Where is Pirate's Cove, Ocean View?
P.S. The map on the website is in Las Vegas! Ahhh, the 60's.

Saw NRPS in a "bar" at Santa Cruz Ca. I think around 1974. Less than a 100 people and than they closed the doors. Just happened to meet somebody who knew what was happening and I got to see a great show !
Only been in Ca. for a few days . Fresh off the boat from the Caribbean.

Sorry to break the news but David Nelson passed away last week.
I'd rather be a wise ass than a dumb ass!!!
Different David Nelson. That was Rick Nelson's brother. No relation.

We saw the show last year in Holualoa. What a blast from the past! Reminded me of the old be-ins in Palo Alto. But the hippies looked much older. Gonna try the Pirate's Cove gig this year. I prefer daytime outdoor gigs.

I think the Pirate's Cove is in HOVE-Ocean View...not exactly sure where...a private venue.
