We started the evening with a trip to Growlers for a bite to eat and a great beer. From there we headed over to Lucas School House to catch a Javier show with a full band, including Moises!
First to Blumenhof to see Steve Leslie, then to Brandt's to see Javier Mendoza.
More pictures are available at our Flickr site. Want to know what Steve's songs are like? Check out his MySpace. Javier also has a MySpace.
I think I am starting to get the hang of the new lens!

Cicero's on 9-28-2006
Jane Jane is off to San Diego CA. to join a dance company!!! But we did get to see her last performance with SunMotel at Cicero's. Now the lacubrious crew has a good excuse to head out west.
Good Luck Jane!
More pictures of the show are available on our Flickr Site.
What a great weekend!!!
It all started on Thursday night when after receiving an email from Steve Leslie LacubriousOne and I decided to go to Helen Fitzgerald's with Uncle Ed. It was a great evening! The band sounded great! It was a little rough getting up for work Friday morning but well worth it.
Friday evening we headed down to the the Zoo with the Lacubrious Jonzes and our good friend Kurtis to see Javi's first show after getting back from Spain. We were running a bit late and only got to see the last half of the show, but did get to talk to Javi, Carl, and Julie for a bit before we went looking for dinner.
Saturday morning I went down to the with my friend Bill. We hit Dave & Busters for a while and then went to the Mills to eat lunch at Tony Roma's. GREAT BBQ!!. On the way home something strange happened, we were talking about winerys as we drove down hwy 94, when Bill decided to turn into Balducci to check out the view. When we rounded the corner at the top of the hill THERE WAS LACUBRIOUSONE!!!! Turns out my trip with Bill was a carefully crafted plot to get me to Balcucci for a surprise party! The party was GREAT! I will put up more pictures ASAP.
A big thanks to everyone for coming and an even bigger thanks to my wonderful wife LacubriousOne for making this a birthday I will never forget.
Thursday night we went the see Steve play his first booking at Helen Fitzgeralds. Thanks again Ed for giving us a ride. This was the first evening of my LOOOONG birthday weekend. More on that to follow.

Another reason to love Cordoba...nearly every time they excavate to add on to a building they uncover some archeological find! This was next to a hotel in the City Centre...they began excavation and uncovered several roman columns so they began piecing them back together and placing them upright next to the building. The site was still actively being excavated for more column pieces.
There are currently over 900 arches within the Mesquita....each subsequent addition to the building added more. Most have been restored but there were a few that have yet to be and they appeared somewhat crumbly and faded, but still structurally sound...not too bad considering the age of the building.
This is within one of the many chapel rooms within the Mesquita. Amazing...nearly every surface in this room was covered with paintings. No flash was allowed so I had to brace the camera against one columned wall in order to allow the shutter to remain open long enough for a clear exposure.
