I thought I would start a thread for surf concerts that folks could watch at home. We had several gigs cancelled due to the pandemic. So....for your listening and dancing pleasure, here is a full USK set from 2012.
There are of course tons of surf music concerts on YouTube, so I will focus on some stuff I keep coming back to and also some, of which I have the feeling that they didn't get talked about much here.

Los Apollos - cinematic surf music trio (Berlin)
"Postcards from the Scrapyard" Vol. 1, 2 & 3 NOW available on various platforms!
"Chaos at the Lobster Lounge" available as LP and download on Surf Cookie Records!
Many cool videos in here but holy shit thank you simoncoil for posting that Los Twang! Marvels live video! Did not know them yet. Great sound, the lead guitarist and the drummer do have great tasty chops and the rhythm guitar and bass are just tight. What a great performance, instant fan. And even two Link Wray tunes were included. Are they still active? I can’t find any recent information, the latest album seems to be from 2008.

Los Twang Marvels are no longer active. I was lucky enough to catch them live at Surfer Joe in 2009. What a great show.
