The music, people and stupid moments that make up the nightlife

A few reasons why I love the Hollywood Bowl

The Hollywood Bowl, (in)conveniently located right off the 101 freeway always hits me with an elegant indie/eclectic curve ball. The following are concert dates I urge everyone to attend:

July 6 - Belle & Sebastian - The group will be performing with a full orchestra; opening duties by The Shins; hosted by KCRW's Nic Harcourt.

July 23 - The Flaming Lips - Opening duties by progressive trip-hop duo Thievery Corporation and the infamous Brazilians known as Os Mutantes; hosted by KCRW's Nic Harcourt.

September 21 - VIdeo Games Live! 2006 - The Bowl Orchestra performs video game music from popular contemporary games plus old classics. And, of course, laser lights!!!

September 24 - Massive Attack - Coachella was just the beginning! Opening duties by TV On The Radio.

Carlos, Estelle and I saw Royksopp and Basement Jaxx at the Bowl last year. It was in my top three of shows for 2005. I think the best bet for going to the Bowl is to park either in the Studio City lot or the Hollywood & Highland lot and take the van over to the Bowl.
 
You can walk from Hollywood and Highland to the Bowl, which I only recommend after the show. I'm seeing B&S/Shins with a friend. It's gonna be bad assss!
 
Lucky for me, I'm within walking distance to the Bowl. Who wants to park by my apartment?!

I was also at the Royksopp/Basement Jaxx show. INCREDIBLE!
 
There's parking by your apartment now, Ivan?
 
Well...there is on Highland.
