Remember that post about Russian Billionaire Andrey Melnichenko’s 300 million dollar yacht sitting off the Venice Pier?
Just got an email from a Yo! Venice! pal that is a reporter:
I cannot confirm yet but my source says the Russian Billionaire with the ridiculous 300 million dollar yacht is buying an entire OFW block. Being familiar with the current properties for sale on OFW I checked with my title company and found that a title order had recently been opened on the multiple properties in the 500 to 600 block of OFW.
Tomorrow night is the closing night for the 26th season of the Twilight Dance Series at the Santa Monica Pier and will feature Dr. John and opening act Eddie Baytos. As always, the shows are free and start at 7 pm.
An icon of American music born in New Orleans, Dr. John is indelibly linked to the traditions and singularity of the city’s musical and cultural heritage. Mac Rebennack burst onto the rock & roll scene in the late 60s as Dr. John, the Night Tripper, merging the Rhythm and Blues, voodoo rhythms and chants of his native New Orleans to create a persona perfect for the psychedelic era. Over the years he’s thrown Jazz, Classic American Songbook, Zydeco, Boogie Woogie and Rock into the musical mix.

The wonderful ladies that volunteer at the Venice Library have requested your assistance for the “Friends of Venice Library” book sale. Many of these wonderful ladies that work at the library find it a bit beyond their expertise and physical abilities to move large boxes of books.
If you have an SUV or truck and can lift boxes of books, civic duty says you should help the ladies out!
Venice Library Book Moving Party for the Ladies.
September 10th from 11a.m. to 2 p.m.
Please call 310-821-1769 to volunteer.
