Back at LA

Finally, back at LA. Its been hell of a 2 wks, travelling from New York, Niagara, Washington D.C. then Chicago b4 flying back to LA. Can't believe I travelled all the way to the East Coast. I think its been quite of an experience, especially being a n00b in the U.S., and the next time I ever head back to the U.S., it will be easier to plan a trip and to decide how best to enjoy the sights and especially sounds of these diverse cities!

But first things first, an update on Chicago. And what better way then with some pics right? LOL. Guess it'd be easier to load some pics of D.C. here also.

Andy's Live Jazz Club

Jazz Record Mart in Chicago, the biggest baddest jazz record store ever!!

I like the feel of Chicago, like I said, its very vintage and O Skool. The freedom of expression that is jazz just lingers all about this place, in its image, in its architecture. Somehow, from what I've heard, San Francisco will be the other city that will probably speak to me the same way Chicago did. In the mean time, its all about living LA. Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and the O.C.
