finale 2

Oakland show, final show of tour was ok. good turn out but the Portland show went down better for us. for dinner up the road was a vegan soul food take away place, pretty much the vegan version of sloppy, fatty, ‘black man’ food – or fried chicken, Mac n cheese etc. I had a southern fried chicken burger, deep fried crumbed tofu patty, with BBQ tofu pieces, vegan cheese , tomato and lettuce with added powder spice! the best/worst burger I’ve ever eaten. soooo naughty but so tasty!!! said our goodbyes followed by an overnight drive to LA. stopped at a dudes house to freshen up (which took 7 dudes nearly 4 hours) we headed into Hollywood to catch up with our mate MJ (pinks personal assistant). ate more amazing vegan food at vege grill on sunset blvd (see below chicken burger and sweet potato fries) then headed up to the tourist spot to see the famous theatre bit, stars and names on the footpath and hand prints in cement etc. Marilyn monroes star was a hit along with ol’ frank! there was a red carpet for some new Disney movie and saw the actress Mandy Moore from a distance, along with Ryan Adams which drew more of a wow factor between us lot (alt rock country player). Tonight we are staying at MJ’s house in Venice beach so I’m assuming the day following will be focussed around that area and possibly Orange County too.
