Happy 50th Birthday To Mike Watt

Paddling this morning 12-20-07.

Happy 50th to our weekly photo contributor Mike Watt! This is a self-portrait taken this morning, kayaking around Angel's Gate in the rain at dawn. He'll also be marking the occasion tonight by rocking DiPiazza's in Long Beach. Watt will be joining Nels Cline and Steve Perkins in Banyan, Perkins' experimental, mostly instrumental project. Opening bands are Alfajerk and Horrors of Toledo. Banyan goes on at 11pm, so you can still catch them if you head on down to the LBC.

I'm happy to have my birthday the day next to Watt. And not only him, Thursday was the birthday of our bicycle contributor, Stephen Box.
