tdsurf Joined: Aug 13, 2007 Posts: 409	Posted on Jun 19 2011 06:18 AM Lorenzo's band rocked the Surfer Joe fest last night. They will be a force to be reckoned with. Especially liked one number, I don't know the name but it had traces of bumble bee in it and especial "Dark Eyes" ala Eddie Bertrand tribute style. Surely vids will surface soon. td — Sound of the Surf, the movie Facebook SOTS Top
CousinMary Joined: Nov 16, 2009 Posts: 1076 San Francisco Bay Area	Posted on Jun 21 2011 12:31 AM BTD, it helps the bands to buy raffle tickets, right? Last year I bought $20 worth of tickets and won so many things that it was embarrassing! So if everyone would help me out this year and would buy a lot of raffle tickets to give me some competition, that would be good because I am feeling lucky.. Raffle ticket math: Admission is $25 but you think it is worth $50, spend the other $25 on raffle tickets. Top

Mary, Yes you are correct. all the money from the raffled Items, goes back to the bands. not only will there be cds and tshirts for the raffle, But there will also be a Jazzmaster Guitar, and an effect pedal, as separate raffle items, — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top
