February Birthdays 
Orange County (CA) was one of the original regions where surf music was born and remains a good place to here surf music at car shows, SG 101 conventins, some bars, restaurants and summer street fairs.

Ok, where are The Eliminators, Nomads, Outerwave and the rest of the OC bands we all know from SG 101? It almost looks like bands that were not included in other catagories were tossed into Surf Music to recognize them.
If you want to vote....here's where

Do these bands (except Mai Tais) fit the title "Surf Music"?
—Happy Sunsets!
