HA! The Alvarados involved varying degrees of dress, though the Elms gig was on the less formal side. Here's a few highlights from the Alvarados scrapbook: Looking sharp at Fuel in San Jose Scary drunk man with bladder issues in Bolinas Lovely drunk lady with bumpersticker in Bolinas Manly men on a hot night in Kansas City |

I don't remember the name of the bar, it was in San Francisco, I think on Broadway, but it's long gone. Those Swallows Inn shows were fun. You were a champ stickin' out the whole gig! |

The sat nite one was funny you guys were def playing up the country side of things, as they wanted to line dance really bad to your music. the sunday afternoon show was 4 sets and you guys played tons of surf songs also. that was a great show, too bad there was maybe 6 people there.

The country line-dance thing was odd, but we survived. As for Sunday, I guess I was drinking alot, I thought I saw twelve people at that show! |

You must've been drinking a lot 'cause there were only six. You really need to get a handle on that Maneschewitz problem. The artist formerly known as: Synchro When Surf Guitar is outlawed only outlaws will play Surf Guitar. |

Yikes! I played with Drew here in Delaware for a while, and we certainly had some unusual gigs, but we never played shirtless... My hat (and shirt) are off to you, Mel! |
Cool videos Mel. Why didn't you wear Hot Pants 
? j/k, that Vaquero song is cool man, also Mark IV, and Lover's Rock 
A Show Man, did you put that one together? 2x15 huh? I asked Zak and he told that 2x15 is good for the bass, this video just convinces me more. Hey that Mark IV song reminds me of some MBP song I've heard, the intro I mean 
I've been trying to get that stupid song out of my head ever since he started this thread. 
look at the guy in the bottom of the picture, he's staring straight into the camera's lens, Please visit our friends in the surf music community:
