Vanaprasta
So, yes… I won another 98.7 contest. The amusing part is I won two. And on the second one, not only did I win, but so did Sex God and my best friend, Eithne. See… I earn & enter points for them and we were all entered for the Vanaprasta CD Release Penthouse Party. And we all won! haha.
So we each took a guest! Sex God invited a co-worker & his girlfriend and his boss. Sex God scampered out of work early to meet me at my house. Then we picked up Eithne and sped off to the Penthouse. I’d been there so many times I knew exactly how to get there. But traffic can be complicated during rush hour so I was speeding about.
Eithne opted to watch in comfort
“Oh God… we’re gonna die,” came out of Sex God’s mouth several times. heeheehee. We got there on time and then had to wait and wait for our guests to arrive. Thank Heaven there is valet parking cuz there is no parking around Hollywood! I ushered everyone inside and asked if they wanted cool stairs or haunted elevator. They chose the elevator, which is small but not only did we cram the six of us inside, 3 more people followed us on!
They weren’t serving any moonshine at the Penthouse but they did have free soda, beer & pizza. The usual. After about an hour of talking, drinking & eating, the band came out & played 4 songs. I was pleasantly pleased with their sound, considering I’d really never heard them before.
My iPhone has a camera!
The band’s singer was wonderfully energetic and bore an amazing resemblance to a man I dated (also in a band, but a drummer) 20 years ago! I wondered briefly if he had a son. hehe. He kept making eye contact and grinning… so I hung on Sex God a little more.
Then we took pictures & scampered away, well pleased with the evening. The best part of these unknown events is getting a nice night out with entertainment and all for free. I haven’t seen a band YET that I’ve been disappointed in.
Guess I’ll just have to keep winning 🙂

Oh , and the other contest I won was for an In-Studio performance of a band called Milagres. Never heard of them either but THIS contest was for all ages. So since Sex God also won we took my oldest & youngest with us to this event.
They were on their best behavior but a little bored. The band had an unusual techno sound to it. Now whenever a new song comes on the radio they both ask me if THIS was the band they saw with me. lol.. no, boys.. but someday I will
Sex God & I withe the band
take you with me on a Coachella Music Festival Weekend. When you’re in your late teens and can appreciate it! lol
