HBkahuna Joined: Mar 02, 2006 Posts: 1778 Star, Idaho. Formerly lived in Surf City USA.	Posted on Nov 13 2006 10:58 PM Some interesting interaction between father & son. This was in Balboa next to the beach last month. All in all an enjoyable show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nvn-8_uO8fY Top
IvanP Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 10331 southern Michigan	Posted on Nov 13 2006 11:15 PM That is very embarassing, and somewhat disturbing... It comes off like Dick is completely dominating this poor kid and forcing him to basically be just like his dad - and what teenager wants THAT??? There may be a lot of psychological scars for many years to come here.... BTW, are my eyes deceiving me, or is Jimmy's right-hand Strat strung like his dad's, with the high E on top of the fretboard and the low E on the bottom? If so... YIKES!!!

SurfBandBill Joined: Mar 15, 2006 Posts: 1487 San Francisco	Posted on Nov 14 2006 01:17 AM Wowwwwwwww, that was just plain awkward to watch. Ivan, it LOOKS like Jimmy's guitar is strung up with a standard setup. God, imagine what would have happened if Jimmy's little kick had landed. It's funny, part of why I get along with my pops is because we have such different interests. I can only imagine what might happen if he tried to push me into engineering in front of a capacity crowd... ~B~ Top

HBkahuna Joined: Mar 02, 2006 Posts: 1778 Star, Idaho. Formerly lived in Surf City USA.	Posted on Nov 14 2006 07:28 AM The strat was set up in the standard manner for a right handed player. The interaction between father & son was interesting to say the least. I'm not sure if it was part of the act or not. I'd be very curious to know. Top

dp Joined: Feb 26, 2006 Posts: 3546 mojave desert, california	Posted on Nov 14 2006 10:14 AM i thought that jimmy's karate-kid kicking was disrespectful...but, it seemed Dick's barking orders like a drill sergeant during the middle of "miserlou/pump it" is pretty disrespectful too... it must be difficult growing up on-stage like that...especially during those early teen years. likewise, i bet it's difficult for Dick to have his son assert himself onstage... hopefully, this is not the norm and simply one of those "rough days" during the teen raising experience.

bigtikidude Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 25538 Anaheim(So.Cal.)U.S.A.	Posted on Nov 14 2006 10:42 AM This is (one) of the Reasons why I don't pay to go see the dickster anymore. I don't wanna see him telling Jimmy how to play, and see the friction on stage. Most of the So Cal shows have Jimmy at them now, unless its at a club that is 21 and up. Very akward to watch indeed. Jimmy is getting better each time I do see him. But I just wanna see Dick rip it up like he used to. But there is always to many pauses and transitions, and medlys.

IvanP Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 10331 southern Michigan	Posted on Nov 14 2006 02:01 PM Yep, you guys are right regarding the stringing of Jimmy's Strat - it's standard. I watched the thing again, and what I thought was Jimmy playing on the high-E string when clearly on top of the fretboard, was actually Dick doubling him up on a high-E. But that doesn't really matter, there are still many issues here.....

surfneptune Joined: Mar 16, 2006 Posts: 923	Posted on Nov 16 2006 05:52 PM Dick is actually mocking the Black Eyed Peas song that used his sample. Not that I am an expert at pr, but think of this, your song gets sampled by a HUGE hip hop act. Would you: Take the check for the sample and mock the Hip-Hop act every time you play the song they sampled. Take the check for the sample and mention it to your crowd as a positive proof that the youth of America connect with your music! Talk to the hip-hop act about playing your sample live at each stop of the tour, thus exposing your music to a new audience and create major buzz. Now perhaps Dick tried that, and the black eyed peas rejected the idea. Creating animosity, in which case mocking them would be understandable. I have no idea how that deal went down. So I don't mean to imply anything. I was curious how others might react to that situation. Your public image is important, and a lot of people in the spotlight forget how important it is, and end up jumping on oprah's couch and yelling at Matt Lauer. — THe NEpTuNeS Top

vindawop Joined: Oct 20, 2006 Posts: 13 Fresno	Posted on Nov 16 2006 11:51 PM Regardless of what is going on with Dick and Jimmy, at least he is playing and not talking. The one time that I did see Dick Dale live, Jimmy was about four and banging on the drums. Dick was on his soapbox for more than half the show.

Jeff(bigtikidude) yeah, it's with a lot of DD stage personnae, he seems to think his audience likes the act, so he does it.. there's a video on youtube of Dick Dale from a show couple of months ago, where he did the same routine. I saw him last week in Europe, the EXACT same routine as on that video, same words, same hand movements. it's just an act. Dick's acts don't seem to change much ove rthe years. yet the show I saw last week was very different form the show I saw two years ago (and much better too ) WR — Rules to live by #314: "When in Italy, if the menu says something's grilled, don't assume it is." https://www.facebook.com/The-Malbehavers-286429584796173/ Top
