So I sent out our surfed out version of Greg Kihn's tune "The Break Up Song" to him last night, and he posted it on his Facebook page this morning. Pretty cool of him to do. We got lots of likes, and a bunch of comments. Some very interesting comments from his fans. He basically asked them what they thought of it. Some good comments, some bad, but mostly good. If anything, it's a great insight to see how people react to a rock tune being surfed out, and their take on surf music.

I'm not on FB, so I can't see all the comments, but that's pretty awesome! I could see the video though - I dig it!

There is a few people talking.
But the loudest one is my dad.
I hope banned from the beach does this song at the pier today.
