INSTAGON/LOB 10-25-1998 LuLu's Beehive, North Hollywood, CA review by Mike Cluff, poet,Riverside,CA "The best read I was at over the last five weeks occurred at Lulu's Beehive on October 25 when Lob and William McClain brought a touch of LA and Orange County to this Studio City coffeehouse. Celebrating the read's one year anniversary, Drew Derr's hosting was warm and welcoming and his organ-playing ain't too shabby either. Lob read and played an evocative set that was involving and intriguing, while McClain performed par excellent, his poetry ranging from his trademark humorous to heart-touching commentary. Too bad the audience was smallish; they missed a great evening as provided by these three aforementioned gentlemen." -- Mike Cluff
