7/29 HBISM parking lot. 1pm

We'll nosh, we'll drink a bissel Manischewitz, Kine Ahora! it'll be a wonderful time. You'll kvell when you tell your bubbelahs that you saw the Meshugga Beach Party on their first Southern Californian tour.

Do a hora for me!

These guys rock!
They played at my brother's bris.
It probably wasn't a good idea for me to request "wipe out" during the procedure though.

I can't wait! This should be lots of fun. I'll see you guys when you're in town.

Surfreilach! A definite "Do Not Miss" show for all you SoCal folks. Mazel tov to MBP for their first foray south.

-Weird Unc

Saw them at Forbidden Island 1 year anniversary -- they were great!

Crap. I can't believe I missed this.

Other Jewish shows/musicians that are not to be missed

Peter Himmelman

If you haven't seen Himmelman, I HIGHLY suggest this!! You will laugh your ass off!! This guy is like watching someone perform while on an acid trip. He gets the whole audience involved in the show and it's usually standing room only. He'll have you laughing so hard you'll fall out of your chair. He's coming to "The Mint" Aug 21st.
