BLEACHERS BREW EST. MAY 2006

Someone asked me how my blog and newspaper column came to be titled "Bleachers Brew". It's like this, it's an amalgam of sorts of two things: The bleachers area in the stadium/arena where I used to sit when I would watch baseball, football, and basketball games and Miles Davis' great jazz album Bitches Brew. That's how it got culled together. I originally planned on calling it "The View from the Big Chair" that is a nod to Tears For Fear's second album, Songs from the Big Chair. So there.

Who knows what a Laker is but give me 'em Laker Girls



Can we re-write the lyrics of the Beach Boys' "Surfer Girl" to suit these cheerleaders? The Laker girl pictured below is Jessica. One of my all-time Laker Girl faves Lisa Estrada is directing the new bunch (well she's been in that capacity for a while now).
