Hey Sorry this took me so long and the video is so dark, but here is the Slacktone set from Doll Hut 8-11-2012

No problem. Basically they were playing in the dark. I remember. It was a fabulous set, I thought. Now I get to listen to it again!

I am trembling on the verge of getting back to this week of stuff, complicated by issues with a video card (?), but before those developed I got to this from the Purple Orchid session ...

That Disasternauts set was one of my favorite parts of the convention weekend. Never heard so many Yuzo Kayama songs in one set, and I'd never seen anyone do Three Blue Stars live. Thanks for these!

Hot Summer Comes Again!
Let's Go Beach! Let's Go Beach!

Guy, thanks so much for going to the trouble of filming AND posting these! I almost prefer when they're posted months later, after the fact, as it's a chance to re-live the whole thing over again when it's just about out of mind. Cheers!

Tuck, I actually like those "infrared" clips! Thanks! Incidentally, the second tune is "Vaquita," a studio version of which will be on the forthcoming long-overdue new Insect Surfers album in 2013!

I remember standing off to the left of the stage seeing Marie near the bar and wondering where Jonpaul was, haha. I was also in that exact same spot 5 days ago watching the Tequila Worms. Now the Doll Hut is closed forever !! RIP Doll Hut.

Those Disasternauts did a great job on Redlined! Love that song!
I have a bunch more songs done, but don't know all of their names. Especially a few from the Rumblers and Paul Johnson & Friends Shou;ld I go ahead and post them? I am sure that some people will know the song names. Sorry this all took me so darn long to get them up here, Its just been crazy here! Cold weather helps, with less to do!
Thanks
Guy

CA: Mission to SG 101 August 2012 – with 9th Wave
............Long Post
Hey All,

Mike here, before this thread vanishes into the archives, I wanted to post my thoughts and thanks on behalf of the 9th Wave band. Sorry this post is more than late, the memory will last my lifetime. Time has passed by quickly, the days turned into months. Since returning from our trip - long work days, hurricanes, winter storms, holidays, gigs and life’s setbacks for everyone.

First off; thank you to the Big Tiki Dude Jeff, for considering 9th Wave to perform at the Convention, Huntington Beach Pier show and arranging Don’s the Beachcomber and all the other arrangements that make a successful week long music event. Tiki Tena was kind enough and willing to let us borrow and travel with her vintage Farfisa organ.
Special thanks go out to the Thee Swank Bastards, for helping us play a show with them in Las Vegas. Allen from Outerwave, for sharing their backline at Don’s Friday night; to Big Wave Dave Becker for the support, Tim Sullivan and Lorenzo for playing with me in the members jam and Sunday’s Don the Beachcomber wind-down jam. Dave F who captures us live at the convention and sent me the DVDs. Tuck, Dave Arnson, Midwest Surf Guy, Jon Paul & Marie, JD, and so many others…..

Memorable events other than playing shows:
• Winning the SG101 Limited edition Fender Stratocaster Guitar raffle and playing it during our Pier show. I’d like to let everyone know who may read this: there will come a day when I’m no longer able to play or own this fine guitar and in my wishes and for the record - if there is still an SG101 event (many years from now), this Guitar will be returned back to the community from where it was born to surf, be it as a raffle item or gift …but definitely in the ownership of a SG101 member or surf music museum.
• My interview with Clint Beachwood for his podcast show.
• Experiencing my first CAL earthquake and aftershocks.

6:00PM Don the Beachcomber wind-down jam, Sunday
BTD asked me if I could help pull a jam together for the Don’s after the Pier show, due to the fact that Matt Q and the Wave Machine was unavailable. I’d asked for help, needed and called on some well skilled players to meet up at Don’s. I’d like to thank Big Wave Dave Becker for playing bass guitar for almost 3 hours , Lorenzo for being the drummer on demand; I put Tim Sullivan on the spot to support and arrange music with musicians / combos, Jim Frias on sax, and of course ... special guest Paul Johnson for accepting an invite and playing with so many people, combinations, and songs. The SG101 Limited Edition Raffle Guitar came out of the case and was put to good use by a variety of fine players. A list of the different players / combos was kept for historical purposes.

Combinations of players:
- 9th Wave with Jim Frias, sax
- Los Venturas
