of A's from their High School days lives here too. A decent bass man as it turns out who sent along in invitation to hear his band. A real cool guy named Aidan. We set up with some drinks in the dark room at the back of old Parkside Lounge in New York's L.E.S. The band played well. An 8piece crew with one chap out they still hit it hard with strong roots in Funk, Soul, Blues and Rock.
The lead singer was a brown hair, light build, easy on the eyes beauty in a purple pleated dress with an open back halter-top. She had some moves that even made the women’s heads turn. Red lights on stage and the grooves they were laying down were fit for a good time.
