    Riot in Pasadena, California w/ cool '66 guests! (Saturday)    Riot on 
Sunset Strip: Rock 'n' Roll's Last Stand in Hollywood will  make its return to 
the Greater Los Angeles area this Saturday afternoon,  from 4-6 p.m. at 
Vroman's Bookstore, 695 E. Colorado Boulevard, Pasadena,  California.

Special guests will be:

East Los Angles musician  and historian Mark Guerrero (Mark & the Escorts' 
"Get Your Baby"),  plus surprise cameo appearances by members of a few prominent 

East L.A.  bands of the '60s (possible Premiers, Jaguars and El Chicano guys 
pitching  in).

John "Chris" Christensen from Long Beach garage combo Opus 1  ("Backseat '38 
Dodge"), a record based on the Ed Keinholz assemblage art  piece that was 
banned from The Los Angeles County Museum of Art in 1966  amid much controversy. 


The 1960s proprietor of The Ice House  (then, a music venue), Bob Stane. 
House bands at The Ice House included  The Association ("Along Comes Mary") and 
The Deep Six ("Rising Sun"). Many  of the artists featured on The Smothers 
Brothers Comedy Hour, including  musical arranger Mason Williams ("Classical 
Gas") 
comedian Pat Paulsen,  and The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band all called The Ice House 
home back in the  day.

Vroman's has been in Pasadena since 1894... you can reach them  at (626) 
449-5320, or on their website:  www.vromansbookstore.com

It's real easy to get to, from the 210  Freeway, take the Lake Avenue exit 
South to Colorado Boulevard, then head  West for a few blocks. Vroman's is on 
the North side of the street. The  San Gabriel Mountains will be in the 
background as you face the store from  Colorado Boulevard.
