as many people here at SG101 are aware, I put on a SURF-ROCK SHINDIG every first Saturday of the Month at OTTO's SHRUNKEN HEAD in New York City on November 6, 2010, I will presenting a show at OTTO's. however, on that night, it will be with 6 bands, instead of 4 bands; and the show will start at 7 pm, instead of 9 pm -- each band will begin their performance at the top of each hour instead of a SURF-ROCK SHINDIG, it will be an UNSTEADY/WOOD "BEACH BALL". I will again be doing a show with FRANK WOOD, leading independent music promoter in the NYC area http://www.mrfwood.com/ Frank will be doing his annual "10 Days Of Wood" where he presents shows every night for 10 days in a row (I believe Day #1 is November 5, so this will be Day #2??) so far 3 bands have committed, and it looks to be shaping up into a special show! 10 PM-THE OCTOMEN I need a band for 7pm, 8pm, and 9pm If interested, write me, schizofredric@yahoo.com, or send me a message thru SG101 Thanks! UNSTEADY FREDDIE p.s. I am also posting this in my SURF-ROCK SHINDIG thread, so please forgive the double-posting; just want to get the word out — |

regarding the NOVEMBER 6 UNSTEADY/WOOD "BEACH BALL" the bands confirmed, as announced, was incorrect..... so far, we have: 9 PM - The Octomen (sorry to the TarantinosNYC for the oversight, and thanks to Rattlesnake Ralph for moving The Octomen to 9 PM) UNSTEADY FREDDIE — |

re-did the poster to reflect the fact that it will be a benefit for OTTO'S SHRUNKEN HEAD, and that the venue is now THE DELANCEY -- all bands are still a "go", which is wonderful!! UNSTEADY FREDDIE

Hey.. I am going to be with a friend on Saturday, going to try to convince him to come down to the city for this show. Any idea what the parking situation is like in that neighborhood? I usually drive down to the city and look for free or "cheap" muni-metered parking at worst. |

I figured as much... I am usually good at finding parking in Manhattan.. I am pro on the upper west/east sides and E/W Village. Wish me luck! I am almost 100% on coming down to this show. My friend and I from Queens are going to come in probably, so maybe we will take a train.. who knows. Anyway, if I go, I hope to meet all of you guys. If you recognize me, don't be shy!

Good show last night! Nice venue too. I had the pleasure of attending this show with a friend of mine last night and we had a really good time. All the bands were really good. We had to leave before El Muchacho unfortunately. I was lucky enough to meet Ralph of The Ocotomen and Unsteady Freddie who were both really great dudes. Some great guitar playing last night and beautiful gear too. |

Thanks to all the surf bands, past and present. And thanks to all the fans who care about and keep surf music alive.
Didn't have an opportunity to meet Mr. Psychonaut but he seemed busy and in the zone all night, so I didn't want to be annoying. Anyway - good times - great job Freddie for putting this show together.
