CD RELEASE PARTY
Alameda, California
July 22, 2000

The CD release party for Michael Sea and Island Fever's 2nd CD, Bill is Back in Baytown, was a big success. With standing room only, the band entertained the crowd for over 3 hours in the sun soaked deck of the Aroma Restaurant/Bar. (All photos by Becky Novak. Thanks Becky.)

 
 



Michael Sea, assessing the situation. He's been ready to go since 8:am!


Drummer Ken setting up. Ken Hale came all the way from Los Angeles to hang out with his boyz and play music
 


Jim Novak is always ready
to go.

percussion

Though Bud Minton (on bass) was on time, he stalled as long as he could for his friend Scott.
 



That's the
band boat on the right. The good ole Sea Few.


This is a rare photo. Michael claims his guitar came tuned. Now the rest of the band has to tune up! Rodney (soundman) says "You too Bud!"
 




Our pals and
fans.
 

The
band strikes
it up...



"Yeah baby."
 



"So, where
you from?" Michael asks
the crowd.

"Hello
Alameda!"
 

Working
the
crowd.

Go Ken,
go Ken...
 

Play magic fingers.

Father
and son.
 



Four notes,
but they're
good ones.


The crowd is having a swell time!
