MrBackwards Joined: Mar 02, 2006 Posts: 86 On the Island of Hawaii	Posted on Apr 14 2015 05:09 AM My most surprising Surf Music in unexpected places for me was a few years ago. My Work flew me to California to take an intensive one-week course in Photoshop. The class was in San Anselmo, I got booked into a Motel further up into the mountains in a small town called Fairfax, in the Muir Redwoods. My room was over the downstairs Bar called “19 Broadway” it was late at night and as I was unpacking and getting settled and what do I hear Being played LIVE downstairs? Penetration! I couldn’t get down there fast enough. It was the last set Of a Surf/Tiki band called APE. The whole time they played, there was an artist/drummer in the middle of the stage Hand-carving a HUGE TIKI to the rhythm of the music. A great group and show. After the show, I talked to the band and they said I was the first person to know the name of THAT song! The last thing I ever expected to hear, high in the woods!

tahitijack Joined: Nov 03, 2006 Posts: 693 San Clemente, CA	Posted on Jun 11 2015 10:04 AM Visited SeaWorld in San Diego this week. Music played throughout the park changes from one sector to the other. Near the Shark Encounter the Discoveries shop has surfboards racked up against the building and the music playing outside in this area is instrumental surf music. It is SeaWorld after all but, still surprising to hear surf music at a theme park. Did not recognize any songs, perhaps it was surf-muzak. — Happy Sunsets! Top
Ariel Joined: Aug 29, 2009 Posts: 1556 Israel	Posted on Jun 26 2015 06:53 AM Anyone listen to Ron Bennington (at SiriusXM)? Radio genius, legendary interviewer, the last relevant broadcast dinosaur of these times. He regularly breaks with surf numbers - a lot of Rumble and Surf Rider. Last few weeks he's been playing even newer stuff, I've heard The Space Cossacs, Insect Surfers and Mermen. Someone should reach out to him, I'm certain he'd be interested in exploring the current surf scene even more. The guy has reach, and a cool, dedicated listener base. Top

Just to make clear - he's not a Music D.J. (anymore) it's a comedy-talk show. Honest, funny and insightful. I personally catch it on "the Internet". Last edited: Jun 26, 2015 10:24:45 Top
planish Joined: Jan 09, 2008 Posts: 473 Sackville, New Brunswick	Posted on Jul 13 2015 03:08 AM We were watching the first part of "Independance Day" on TV, and all of a sudden I recognize Link Wray's "Rumble" playing on a diner jukebox, I think. (about 19 minutes in?) Randy Quaid's character is being eased about his earlier alien abduction, and when the alien ship passes there's a shaking that coincides with the solo part (such as it is) up on the 12th fret. — I'm not a complete idiot. Some parts are missing. Top
