CousinMary Joined: Nov 16, 2009 Posts: 1066 San Francisco Bay Area	Posted on Jun 11 2012 05:26 PM Attention old people! The Residence Inn across the street from the Starting Gate has a senior discount if you are over 62. Still probably twice as much as Don's Turf Motel, but it includes breakfast, etc. Top
bigtikidude Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 25488 Anaheim(So.Cal.)U.S.A.	Posted on Jun 12 2012 01:53 PM Ladies and Gentlemen, Just added to the Legends Jam portion of the SG101 convention. The Nocturnes with Jim Frias on sax, back for this one time show. and possibly Danny O'Steen, also an original sax player. If Danny shows up that will be 5 of the 7 original members, also Rick Bastrup of the Avengers VI is in the Noctunres now, maybe we can convince them into doing a song or 2 of the Avengers VI. http://www.amazon.com/Rare-Surf-Volume-2-Nocturnes/dp/B000XE7X8A — Jeff(bigtikidude) Last edited: Jun 12, 2012 13:54:23 Top

IvanP Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 10331 southern Michigan	Posted on Jun 12 2012 08:21 PM Just heard Third Star to the Left on my iPod at the gym a bit ago (had my classic surf playlist on shuffle). Damn, that one still sounds amazing, all these many years later. Personally, I think our (the Cossacks) version doesn't come even close to the original. Really looking forward to seeing them, especially with Jim back in the fold!

I am waiting to see if they can handle a group of 40 or 50 like before. But I need a heads up on how many exactly. So here is the sign up list. http://surfguitar101.com/forums/topic/18615/ — Jeff(bigtikidude) Last edited: Jun 13, 2012 14:38:09 Top

Posted on Jun 14 2012 12:44 AM If you can find either one of these cds, get them, The Nocturnes recordings were never released in the 60s, but a lot of bands have covered Some of the Nocturnes songs, mainly 3 rd star to the Left.

Rare Surf Vol. 2 I recently picked up Rare Surf 1: PJ & Artie, PJ & the Galaxies, The Journeymen, Rare Surf 2: The Nocturnes, Wheely McSidewalk, Revelaires, Vibrants and Rare Surf 3: Johnny Fortune, Johnny Barakat and the Vestells. Turns out Bomp had 'em and appears to still have copies at a pretty reasonable price to boot! Just follow the links above and put 'em in yer cart — Fady El Mirage @ ReverbNation Top
bigtikidude Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 25488 Anaheim(So.Cal.)U.S.A.	Posted on Jun 30 2012 07:07 PM Pure 7 member band Awesomeness! 2 sax, 2 guitars, Piano, Bass, and drums. Its like a surf orchestra. For those that haven't heard it before. Or to get some people pumped up for seeing them play at SG101 convention, in the Legends Jam.

Posted on Jul 01 2012 06:39 PM Almost 1 month away, all the other surf festivals are over, lets get a big push and rev up for: The 2012 Surf Guitar 101 Convention #5 and in doing so, I would like to announce the SG101 convention website: http://surfguitar101.com/convention/HOME.html Jonpaul, and Brian, I just want to extend a sincere heartfelt thank you for all yer hardwork on putting that together. It looks awesome. I don't know anything about doing a site. So this is light years beyond anything I could ever do or want. I don't know who did more work, But I do know that there was a lot of work and time put into this effort. So I would like to thank you both equally.
