Thanks for putting it out there Danny, I should have done it a while ago.
We have played there a number of times. So has, The Exotics, Reluctant Aquanauts, 13 Tikis,Dick Satan Trio,and others I'm sure.
This guy "Gets It" There is only ONE TV on over the bar, and when ever we play, "The Endless Summer" is on the TV, or some other Cool movie.
(Bettie Page bondage movies later)
The "Dueling"Stages is a cool thing also. Two bands set up on either end,
play a set, give a heads up to the next band on their last song, then it's your turn, people are actually WATCHING the band.
Surf is pretty well received there. The Wraybands really like to play there.

Yep, Kochanskis is a pretty fun place to play. Andy, the owner is big on roots music, including blues, rockabilly and surf, and he is always looking for bands. He has a great beer selection too, heavy on Polish beers. If you book a gig there let me know so I can help you promote on my radio show.
