Ambassadors to Earth at Cary's Lounge


Our buddy Larry is in a new band--Ambassadors to Earth.  Maybe not a "new" band, but still fairly new to him.  They play traditional surf rock and they're great!  Really fun, sometimes verging on the dreamy cocktail edge of the genre. . . makes me a little nostalgic for my early twenties when swing and swing dancing were all the rage with the young punk rock kids.

We went to go see AtE play at Cary's Lounge up on Devon--a funny little neighborhood bar sandwiched between Indian restaurants and Naan factories--and I'm glad we did.  The music made the trip up totally worth it (and Larry's drum solos were amazing!), but so did the ping pong table at the back of the bar.  

That's right. . . not pool.  Ping Pong.  That has to be the worst sport/game for a bar, but the table was nonetheless this cool blue thing of beauty at the rear of the room.
