Dean, Yeah, I like it here. I work most days on location in Los Angeles proper so it's kind of nice to escape to the suburbs on the weekends and days I'm not on location.
  11:07pm
Dean:

@rw, If I were psychic, I'd have won a lottery or two, and WFMU would, a fortiori, not be concerned with the viability of its revenue stream.

But I do know parts of Fullerton, and I've enjoyed being there.

My mom's in La Habra. Now and then we head to Olde Ship.

Fender guitars were made in Fullerton but moved to Corona.
  11:11pm

Ha! I've never been to the Olde Ship but my friend Dave is a fan. And the other day I got pulled over by the CSUF cops for riding my bike too wildly through campus!
  11:11pm
Dean:

Yeah, but you know there was a Wenzel's Music Town not too far away in Downey.
Avatar 11:12pm
Kris Holmes:

Downey has the single arch McDonalds too!!
  11:13pm
rw:

And Kris, I rode that same bicycle to Corona last weekend! AND my mom lived in Downey when she moved out here from Chicagoland!
  11:13pm
Dean:

Olde Ship has maintained a modicum of integrity in terms of British authenticity. There is (or was) also a British grocer a few blocks south.

The Downey McDonalds is something to behold.

Myself and another friend who is also a guitarist did a special VIP Fender guitar factory tour which was great.

doctorjazz:

This I Can't Let Go is great (as is the cover). You played it not long ago, no? (not that that's a bad thing-FMU DJ's have this thing about never wanting to play anything that has ever been played before, which eliminates lots of good music once someone has gotten to it).
  11:26pm
rw:

Larry, I got here late and then got caught up in this conversation about north Orange County and I'm missing this incredible sounding show! I'm going to have to catch it in archive. And of course pledge again!

Dean, next time you're out here let me know and I'll buy you a beer at the Olde Ship!
  11:28pm
Dean:

Ah, yes, I know the block. My mom's closer to the Beach/Imperial intersection. I'm there quite a few times every year. (Hence my visits to James to buy this or that for repairs.)
