bigtikidude Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 25667 Anaheim(So.Cal.)U.S.A.	Posted on Apr 12 2009 11:14 PM Brian Well there are pros and cons to having a lot of people. The turnout last year was pretty damn good, I think it surprised a lot of people. In any event the people who do make it will have a fantastic time, that is for sure. Any chance Eddie Bertrand or Paul Johnson might show? well like I said before, the venue holds 400 people, not 100 like Suzy's. and Yes, Paul will be there. I am going to invite Eddie. — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top
D22 Joined: Apr 20, 2006 Posts: 2054	Posted on Apr 13 2009 09:39 AM Eddie should be the headliner IMO. I still love y'alls. When this Sound Of Surf comes out hopefully they'll have some great AV of him playing that will help tell the reason why I believe so. Anyone who was there knows.

Posted on May 04 2009 06:31 PM bigtikidude BoardwalkerJeff bigtikidude Probably a surprise short set by a band doin a reunion. a few weeks later. SHHH! lol who me? did I say that? OK its official, the unannounced reunion band wants to do a short set at the SG101Convention. they just had their first full lineup rehearsal and it went very good I heard. I'm freaking out here. this is huge. I would be stoked if someone else was putting together this event. for me to have someone like them, and the rest of the cool line up, it even a big deal for me. I'm truly thankful to all of the bands for agreeing to do it. Kristena is working on a Myspace for the event, and we will make the public soon. — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top

bigtikidude Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 25667 Anaheim(So.Cal.)U.S.A.	Posted on May 06 2009 12:49 PM Sad News, I just heard from Ander the Drummer for the Longboards from Spain. that they have to cancel the tour plans. I am very bummed to hear this. as I like the Longboards style and energy a lot. and was looking forward to them coming back. Hope all goes well for the band. good luck my friends. — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top

Billy of the Detonators and I will be going over the song list for this years surf jam. and with the Longboards not coming now. that will give us a bit more time for the Jam. and 1 more song, aka 5 min more per band. so keep an eye out soon for the sign up list for the Jam. — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top
