If you go to southern California and drive along the PCH-1, somewhere south of Newport Beach, and north of La Jolla you will find the Hacienda Beach Bar, and on most nights they’ll have live music. The house band is called Living Proof, and the other day, when I stopped by, I found their set list from the night before, scrawled in Magic Marker and taped up on the wall next to the stage.
Figures, they’d start with Van Halen. Show offs. But there’s something for everyone here, covers of classics, new songs destined to become classics, and something obscure enough to be written by the guys themselves.
Here’s what it might have sounded like if you’d been there. Enjoy.
