My Favorites Best Location Bluebird Park, Laguna Beach, 7 concerts. Canyon

makes for one of the best locations. Sophisticated concert goers bring low tables, gourmet meals and fine wine. If you

haven't been there put it on your MUST TRY list.

Best 50's/60's Tommy Tassi & The Authentics, 1 concert. If you like the Doo-Wop sound of Dion and the Belmonts

check these guys out.

Best Jimmy Buffet tribute Mark Wood & Parrot Head Band

Best Overall Venue Heritage Park, Dana Point. With a bowl configuration, view of the harbor and ocean plus cool ocean breezes this place rocks. Dana Point also uses Lantern Bay Park and

the difficult to get to, Sea Terrace Park.

Best Ocean Concerts San Clemente - wade in the water & dance in the sand.

Most Fun Band The Answer- terrific oldies rock plus a T-shirt cannon.

Best known OC Band Matt Mauser & The TJ Dogs. 7/7 Dana Pt

Best Jimmy Hendricks

Lead Guitar Keston & the Rhythm Killers. GREAT guitar player &

plays with his teeth! 7/21 Dana Pt.
