A charity event raising awareness & money for musician’s health care.

It was a warm day with a slight breeze on this late afternoon at “The Taste in San Pedro,” when local rockabilly band, Seatbelt and the Pecking Order, took the stage. They played with exuberant abandon in front of the near packed crowd at Point Fermin Park August 3.

It was a nice break in the stream of golden oldies sets that were being zealously performed by the other groups during the day.

Over the weekend in a series of conversations, the obvious became apparent, even to the L.A. Times. They—The Times—observed that VH-1 was reinventing the classic rock format by having somewhat younger bands approach and perform the older “Classic Rock” material, breathing new life into this style of rock. Ideally, this exposure would bring younger bands into the picture doing new original rock music. You don’t have to look very far to find bands doing rock music. They didn’t stop just because the pundits of change stopped listening.
