dear jane: COOL LINKS

stage one
this is by far the the most friendly, clean, well-organized, well-equipped and affordable practice studios around (and check this out-they maintain their equipment, all the lights/recepticles work, the sound system is top and you'll not be fearful to enter the restroom). we dont have any experience with their recording, but if it follows suit with the way they run the rest of the operation it should high quality without the gouge. Rob is the owner, Sammy and Erin are most wonderful. please check them out.
2nd floor studios
dave is the most patient man, talented musician and great engineer, here's to ya, cheers

Lots of local original bands down here... you know... below LA... but like before you get all the way to San Diego... helllloooooo... Oh yeah and annual music festivals!
