Ah yes, sorry I confused XKE and the other Martians tune. A Boss Martians cover is pretty damn cool in my book. —Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |

Hello, Here is the last of the footage I have from Baja Marty's party. I was dissapointed that I only got 6 of The Eliminators songs, I can't remember for sure ..it was either my third battery gave out or I ran out of tape! I am also sorry I do not have any of The Boardwalkers! I hope to see them play again so I can correct the mistake! The Eliminators Play Chief Whoopin' Koff The Eliminators Playing Dawn Patrol The Eliminators Playing Long Live The King The Eliminators Playing Mystery Song The Eliminators Playing Parafin Jungle The Eliminators Playing Rincon I do have one question.. should I post all of these URLs in the forum about surf videos on the internet? I had a specific request for The Volcanos so I am going to do the videos from Phyllises Musical Inn last summer in Chicago. So there will be footage of The Madeira, The Cocktail Preachers and of course The Volcanos. I will post the to the surf videos on the internet forum. |

Who is the lead guitarist for the Eliminators? He gets an amazing tone out of that Jag. Showman or other? They are one band I'd love to play with this summer. I wish we could spend a week in Southern California but then it wouldn't be as much of a tour. |

Guy, now the 2 vids play but are the same song??? Jake that is Joe. impretty sure hes using a showman , but it could be smaller since its not a huge stage like they usually play, and its probably a 1x 12 Cab instead of a big boy, but I really didnt pay attention that night, so much stuff going on, and people to talk to. But yeah they did rip it up. way better than a normal gig. Jeff(bigtikidude) —Jeff(bigtikidude) |

Sounds like Depth Charge to me (both of them). Man, Rincon is such a cool song. |

Thanks for posting these, Guy. It's awesome getting to see this stuff again. Once definitely wasn't enough. -Warren —That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. |

He is Joe Kurkowski. He is one of the best out there. He writes some great original material. They are a really tight band. Doug Harlow the drummer is one of the outstanding surf drummers. Frank Hughes on Bass keeps things nice & steady. Their front man Preston has a great respect for the history of surf music. Bill Swanson on sax is way cool. MW Surf Guy... Thanks for the great vids. Any chance you can post the Elimimnators doing Punta Baja, Cross Steppin & El Burracho? |

The Mystery song by the Eliminators is definitely Depth Charge (Jon & the Nightriders). The 4:12 mystery song by The Surf Kings is called Tears of the Dolphin, there is a live version on the Celebration of Life CD recorded at the Pitcher House. |

That was the best party ever. The look on Marty's face was priceless. I'll never forget as he walked in the door, Slacktone started with Miserlou, and Marty started to cry. He recently told Sean that is was so amazing because he didn't realize how many people loved him. Well, we do Marty! Your presence at shows will certainly be missed.

What an incredibly touching story! I had only been around him a couple of short times, but he just seemed to be a giant beating heart of passion and joy for this music and the friends that were always around him. We should all be so lucky to have someone around that lights a room up like that man did. —
