The Surf Kings haven't been plaiyng a whole lot latley, as Rico has had some arm/wrist problems, and Tom has been doing a stage/musical side project. Hope they get back into the swing of things. They seemed to really knock it out of the park the other day.
But I was busy across the street helping Billy from the Detonaotrs try to park his Motor home, and then being told he had to move it.
and Help him back it out of the lot.
Then had to stand in a open parking spot across the street for 20 min. to hold the spot for Tiki Tena and her family. While it was a holiday weeknd and everybody kept stopping and asking if the spot was open.
So I could hear the Surf Kings, but I was a bit off in the distance.
But what I could hear was killer.

Yep, the Surf Kings were indeed great! And probably still not at their best. I think Rico really fits well with Tom these days, I didn't feel that way a couple years ago. But, boy, do they ever play together well now!
Too bad things were so chaotic, and Rico had to leave early for another engagement, I would have enjoyed the SKs playing longer. And a new song, not on either CD as I recall, titled "Marijuana"!
Ooops, they're coming to test me as I type...

Wow, red knob Showmans. Don't see too many of them. Wasn't the red knob line the last point-to-point amps Fender (non-custom-shop) made?

Rev, I would think you would know this considering your name.
Marijuana is a Rev. Horton Heat song.
