bigtikidude Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 25566 Anaheim(So.Cal.)U.S.A.	Posted on Apr 12 2006 09:58 PM I have all their early stuff, but need to get the last couple things. I wanna make a cdr comp of all the instro stuff, from all the cds. The one time I saw them was at the Palace in Hollywood with Man or Astroman. Great show!! My Favorite cd/ep is a Halloween/scary stuff, aussie import called Zombified. Grab it if you see it, very hard to find, outta print I think. Jeff(bigtikidude) — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top
IvanP Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 10331 southern Michigan	Posted on Apr 12 2006 10:09 PM Love 'em!! Saw 'em live many years ago, played Sleazefest twice, which they co-hosted. In fact, just a couple of weeks ago I went through all their stuff I have and compiled their instro stuff for my iPod. Here's what I have: Rumors Of Surf (ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!) Mexy-Melt (DITTO!) El Mysterioso Wheels Viva De la Santo! Skullbucket Make Mayan A Hawaiian Galley Slave I'm Branded I know they've had a lot more instros through they years, but this is what I've got. A really talented and multidimensional band - and awesome people to boot! (We did hang out a bit at Sleazefest, they took a liking to the Cossacks... Good times...)

butchdelux Joined: Feb 26, 2006 Posts: 250 Port Fierce, Florida	Posted on Apr 13 2006 01:12 PM Huge fan. Going to see them in Ft Lauderdale next week, for the umpteenth time...Miller is one sick surf guitarist...what can I say, I love to watch the man work. My faves (including repeats from above): Tunafish Every Day Mexi-Melt (<---awesome live....usually does as a medley w/ "Miserlou") The Wet Spot (one of the first covers we did as a band). Walleyed New Cooter Boogie (great surf solo) Red Beans N' Reverb (best.song.title.ever) Hillbilly surf garage? I'm all about it. — The Disasternauts Top
Twangler Joined: Mar 26, 2006 Posts: 147	Posted on Apr 14 2006 12:57 AM SCOTS are great. I haven't had the opportunity to see them in several years but started seeing them... Holy Shit... 16 or 17 years ago when I was at the U of Alabama. Now I feel old. Back when cover was $3 and beer was $1.50 and hang overs where the norm. 'Viva Los Santo!' Top
MikeG Joined: Mar 29, 2006 Posts: 309 Springfield, Oregon	Posted on Apr 14 2006 11:36 AM I saw them last year at the W.O.W. hall in Eugene. They were pretty good, but I have to say the whole chicken/Santo thing just didn't do anything for me. We cover Galley Slave, but we play it in A-minor. Top
Fez Joined: Mar 22, 2006 Posts: 197 Florida	Posted on Apr 21 2006 09:10 PM Southern Culture on the Skids rocks! They are playing in Florida this week, and I am going to see them on Sunday. Ditch Diggin' is my favorite album by them... Meximelt is currently my favorite instro song that they do. Cheers! Fez Top
