Perfect. The very first SG101 "On the bass ... Derek Smalls. He wrote this," moment.
— That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it.

That's right, in honor of this annual Surf Party we're
playing Firewater. And we fully expect everyone to get
up and dance!!
Don't know how to dance to such a groovy tune? No
problem! Just watch the attached video and practice in
your bedroom.
The best dancer gets a free drink! And at 9 in the
morning, what could be better than dancing to surf
tunes and having a free drink??
See you in 3 weeks!
Damn-I'm sorry I can't make it. I'd be a cinch for that free drink! Why back in my day, I was a dancin' fool. Unfortunately, I've only retained half of that description. And you kids stay off my lawn!

If there's a spot anywhere, I'll have a guitar with me. I could chug some rhythm for ya's.

of Covers
at Don the beachcomber on Sunday, from 6 to 10?? after
the HB pier show.
This cool event doesn't get that much attention, but, I fought off the tired and went last year. Let me tell you, it was fun! Matt's surf karaoke thingamabob at Don's is extremely well thought out, works great, and is a real blast. The whole scene is very relaxed, with some great just-for-fun players from all levels made to feel really welcome, and lots of camaraderie as a side show. Be sure to try it!

I could not agree with this more. Like Trey says... fight the tired, and check this out. It's such a great way to unwind, jam on some tunes, drink some drinks and chat with friends. I certainly won't miss it!

I concur with these gentlemen as I'm sure quite a few others will. The "chill out" social atmosphere is a must for such an intense weekend. Come and play! This is the part of the weekend when Dave Arnson admits things you never knew about him. He's an amazing character!

The Jam was a ton of fun, despite my being so nervous. I'm actually already jonesing to get on stage again. What a blast!
Trey: I love the SSIV! It was an honor to play rhythm for you
Juan: Someday the Bodysnatchers will be a household name, and I can say I played live with you when you were "just Juan"
JohnPaul: Dude, you're a machine. We hand wrote notes for you 30 seconds before you got on stage with us and you nailed it. Its an easy song, but still. Much kudos. Plus, I've seen/heard you play in so many awesome bands. It was definitely an honor sharing a stage with you bro
I think next year I'll sign up for a Lead Guitar spot. Everyone make sure to bring extra heavy ear-plugs!

It was all for fun. No one had never played that tune before, we got the bassist about 30 seconds before we started. I don't think I exactly nailed it! Your playing was fine, man.

Thanks for those who signed up and played in the Jam,
Lets throw around some ideas for how the jam can be better next year.
I want it back up to 1 hour for sure.
