New Talent Entertains at Hotel Laguna
Musician Fiz walked into the lobby of the Hotel Laguna and helped himself to the grand piano, despite the ‘do not play’ sign.
Rather than getting kicked out, the hotel’s operators fell in love with both his positivity and his chops, and asked him to stay.
Fiz now plays at the Oceanview Bar & Grill at Hotel Laguna every Friday and Saturday from 8 to 11 p.m. throughout 2011.
