A couple of Halloween photos...

Too much going on...Disney on ice, Steve Poltz at Anthology, Adams Ave. Streetfair, La Mesa Oktoberfest

Went to see Steve Poltz tonight from the Rugburns and it was an unreal show. Played some classic Rugburns songs and many of his own. It was in Anthology in downtown..Tim Flannery formerly of the Padres played some sets with him. Poltz is quite hilarious and comes up with some ridiculous lyrics.

Took the kids to see Disney on Ice a few weeks ago and just generally been very busy.

By the way, who did my daughter's hair to look like Nell from Little House on the Prairie? I didn't authorize that...still cute though..Don't ask me how I know that character's name...

The kids...

The nanny took a couple of pictures of the kids this morning. One is Riley's fake sadface that we do to each other..This helps make her laugh when she's sad..These guys are the cutest...

One Track Mind, Adams Ave Street Fair, Playhouse Disney, and Fear, Agent Orange, & Dr. Know at HOB

Busy weekend...Friday had the day off so I saw Riley in school in PE and other activities, then took Evan to the park to skateboard while he was on the scooter. Friday night we went to see PLayhouse Disney Live at the Sports Arena, Saturday was car repair day then we went to Patagonia Surf Shop in Cardiff to see Chris Malloy's new movie "One Track Mind". Great movie. Sunday we went to Adam's Avenue Street Fair all day. Then I rested up to catch some good old hardcore punk rock with Dr. Know, Agent Orange, then Fear. Crazy weekend...

Evan with the stink eye...

Life as a Movie at La Paloma in Encinitas

This was a last minute thing but I took my wife and it was a great time. The movie had the whole crossover of surfing, snowboarding, and skateboarding have pros try each others sports. Really entertaining. Well worth it.

Motorhead at HOB

I've been anticipating this show for a while. Opened by Year Long Disaster and Valient Thorr. Year Long Disaster was really good sounding, Valient Thorr left a lot to be desired. It's almost as if they need a little stronger lead singer who isn't trying so hard to be "metal". Motorhead on the otherhand was excellent. With Lemmy's raspy voice it sounded like the Motorhead I know well. Even at his age he really fires it up. With the same lead guitarist and a relatively young looking drummer I was completely impressed. Complete with a drum solo, little guitar solo, encore with one solid blues song it was a really good show overall. They played hits such as "Ace of Spades" as well as songs from their new album "Motorizer". Definitely would see them again.

Devo concert at the Del Mar Race Track

Went with my wife and met up with Mark and his daughter and a friend. Overall a cool show. Devo has always been one of those odd bands but they played some of their catchier tunes like "Whip it" and a few others that really got everyone fired up. Really fun time and I really still dig those guys after all of these years.

Also threw in a few pictures from the phone of the kids.
