Make no mistake: I love playing music, live—for an audience. It is the greatest thrill in the world to play music for people. Hotel Cafe is one of my favorite places to do such. It's sort of the singer/songwriter equivalent of what the Comedy Store is for comedians—or what the Magic Castle is for magicians.

I'm proud to be playing there, and I am very grateful to host Monday Mondays there once a month.

I will be there again, hosting and performing on Monday August 13th 2018 on the Hotel Cafe second stage. It is always an honor to share the spotlight with a number of talented singer/songwriters from all over the greater Los Angeles area.

I've been waiting on hold with Paypal for nearly two hours (please refer to previous blog), so I thought I would share some new photographs that my brilliant friend Adeline took from last month's Monday Monday. She is an amazing talent. She goes by Abbyshoot, professionally.

At any rate, I hope that this finds you all smiling and well and not on hold with Paypal.

With Love,

Mike
