zunrj5 Joined: Jul 16, 2015 Posts: 259 ID	Posted on May 17 2017 12:37 PM This year will be my first SG101 convention and I want to make the best of it. I'll be coming from out of town and I'm not at all familiar with the area. If any of you experienced convention goers have advice you'd like to share it would be much appreciated. — -John The Seatopians 2017- The Seatopians on bandcamp Top
bigtikidude Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 25538 Anaheim(So.Cal.)U.S.A.	Posted on May 17 2017 12:42 PM Cool! Glad to hear you are coming. If possible, come early, check out other things besides just the surf shows. Many museums, historical buildings, amusement parks. Etc. Many great places to eat in LA, and OC. Sign up for the Fender factory tour Friday morning in Corona,thread elsewhere in general discussion below. If possible stay a day or 2 after for the historical surf music tour on Monday morning. — Jeff(bigtikidude) Last edited: May 17, 2017 12:43:04 Top

I realize it's being held over 3 days, 2 @ Alpine Village in Torrance.. Sister's making plans to take me away from reverb nirvana on Sunday tho Anyhow, is there a FAQ or facebook page listing particulars? -Is this a ticketed event? -Never been to Alpine Village, seems like a.. mall? Parking etc... I red there is a Fender factory tour on Saturday.. is it too late to squeeze two more? Thanks in advance! Top
Brian Joined: Feb 25, 2006 Posts: 19265 Des Moines, Iowa, USA	Posted on May 26 2017 08:53 AM Pacopeco: Excellent news you are coming out! There is a Facebook page for the SurfGuitar101 convention. Should be searchable (I'd link it but I'm currently on a FB self-imposed exile). Pay at the door Alpine Village consists of multiple buildings. Plenty of on-site parking. There is a separate thread for the factory tour. Don't know if full or not. — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site?

I'm looking for folks to car pool/share a cab since the Friday show and Sunday show are a decent little drive from Alpine Village.
