    Thanks Emmett!

    Not quite the classic dimly lit establishment but a nice little restaurant right on Main St. in Fallbrook, CA which in some ways is emblematic of small town America.

    It will be the next one I add to the list with "Freebird"...You know what Eddie? I forgot...someone did request "Stairway To Heaven" on Saturday night. Nice to see that the Universe remains in order...

    DataNick, I'm not sure if this has already been covered yet, but what are you planning to wear at this gig? I'd be interested to know if you discussed this with the manager who booked you, or if you have your own choice.

    Django,

    I told the owner (as I stood there in polo shirt & jeans) that I would dress up a bit. What I wear is a white dress shirt, black pants, dress-type shoes (penny loafers), and a black bow-tie. I expect to add a tuxedo type black vest for this weekend's gigs. Hope that helps!

    The tux look is very good - but I often wear a dark blue pinstripe "Eye-talian" looking suit.
