Cocktail Monkeys – Pleasanton Free Concert in the Park

One of the best bands that plays at the summer free concert series in Pleasanton is Cocktail Monkeys. We saw them last year and had a great time. I hadn’t planned on going last night because we had been invited to the Joan Laursen’s kick-off party for her run for Pleasanton School Board. The party was a lot of fun, and I met some great people, including the front-man for the Cool Tones, band that plays the at the park concerts as well.

After the party we had time, and even though I hadn’t reserved our spot in the early morning, we decided to go downtown and check out the concert. Lucky for us it wasn’t as packed as I had anticipated and we got a good spot. The Cocktail Monkeys were better than I remembered from last year and, as always, I took some pictures to share. This time I used a WordPress plugin called PhotoQ to post them to the blog. It automates the process of uploading, tagging and adding descriptions to the photos. It also automatically creates a post for each picture from the queue, which you can publish when you are ready.
