Vegan musical performing giant, Jingles, is leaving Venice Beach. CD 11 City Councilperson, Bill Rosendahl, presented him with a City Scroll honoring him as a Legend of Venice Beach.

Several persons spoke at the party held by Bill at his private home. All described Jingles as a good musician that had been at the Boardwalk for a long time, and as a wonderful helping individual.

It appears that he is now moving on to another place that will welcome him with open arms and ears, as so many hundreds of thousands of persons passing through Venice already have. In Philadelphia, and New York’s Greenwich Village, he kept people happy for years with his bells and guitar, according to VirtualVenice.

Jingles was always there to stand up for the homeless and everyone’s civil right not to be discriminated against. That is a service he provided for all of us.

It was nice of Bill to recognize Jingles. We will miss Jingles as our shining entertainer, and we will miss Bill as Councilperson of CD 11. I am hoping Jingles will have a party to honor Bill. To see and hear Jingles, visit this Youtube Link: http://bit.ly/XpAYbV.
