Music: Nash Hernandez Orchestra
So... for a variety of complicated reasons I was unable to make it over to Club DeVille to see AMODA's showcase event last night. Maybe it was the fact that McLovin was sighted at Star Bar. I don't know. But, in any event, a couple of us ended up at Donn's Depot around 12:30am.
Man, it had slipped my mind that Saturday night is when the Nash Hernandez Orchestra plays at Donn's. The video clip is of "Sitting on a Dock on the Bay", by Otis Redding. That sort of old school big band music is all right, but the really fun stuff comes out when they play Latin big band numbers. I love it. It's like being in 50's Havana, except without casinos and cool finned Chevy convertibles. The delicious Donn's cocktails and free popcorn are nice, though.
The Nash Hernandez Orchesta is at Donn's from time to time. Check out the Donn's Depot music calendar to find out when they'll be back. It's worth the trip to see them. And, like the girl in the video clip, drop some cash in the jar. There are a lot of dudes who share from that tip pool.
