![]() ![]() One of them was a big giant bottle of red wine that a number of you got hammered on at a party we threw probably just to watch you get hammered on that big bottle of wine. I parked in the structure on a Friday night. This parking garage is better if you are spending the day in Hollywood. This structure is perfect location wise because you are right next to the Kodak Theatre, and mainstream restaurants. You could wind up with some bowling passes and feel like an idiot, Jose Rizo handing you some bowling passes, but I won the wine twice in one month a few years ago. The parking structure is on Hollywood and Highland, right next to the Renaissance Hotel. Oh….you can also try and win the free wine they give away between sets. ![]() Better to just stay inside Hollywood and Highland. And Jayne Mansfield stuck her….no she didn’t. Plus you can go out onto the Boulevard and stare at the freaks and superheroes or go next door and put your hands into Judy Garland’s handprints and look like a complete jackass. Parking is 2 for up to 2 hours with validation, 1 per 15 minutes after initial 2 hours with validation with a max of 15 and a flat rate of 15 after 10 pm. It’ll be crawling with latin jazz hipsters and dancers will be grinding away all over the place. Some funk and soul here, maybe some pop there for me to complain about. Pete puts on a rocking latin jazz show with a great big sound. A good tip for finding free or reduced-price parking is figuring out if certain businesses near a parking garage will validate your parking. Pete and brother Coke were in Santana (and Azteca), his kid is Alejandro (of the Zeroes), and his kidette is Sheila E (as in Prince and several gorgeous covers of Modern Drummer), who sometimes plays with this bunch, wailing on the kit and looking beautiful. Music is 7-9 pm, it’s free, parking is $3 with validation (buy a candy bar for a buck) and either buy the wine there or even better sneak something in. Pete Escovedo has his Orchestra at Hollywood & Highland tonite. ![]()
