IvanP Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 10331 southern Michigan	Posted on Aug 01 2010 11:42 PM Don't know how many X fans we have here, but it's looking very likely that one Exene Cervenka will be attending the convention! Catherine of the Cossacks has struck up a bit of a friendship with her after seeing her and John Doe play in May, and since Exene lives in LA and likes surf music, she said she'll be attending! (She also said she loves our CD - Never Mind the Bolsheviks - which may have made Catherine's decade, as she's been an X fan forever!) Anyway, pretty cool, I think. — Ivan Lords of Atlantis on Facebook The Madeira Official Website The Madeira on Facebook The Blair-Pongracic Band on Facebook The Space Cossacks on Facebook The Madeira Channel on YouTube Top

Brian Joined: Feb 25, 2006 Posts: 19345 Des Moines, Iowa, USA	Posted on Aug 02 2010 07:14 PM Wow, I can't believe we are less than a week away. I'm getting pretty excited about the weekend's activities. And by the way, I'm a pretty shy guy in person, but please, please introduce yourself to me, it is so cool to put faces to screen names and talk to members in person. I cannot believe all the cool bands and people who will be there and at the surrounding events! I hope everyone has a safe journey to the convention, from the folks who have less than an hour to drive, to the poor dopes like me who have quite a day of travel ahead of them. — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site?

By the way, The US Open of Surfing Contest is going on in Huntington Beach this same weekend as well. I went yesterday (Sunday) for the opening weekend and the parking situation wasn't that bad at all. In fact ,we found parking in the beach lot, even though it said FULL, right away.... but get there early. It might be crowded, but do yourself a favor and see some of this surfing contest and visit Surf City while you are in town. — BOSS FINK "R.P.M." available now from DOUBLE CROWN RECORDS! www.facebook.com/BossFink www.doublecrownrecords.com Top

It's been nuts down here but lots of fun. So many people you can hardly walk down the sidewalk on the weekends. Still, if you can put up with he crowds, lots to do and see. Hopefully we will get some big surf for the finals. shivers13 Looking forward to the yearly SG101 family outing!

So many people you can hardly walk down the sidewalk on the weekends. Still, if you can put up with he crowds, lots to do and see. Hopefully we will get some big surf for the finals. For sure! The waves were less than stellar on Sunday but it was still a blast. Seems like the regulars right of the pier were tearing it up more than the pros on the left. Still, the energy was palpable. And seeing lines of good-looking girls waiting to get the pros autographs was a hoot. Fellas, drop them guitars and learn to surf! Seriously, if you're in town don't let the crowds keep you away. It's a blast. — BOSS FINK "R.P.M." available now from DOUBLE CROWN RECORDS! www.facebook.com/BossFink www.doublecrownrecords.com Top
