Posted on Apr 07 2010 12:56 AM 00Diablo If I recall correctly, there was a preview of a forthcoming surf documentary shown at the 1st SG101 convention. Looked good, and I thought the release was pending. Whatever happened to that one? Its still in the works, Hopefully it will be done, or at least we can show a longer trailer for it this year. It does have some newer bands. But I believe that "sound of the surf" is going to be very heavy on the 1st wave bands, guys. — Jeff(bigtikidude) Last edited: May 18, 2010 14:09:37 Top

Pappa_Surf Joined: Oct 28, 2008 Posts: 671 Winnipeg, Canada	Posted on Apr 07 2010 02:48 PM Brian You should come on down this year Pappa Surf. Thanks for the invite Brian, I would really love to come down and soak in all the reverb but that weekend would cost me about 2 grand and that's a bit too pricey for my family budget. Probably in a couple of years I'll try and make it coincide with a family vacation to California when the kids are a bit older. For now, I'll have to live vicariously through you guys and your YouTube videos. Has anyone considered setting up some better quality video/audio at the convention? In the land of moving pictures there has to be somebody who knows somebody who's cousin's brother is a cameraman. Or maybe some technical school kids would like to use the convention to do a video project. Just a thought. — https://www.facebook.com/index.php?lh=9353f9155b5ff32e14c998495fd00da4&#!/rich.derksen.7 Top

Insect Surfers. 60's surf legends and luminaries. 3 days of shows. Maybe more? Chance to mingle with your sg101 buddies. And, oh yeah, THE SPACE COSSACKS.

Brian Joined: Feb 25, 2006 Posts: 19267 Des Moines, Iowa, USA	Posted on Apr 07 2010 04:32 PM I don't mean to beat up on you or anyone, but if you do have the money and you do have the time open, and you like surf music, you simply have to come to this. Who knows how long we will be able to do this? And look at that lineup? I've been to the previous two and I can tell you that they were mind-blowing, life-changing experiences. Seeing all your SG101 friends in person and all those amazing bands is a truly amazing experience. Anyway, if you don't have the cash I totally understand. This is probably what is going to prevent me from coming this year (that and the acts of a deranged individual). That is why I feel so strongly that if you can make it, you should definitely go and help make this years an even bigger success than the prior two. You won't regret going. — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site? SG101 FAQ - Send me a private message - Email me "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea Top
bigtikidude Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 25541 Anaheim(So.Cal.)U.S.A.	Posted on Apr 07 2010 11:33 PM Brian, it bums me out to hear that you might not come this year. I wish for you the best outcome in the situation you are in. And hope that things turn around and you can make it. If not, I will have somebody video it again. But I do want you all to know, I would rather have you all here, and not have to video it, it just doesn't come across the same as it does in person. — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top

Just a thought... I have some connections with some of my previous video production students...I have one fellow in mind who does a great job shooting skateboard vids and YouTube commercial pieces...he might be interested...I think he might even have a sound guy... No promises yet...but I put out the feelers and see what I can do. Top
