July 2005
I went to Misquamicut Beach in Westerly, Rhode Island with Chrissy because she's a huge Davy Jones fan and he was performing at the Misquamicut Beach Music Festival. It turned out to be the most fun I've had in a long time! The whole event had a real small town feel. The show was organized by a guy named Caswell Cooke who also performed as part of the "Beach Bums", a local cover band. Their performance was a ton of fun too! Pete Best (the original drummer of the Beatles) also performed. If you ever want a place to go on vacation where everyone knows everyone and is friendly, I'd definitely recommend Misquamicut Beach.

Westerly, RI is a classic small New England town. Notice the whale on the traffic island. It's part of the New England Whale Trail
The local opening act, The Beach Bums, were a fun way to start the evening
