    Oh wow, after talking to my son about the gig, I guess it was really fabulous! The warm up band he was in Thee Midnighters got a standing ovation and a encore to come back and play more before Kool and the Gang came out!

    I guess they are a really well known local band in the LA area and Latino at that so they have lots of fans and the room was sold out days in advance! And to his surprise the Casino comped the rooms and all meals plus some fun chips!

    Anyway he had a blast and met some of Kool and the Gang's members and will be playing more with Thee Midnighters while their regular T-bone player recoups from his illness. I guess he made a couple of hundred bucks for 45 minutes of playing not too bad.

    Here's a link of Thee Midnighters on Amazon, you might recognize one of their hit recordings from the 60's "Land of a Thousand Dances". "Whittier Blvd" was a local cruse avenue when I was a teenager and I remember when that song played on the radio (AM) LOL. Anyway I've been listening to the songs and it's gives me chills to hear the horns and think my kiddo is playing THAT good! All those years of sending him to the garage to practice his trumpet paid off.
