Matt Applin's 60th Birthday Party
The Bayside Lounge - Fairfield, CA

Saturday June 24th, 2006


A very fuzzy shot of Patti in front of the Secrets Adult Superstore located conveniently just across from the very festive Bayside Lounge. Jessel led us through the back way to Fairfield...over Monticello Road and through

Wooden Valley and Mankas Corners. The drive reminded me of summers spent in the back country of Minnesota with my father. Another fuzzy shot...this time a few Jessel Jammers in the picture. Carolyn Gamble and Bill craig with his squeeze Laura.

And the birthday boy arrives...

Clarence Williams - Guitar & Vocals for the band 2nd Planet www.2ndplanet.net

Theodore Valentine - Bass Guitar & Vocals - I didn't catch the Keys or drummer's name. Heck, it was a party not a report!


The band had a nice groove going while Matt Socialized...but soon it was time to get down to the business at hand.

Matt was declared King...

and Knighted for good measure!

It's good to be KING!

And of course a song for the queen.

Jessel and Shauna can't sit still

Yes Jessel...I'm going to dance
Jessel + Patti
Lookin' good girls!

Matt III raps a little tribute to his dad...


And daughter Jasmin sings a beautiful Abbey Road medley..

...

and the SHOW stopper!

The King and Queen...

OK you two...get a room!

Daughter Mille gives the toast..

And dad gets the roast...

And now it's time to dance!

Oops...one more thing to get done...

cutting the cake...

Finally...lets get down to the show...

And the Jessel Jammer's backing it up! Well, what was left of the Jammers 'round Midnight!

And the final, fuzzy shot with Patti...Happy Birthday Matt Applin! You don't look a day over 43!
