The Fab 5 !
So here's my second amateur attempt at capturing the sights
and sounds of the Kemah Boardwalk in Texas. The first one
is one that I am living with. This time around, I did get three
good visual clips but somehow the audio came out all jerky
and I decided not to upload them. Instead I used some of the
photo captures and added the Fab 5 demo music which is
exactly what it sounded like at the concert anyway.
The Fab 5 are a cover/tribute band who really are Fab when
it comes to recreating the sound of The Beatles. They are
an energetic, authentic addition to the Texas Gulf Coast
Music scene: legends in their own right, who were the opening
band for classic soft-rockers 'America' at their last Texas gig.
If you're planning a trip to Houston, Texas and visiting the
NASA/Clear Lake area, the Kemah Boardwalk is a definite
'must see' spot. There are Thrill Rides,
free concerts during Summer, a 4-D Theater, great restaurants
like Landry's, Shopping, and lots of amusement for kids and
grown-ups alike. See a related Flickr photo set here
All from the scenic Kemah Waterfront, which is recovering
well from the devastation which it incurred from Hurricanes Ike,
Rita, Katrina and others. They certainly have Galveston-born
Tillman Fertitta, who owns the Landry's chain of Restaurants,
and the Golden Nugget Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, to
thank for his stoic zeal and support to keep the place afloat
(bad pun).
