Today we're going to Orange County where the old school punkers live. We head down the 5 Freeway into Anaheim, home of Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, and Linda's Doll Hut. Yes, Linda's Doll Hut, a small rock club hidden in a big world off the 5 exit. Next we stop at Band West rehearsal studios where they have bands rehearsing round the clock.

We then head for the beach, Huntington Beach , where the sand stretches for miles either way, and visit the Main St surf city area where Electric Chair has been the local headquarters since 1983. Just a block away is Perq's a small blues club for beach crowd.

We then head back up Beach Blvd to the 405 where the Rhino Room keeps the crowds coming. Right next door is Gecko's , where they have KNAC night, but mostly dance music.

The next exit off the 405, Brookhurst, brings us to Music City , the rock club of Fountain Valley. Nearby is Record Pix , a cool underground record store, and then it's back on the 405 south to Irvine.

Welcome to Irvine, the most modern city in Los Angeles. Here we visit Sharks , a club on Sand Canyon Rd, and then head down to joining of the 5 and the 405 where we stop for a drink at Rockfields , the southern tippers rock club.

Now we head to Club Mesa and the Galaxy Theater in Costa Mesa where the rock never stops, and then to Malone's in Santa Ana. Our next stop is in Corona, and the Showcase Theater and finally down to San Juan Capistrano to the Coach House where they have great national acts.

Well, thats Orange County, hope you had fun, take your time heading back, maybe even stop at Laguna Beach for some fun in the sun, before we head over to Glendale, Pasadena, and the San Gabriel Valley . . .
