Lunacy at The Terrazza

Tonight we went to Lunacy... an outside terrace bar above The Terrazza overlooking the ocean. The Upstairs Band was playing. Talk about personality plus!

This band, which played classic rock and country and oldies... well you name it. There are five members. Guessing I would say Dad [regular guitar], Daughter [5 string bass guitar with a long neck] and Husband [lead guitar and singer] plus a sax player and a drummer... actually two drummers. One of them was the emergency room doctor. It seemed to put life in perspective.... even a doctor has wants. He was just drooling watching the drummer and got up and beat two songs with the band... and he's pretty good.

Anyway, let me tell you about the band. The personality was derived between the lead singer/guitarist and sax player. They played off of each other and the songs they played. The lead guy did the *crazy legs* bit. lol... quite fun to watch actually. His fingers went so fast at times, they blurred.

While his wife, I am guessing, steady played the bo, bomp, bomp, bomp of the bass guitar. Very steady and slow and stood with little emotion and nary even a smile.

The sax guy when not singing or playing would occasionally do the sun glasses sway of the Blues Brothers. lol...

The drummer, the regular drummer that is, had a little flip of his sticks between beats that was fun to watch. They were very relaxed and we enjoyed it a lot.

They had a great sense of humor and used it to interact with the audience. Once someone asked for someone mellow.... they delivered mellow.... mellow Jimi Hendrix's that is. And when someone asked for a beach tune, he said they were all beach tunes when played on the beach. We enjoyed it enough that we have decided that it will become a habit.

They have a $10 all you can eat on Wednesday of some seafood gumbo??? We looked at it and it was shrimp, craw dad's, potatoes, mini corn on the cobs in this concoction. I asked what it was but either failed to understand what the bartender said or have forgotten. lol... But considering even if I liked it, I would only have been able to eat one bowl, I did not necessarily feel that part is a bargain but the rest is.

We have gone there several times now... even weekly for a while and we have always enjoyed ourselves. Once we were even able to watch the porpoise play while we enjoyed the music and our drinks.

Is there a better way to live? And we aren't even on vacation!?! So, come hear the music play!
