The Mynabirds and Elle Belle at The Satellite

Let's call it a night of magic.  The Mynabirds (Laura Burhenn -- photo to left) hit the stage and her first song had the crowd's attention.  She has that alto vocal nailed.  And it's a touch raspy, yeah.  The place was packed.  In fact, there was a minor disagreement going on beside me.  A couple attempted to get up front.  They got a tap on the shoulder regarding line of vision interference.  Laura Burhenn came to Los Angeles from Omaha, Nebraska.  Their loss. I wonder if she's ever run into Warren Buffett.  

Elle Belle opened up the night.  The lead singer was having a fun time making quips.

Quip #1 (turning to his keyboardist):  You forgot your tambourine?  Oh well, I guess this is a night of forgiveness.

Hmm, I wonder what sort of forgiveness was required earlier in the night.

Quip #2 (talking about a guest singer that had come on stage):  You can look her up on wikipedia to learn more about her . . . that's a lame joke.

Their music takes a frenzied turn as the lead singer shows his passion for their sound.
