Details

The plan for this Meetup is to take a loop walk, to nearby points of interest. Then go to hear the music while having pizza and salad for lunch.
One of my fav spots for lunch is the Cheese Board Pizza Collective in N.Berkeley. One of the great things there is they always have live music at lunchtime.
Now about parking. We're meeting and parking at a location that has unrestricted all day parking.
What I have been doing for years and recommend is to park West of Eunice St. And have no worries about a ticket. Look for unrestricted parking around Yolo and Sutter Sts. You can park in most spots here all day.
here's a link to the Goggle map of the area. Please leave time for the parking situation.

Everyday at Cheese Board Pizza there is live music like on May 6th, 2025, Gabriel Bata and his band, The Eclectic Collective were playing. I was blown away. I had never heard this combination of sound. Gabriel's vocals were haunting. I describe it as a primitive form of American Jazz or at times sounding to me like a purer form of Jamaican/Caribbean. Gabriel described his music as Afro Folk. I think Berkeley's Pete Seegar would have loved this music.
