Plaid Summer Tour: Plaid sees dead people.

Plaid sees dead people.

After a quick visit to Westwood Village Memorial Park, we took photos with Merv Griffin, Marilyn Monroe, Dean Martin, Jack Lemmon, and Burt Lancaster.

We met the cemetery's groundskeeper, who had the most amazing stories (and who's working on a book.) Did you know that the guy who is buried on top of Marilyn Monroe (!) was exhumed to be turned around and facing her?

We decided that Westwood would be the perfect location for the 11:40 show, and set up for broadcast. 3...2...1...and, we're live! Fifteen seconds into broadcast, a fiery beast came squelching across the cemetery "stop taping! You have no business here!" It wasn't a ghost. Just a really mean lady who trounced across all the graves to stop the 11:40 show. We continued the broadcast, but moved to the inside of the van. Until the mean lady came by and insisted that the Plaid van was not welcome anywhere near the cemetery. (Real friendly cemetery lady.)

We finished the 11:40 show from the van. You can see it in it's entirety here. We're hoping that the mean cemetery lady gets locked in at night.
