After sleeping as long as we could (recovering from Cliffordpoollozza) we spent the rest of the day reading on the beach. I finished Atonement (really good!) and started a Carl Hiiason non-fiction book called Downhill Lie. Unlike Atonement, Downhill Lie is laugh out loud funny. I can't wait to get back to it.
Last night we went to Used-To-Be's a local bar/hangout to see Rich Meyer a one-man band who is very entertaining. He played in the middle of the bar (where the bartenders are) and had some sort of karaoke type computer that would play background music to whatever he wanted to play. He thrives on audience participation and if you don't participate he finds some amusing way to draw you in.
The internet connection is not very good today so I can't upload the photos that I want to. I will try again later.

Aha, the internet is now behaving and here are the photos from last night. This is Rich Meyer, in the middle of the bar area, playing harmonica and guitar and his fancy computer karaoke machine that seemed to take 3 1/2" disks. 
And here is what he does when you request a song - he makes you sing along on a microphone! Here are the budding stars Stephen and Katie singing a Steve Miller tune. 
Mike's request was of course Rosalita, a Bruce Springsteen song.
