We don't seem to get them from Oahu but we are starting to get them from the Mainland. Hooray. I wll have another Rum And Coke on that.

Velvet Margarita, by Lino
Mexican restaurant Velvet Margarita has always featured top-notch DJs, but they've just started featuring bands on their patio during their "Cahuenga Block Party," a summer shindig co-promoted with St. Felix (where yours truly deejays). Those parties have been so successful, we've learned, that Velvet will have more live rock and roll besides the Lain Sound, on its patio this summer. 1612 N. Cahuenga Blvd, Hollywood, 90028. (323) 469-2000

Fortunately we are also starting to make connection with the neighbor islands. As long as we have music and dance information for our readers/dancers we will get more readers. This seem to be certain as we go into the second half of the year 2016. Sooner or later we will get some local Oahu venue to write up in our blogs, but it must be their decision. Patience, we are at their service.

For us, photos are a great way to dress up a blog site. They add color and liveliness to pages and are just fun. In our blog environment, people love to look at them because they are familiar with the background and the people in it. And perhaps even more if they appear in the photos themselves. In our dance environment they are surely a win-win situation and can liven up an entire blog. A word to the wise should be sufficient.

"Truth is so well disguised and lies are so well established that

unless  we love the truth we shall never recognize it."
