Re: The first LA Loop Fest!!!

[Steve Lawson <steve@steve-lawson.co.uk>]

that all sounds great - Ric Hordiski rocks! Over the Rhine are a fabulous
band. 

so if Andre's up for it, we have a line up, a venue, a time. We're on!

Also just in - I've got two nights at Jazz and Java in Redlands on Friday
and Saturday
