I hadn't seen it before. Thanks for posting it, Danny! I will add to this that Dave is as nice a person, and as generous a musician, as anyone I've ever met.

This is really great, thanks for sharing here Danny.

One of the greatest pleasures from starting SG101 is meeting all these fantastically creative people like Dave Arnson. And Dave is really one of a kind. He's just a joy to be around, and such an amazing and gifted musician. Sign me up for the Dave A fan club please!

I dig Dave and the Insects so very much. This really captures the supreme coolness that is Dave Arnson.

What can you say. DA weaves some really complex threads in surf music. I call it prog surf and with MA to trade off leads with and the rest of this great band they have created some uniquely fantastic music. Besides Dave was one of the first guys to welcome me after I posted the first KK video. Thought that was really cool...

Very cool, Proud to call them my favorite surf band.
I am still blown away by these guys in the current line up.
And Infra Green is a modern masterpiece of edgy surf. Get it now before they are all gone. Dave said that the cds n Lps are getting low.
