I did a little domestic traveling in October - first stop, New Orleans, where my cousin (for whom I helped find a 997 Cabrio) invited me to join him for the Porsche Parade through downtown and the Garden District:

My Dad grew up in Mobile, and I have family there, but I haven't been to Mobile in a few years. I've been to the battleship several times. I remember when the I-10 bridge was built. We used to have to get off the interstate at Spanish Fort and get on Hwy 90 and go across the causeway and through the old Bankhead tunnel. Man, that was many moons ago.

We live in a suburb of LA - just far enough to get plenty of peace and quiet, but close enough for a day trip - or to spend the night.
The most recent was to see Van Morrison - and he did NOT disappoint! First stop was the Intercontinental Hotel, an offshoot of Pan Am from back in the day, and LA’s location is part of the Wilshire Grand complex, tallest building west of the Mississippi. And a *****in’ rooftop bar to boot! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1732123737.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1732123737.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1732123737.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1732123737.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1732123737.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1732123737.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1732123737.jpg |
The venue - The Orpheum - in DTLA is a 1925 “Gilded Age” vaudeville theater, now restored and an excellent place to catch a band!

So much great music - much of it new - and all of it performed by absolutely world-class musicians.

Last stop was Mass at St Vincent de Paul, also in DTLA and another 1925 gem. Originally built with a donation from Doheny, i’d love to know how much it would cost - and if you could - build it today.

Went to the Sphere in Vegas a few months back to see Dead & Co. It was an outstanding experience to say the least. And so hyper real that the old Deadheads can leave the LSD at home - you’ll be trippin just watching the show…. ;)
