There was a small dance crowd that night considering it was not well promoted and it rained the whole day which had affected attendance for sure. I enjoyed this event a lot more than the Great LA AIr Raid as it was not a mad house and Ray and I had lots of time to check out the train and the vehicles plus it was next to the fisherman's market and LA Harbor.
