Greg Kihn graciously agreed to a photo shoot for our 2011 Best of Silicon Valley and showed up at our party in a South San Jose bowling alley. He was a titan in the music industry but down-to-earth member of the community at the same time. We were sorry to hear of his passing at the age of 75.

This week we pay tribute to SJZ Summer Fest, an event that was incubated in our office many years ago and has now broken out beyond jazz to embrace fusions and related musical genres. Gustavo Belman’s collage interprets this kaleidoscope with a stunning cover image.

Gary Singh remembers Chris Esparza, a cultural entrepreneur, club and restaurant owner and event producer who left a big footprint in the San Jose community. And Ethan Gregory Dodge writes about another loss, tattoo show owner Scott Weeks, who was profiled on the cover of Metro just three weeks ago.

Are you staying cool? While Raging Waters struggles to reopen (its ribbon cutting as CaliBunga was postponed last week), Fremont has an amazing water park (open to non-residents too!). That’s one reason why Fremont residents are happier than any place in the United States, according to Wallethub. We explore that subject this week in this week’s Metro, just as we welcome the Tri City Voice to our family of publications.
