Walkers Cafe sponsoring San Pedro's the first music of summer 2011
Walkers Cafe together with Sound Kings USA is sponsoring San Pedro’s the first free music event of the summer 2011 season with a featured performance at 3pm by Shane O’Brien as well as many other bands on Saturday June 18th 2011
This is an event put on to celebrate the Summer solstice and is an open invitation for anyone to attend. It is free and Walker’s Cafe has been known to have the coldest beer, the best burgers and fries and friendliest patrons in town. The stage at Walkers Cafe in the Back Lot. This venue is a classic San Pedro establishment within a surreal Southern California setting. At the Cliffs of Point Fermin Park in San Pedro over looking the Pacific Ocean Coastline towards the West to Santa Catalina Island. Sound Kings USA is sponsoring this event along with Walker’s Cafe. Sound Kings is also supplying the P A system and a complete back line musical stage set which includes their Custom Boutique Tube Amplifiers. A marvelous opportunity to have Shane show off his brand new Sound Kings Tub Amp for a good 45 minute set. 3 pm is all Shane O’Brien time with emphasis on his performing selected Acoustic Solo Tracks from any one of the 24 Cd’s he has put out to date. For the second 30 minutes Shane will be joined with band members in completing the music delivery with his unique version as to his original musical language. A great chance to see both sides of O’Briens Edge…
This will be video taped as well and undoubtedly become part of something cherished in the near future. Stay tuned in tat regard…
B B Q’s will be smokin’, Brews will be flowin’ and Shane’s Blues will be Jammin’. There are several bands scheduled in this event before and after The O’Brien set.

To cap off the day itinerary with be a the outdoor stage performance of Shakespeare by the seain Point Fermin Park’s Stage located directly across the street from the Cafe. That performance begins at dusk and is also a free family event.
The Tragedy of King Lear
If you plan on attending the Shakespearean Stage Performance, please note that this is an outdoor event and the lawn seating is perfect for a big blanket and evening jacket. My personal suggestion as to your best comfort in mind. I did attend their performances the past two years and thoroughly enjoyed the whole event…
Shane is known for his original music by more than just a few in Canada and the USA, but how many know of his other life as a Union Ironworker out of Local 433 Los Angeles.
