The Monterey Music Summit is the largest popular music and arts festival on the central coast of California. The MMS first took place on the Monterey County Fairgrounds on October 20-21, 2007. Just seven short months later, the event encores at the beautiful Laguna Seca Recreation Park on May 30-June 1, 2008. Why so soon? You demanded it! The move to Laguna Seca this spring was prompted by your desire for camping coupled with venue availability options. So here we are . . . hope you can join us.

This was a totally disappointing experience. Doors were at 9 and Snoop was supposed to come on at 10. We left at 12:30...and still no Snoop. Couldn't find a manager or anyone to ask for a refund. Sure I've been to concerts that started late before...but not this late. Completely unprofessional all around.

Or maybe Snoop Dawg is even beyond that now. I remember when his career started burgeoning, journalists would interview him and it'd be incredibly difficult to decipher anything he said other than, "You know what I'm sayin?!" No, Snoop! What the heck are you saying?! Nowadays, besides just rapping -- which has transitioned into more R&B player style (by the way, I love his new song: "Sexual Seduction" or the uncensored version "Sexual Eruption" -- it's hilarious how these guys can get away with singing this stuff!), Snoop is now a family man coaching his son's sports teams and spending time with the family on a hit reality show. How times change...

I mean really, I think they can be a little less modest. They're really stupid.

KCRW turned me onto this LA-based trippy band with layered acid sounds and vocals that are positively celestial. Sonically somewhat like an electric and dreamscapey Brian Eno though more complex with multiple instruments and more hooks and grooves, but pulsing live and meditative at the same time. Caught them live at the Independent in SF last week. Added bonus: Lead vocalist is enchanting, sultry and gorgeous. True to their LA roots, they put out a big presence, a heart-stopping show without being premeditated or cliched. They have a sound all their own and deserve a place at the pop-trance musical altar
