(5/18/09, Los Alamitos, by Dave Emerson)  If you want to catch a glimpse of two of Los Alamitos’ civic treasures,  set your DVR to record John Underwood’s Backstory on Los Al TV 3 this week.

This week’s show features one of the more amazing people you’ll ever meet:  A 78 year old musician who’s still teaching in a middle school!  (To give some perspective, I’m a pretty energetic guy who was still a Scoutmaster in my 50s, but I was getting too old to teach Middle School before I turned 30!  And Band is probably the most challenging subject around for active 13-year-olds.)

If you have cable or Fios and live in Rossmoor or Los Alamitos, you can catch Backstory Friday night through Sunday, 6/21 at 7 p.m. on LosAlTV3.   If you’re settng your DVR, it’s a half hour.k

To check out the Los Al TV3 broadcast schedule, both now and in the future, click on the new “Los Al TV 3″ link in the column to the right under “Useful Links.”

As always, your comments are welcome, as long as they’re expressed diplomatically.
