::Sunday 05.28.06 - BBQ at Baxterado Estates - 2pm 'til 2am (or whenever the cops come)
Brad and Heather's cool neighbors, Michael & Jessica, are throwing a Memorial Day party in the parking lot shared by all the houses on their lot. Cool set up with plenty of room for plenty of people. They were kind enough to ask the Patch to provide some tunes for a couple hours and we were happy to accept. We're not makin' any promises, but Dean Cameron showed and played bass at the last one of these. Here's the 411:

WHAT: Echo Park party/hang/gig
WHERE: 2020 Baxter St., Echo Park 90039 (between N. Alvarado and Lakeshore)
WHEN: This Sunday May 28th 2pm - 2am
WHAT: WEED PATCH @ 6pm and 8pm, all sorts of other stuff before, after, and during.
ALSO: Food and drink--you're encouraged to contribute.
ALSO ALSO: It's free, it's kid friendly, it's in the hills overlooking downtown LA.
BONUS: You get to drive up and over one of the steepest streets in all of LA.

Come one, come all.
