George said "this video clip brought back some very old memories of my days at UCLA/USC in the 70's & 80's. Many of you on this email shared our college days together. Enjoy!!!

Tak's owner used to work at the coffee shop at the Holiday Bowl. How I wish I could get one more short rib meal at Walt's Cafe or the prime ribdinner at Rudy's....... "

On a related note, hey Gordon, tell William to email me about his family's restaurant in Crenshaw - get with it!

Hey Dane,

I've enjoyed hearing Loco Mojo over the years at Paul's Kitchen. Sorry that place is no longer happening but that you guys are still quite active. I'm trying to keep track of where you guys play so that I can enjoy those old sounds. Keep your groove goin on and I'll be there right with ya!
