A Good Foot Christmas 2012 @ Alex's Bar 12/25/12 | Video by: Magic Milk
I watch quite a bit of Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations + The Layover and wonder at times where I'd take Anthony in Long Beach to get drunk and have a good time. He always seems to end up at random cities on "holidays" so I figure if he were in Long Beach on Christmas night I'd take him to Good Foot Christmas. For the non-locals and non-versed in LA Funk events, Good Foot was a 13(?) year running monthly here in Long Beach at Que Sera that was put on by Dennis Owens of Free Moral Agents. To my knowledge it was the longest running party in Long Beach. They started it back in the day before the internet and social media so it was quite a bit of work to get 100 to 200 plus people dancing to the best .45 vinyl selections of Funk music in a grimmey dive bar in Long Beach. The monthly may have closed shop, but Dennis brings back the event for select celebrations, such as Christmas. It's one of those Cheers moments when all the locals come out and just drink, dance, frolic, and fornicate. Eccentric met another local and she sent us this video they created. See you next Christmas on the dance floor...
