Sound of Music at the Bowl

The Hollywood Bowl season is here. My first event was the Sound of Music sing-a-long. I used to watch this movie every Christmas, now I watch it every summer. I love everything about this movie! It was 50 years ago the movie came out this year, and the bowl was sold out, amazing! 
Everyone lit up their phones as the Captain sang Edelweiss. 

Rae Sremmurd at the Roxy

Went to see Rae Sremmurd at the Roxy, I was super excited but they were really terrible so we left about halfway in.

Brass Tax at Satellite

I got an e-mail alert a while ago saying that the Brass Tax are playing at the Satellite, it took me a moment to figure out why that band sounded familiar to me – I went to school with the bassist!

Wiz Khalifa at the House of Blues

I didn’t decide if I wanted to go until the very last minute, but I am glad I did. It was a great show and I had a ton of fun, despite all the smoke from the funny smelling cigarettes. 

Said the Whale at the Bootleg Theater

Said the Whale was playing the Bootleg. I’m not super familiar with their music but it’s been a while since I’ve been to the Bootleg so I wanted to go anyway. 

Irontom was warming up and I thought they were super weird at first but they got better after a few songs.

Said the Whale was ok, a little to mellow for my taste.

Sound of Music Sing-a-log at the Bowl

The Sound of Music sing a log at Hollywood Bowl was such a blast last year so we had to come back this year!
Got the same goody bag as last year…

Everyone got their phones out when the Captain was singing Edelweiss. What an awesome movie!

The Simpsons Take the Bowl

The Simpsons were celebrating 25 years with a show at the Hollywood Bowl.

We had Duff Beer!

Fireworks, best way to blow up money!

Elvis Costello at Hollywood Bowl

I finally got to see Elvis Costello so now I can check that off the list!
He played the Hollywood Bowl and it was super good! I expected it to be good, but not this amazing. He made some really good versions of Accidents Will Happen, Veronica and Watching the Detectives among a bunch of others. 

Ok Go! at Santa Monica Pier

Headed down to Santa Monica pier to see Ok Go! play the Twilight Series.
I failed to be healthy and had a beer.

Both the Allah-las and Ok Go! were brilliant!

Hitchcock at Hollywood Bowl

Started off the day as you should start off any day really, by jumping in the ocean!

After beach time we headed up to Hollywood to see the Hitchcock tribute at the bowl.

Sneaked in to the box seats to have our photo taken.
