HEY! Over here on the left.

This is not a music blog.

It is a blog about me, David Ocker.

But most of me IS about music.

    On the Beach at Rose Parade 2008

    Mixed Meters brings you pictures of preparations to watch tomorrow's Rose Parade - along Colorado and Sierra Madre Boulevards in Pasadena. It seems to me that spending an entire night on a Pasadena street is like going to the beach. At the least the equipment is similar.

    There are rules for the parade watchers - which include NOT throwing tortillas at people in the parade.

    In the upper right corner of the next picture you can see snow in the mountains. Click any picture to make it grow.
