Hey y'all, last Sat night saw Valerie - Amy Winehouse cover band down in Bakersfield.

It was an awesome, rockin show with her classics: "Rehab", "Back to Black", "Valerie", "F me pumps", "I wake up alone" and covers of "Killin me softly", "Stagger Lee", "To know him is to love him", "Heard it thru the Grapevine"

Had Sushi with a friend before the show and, of course, there's food porn. Tried Sparkling Sake for the 1st time - Yummy. Then over to the Nile Theater

Rotflol …… you sure know how to get out and QOL buddy …. We’ll have to make you a “ QOL “ king medal to accompany your sports medals. Rotflol. I dunno partner, some of your videos were ….ur …ah …. “ interesting “ lol. That Amy winehouse cover band short where that tall backup singer was always framed by the horns on the wall …. That shot of a men’s urnal ( omg ) and that guy in the tee shirt, the mirror and what looks like him touching himself Rotflol. Great country side shots, the Kern always looks great while it’s still green with some wildflowers. Looks like you are making the best of the time of the year / this particular countryside buddy. Looks like great fun my brother.

👍👍👍

❤️❤️❤️

Mahalo nui loa Bruddah Kal, I had tix and my 1st ask was too busy, but had a great time with Jill. She had my Jeep when I was in Spain. Yea Kern River Trail was great, no water in the river, but the lakes were filledSo many birds: Canadian Geese, ducks, coots and Cormorants. I think that Chinese used Cormorants to catch fish, they'd tie their necks with string so that they couldn't swallow any fish and then made them barf it up🤣

Crazy keg urinal😂

Hmmm, touching himself

Luv ya Big bro💙💙💙

Pancit and lumpia

[Kaliber in reply to dockam]

You are really getting out and about buddy. Wow ….. your social and activities calendar pretty busy. You are having way more fun than I am. I’d come down there and hang out with you but I don’t look right with my arms ripped off or head on sideways ( the hammer lol ) . I could be your wingman Rotflol. The more you think about it, the more it makes you want to laugh. Doesn’t look like you need a wingman at all , plus I couldn’t keep up in those marathons, the etrike doesn’t go that fast. Ah well ….. thanks for keeping us stoked to get up and off our couches.

Love ya buddy , keep ‘em coming.

❤️❤️❤️

Mahalo nui loa Bruddah Kal and while I see a chance, I'll take it:

youtu.be/HXWXpDiHbZo?si=78l...(Not working as expected?)

[dockam in reply to Kaliber]

Mahalo, supposed to be 67 on Sat, so Thrift stores and Beach Therapy babeee

QoL on

Mucho Amor💙💙💙

[Kaliber in reply to dockam]

I was having a “ wee “ bit of a new problem that I worried would land me in the E.R yesterday …. Extremely unpleasant urinary tract problem , horrible “ cathing “ routines flashing before my eyes Rotflol. Better this morning and ( hopefully) getting back to “ usual “ ( normal not the right word lol ) . I’ll never complain about peeing every 25 minutes again. Rotflol.

Anyway, yes buddy … it’d be great getting together again. Maybe this time we could get some take out from Pacific Seafood …. Wood smoked oysters , and wood smoked lobster tails etc. ( my treat of course ) and go over to Woodward Park ( you’ve seen part of that already ) and fly some serious drones ! I’ll put you in the FPV drone ( you wear a head piece ) that makes you feel like you are sitting in the drone driving it live. FPV , first person view , is a “ real “ trip ( pun ) , if you haven’t done it before , it should be on your bucket list . I’m licensed and my drones are registered UAVs as well. I’ll put you in a yellow drone pilot’s vest too. Rotflol.

We could just do the picnic part if the rest is too much, whatever works for you buddy.

❤️❤️❤️

[dockam in reply to Kaliber]

Oh dang Bruddah Kal, yikes about your "wee" issues 😪. I'm so grateful that my plumbing is okay, it's been two years post 28 IMRTs and so far no Southern Issues

Nom Nom and seafood picnic with drones, and using the FPV sounds awesome. Looking forward to a sunny afternoon with you two

Thought you would! You're a man of taste!

[dockam in reply to john510185]

A wide range of music taste, from Vivaldi to Foo Fighters 😁

Rock On

[john510185 in reply to dockam]

Love it! I've got similarly wide ranging tastes. My favourite genre at the moment is gothic metal. I think, after 60+ years of listening to music, Lacuna Coil might be my favourite band of all.

Oh wow, love it, she reminds me of Amy Leeyoutu.be/3YxaaGgTQYM?si=_yp...(Not working as expected?)

[john510185 in reply to dockam]

Yes! I found Lacuna Coil through liking Evanescence. LC have been around a year or two longer than Evanescence. Check out LC's website - they're in Mexico now, just about to hit North America!

Tell the truth do you have a cool planner who comes up with all the fun activities for you? Amazing!!! Very happy for you!

[dockam in reply to Orange95]

Mahalo nui loa Sis, I've been a concert/broadway musical fanboi for decades and so am on many mailing lists😂. No Planner needed, I get a ton of emails about upcoming events eg Matlida, Nutcracker, Valerie. Have Prince cover band next Sat at Gila Resort in AZ, but nothing after that booked. The PDubs meetup was a spur of the moment as the hubs/wife came out for dental appts and to see their fam, so beers together was a given for us.😜

Off to Ventura on Sat for a Memorial sign swap, Leticia meetup and Beach Therapy and will stay overnight, it's gon be like 67 down there - so mucho hikin planned, beers too of course

QoL on Sis 💙💙💙

I hope you gonna have lovely time! So many cool activities and events! You are great example how to enjoy life to the fullest.We were visiting kids for a week, they got new house for themselves. Celebrated 3 birthdays there. Went to few restaurants. Also went for amazing coffee at one of Italian restaurants. Great times too. The picture of cat was done by me, I was into latte art at one point.
