In today's media there's a really nice piece on my favorite local venue - the Wiltern Theater. A few blocks from where I live, it's within easy walking distance from my apartment and surrounded by the thriving K-Town scene. Last Saturday night, I attended and participated in a rockin' and rollin' show there featuring a local group, The Dustbowl Revival, and headlined by an excellent foursome of young musicians/performers from back East, Lake Street Dive. The historic venue and and a live show once again made for a great night out.
Here's a link to the article from the Ticketmaster Blog and a couple of images from the locally archived Los Angeles Public Library photograph collections:
