Question Where do you live? Are you the bass player? Do you play with the bands you listed?

My Web Site - Tunes - Pictures - Guitar Projects - Hard Rock Cafe Guitar Pins

Yes, I am the bass player for those groups and a few more.

I live close to Glendale/Burbank

Cool, Then I must have seen you at the HBSM show last Sunday. I'm not looking to start a band (but a guess anything can happen). I'd just like to get together with some guys in the area to play some surf tunes. I play guitar, but I'm not ready for to play for the HBSM Wink Do you know anyone else around here that would be interested? I did the early retirement thing last month Very Happy , so anytime is ok with me.

Yep, I played bass in the Planktones and rhythm/keys in the Flowmasters. Jamming is fine with me and starting June 1 or so I have days free too. Most of the folks I know are pretty serious so hopefully we will find some just-starting-out people from the list here. Do you prefer to play lead or rhythm ?

Doug

Hi, I play drums and work in Burbank. Would not mind jamming with some guys. I play drums for OuterWave and another band that do very early Beatles.

Looks like we have bass, drums and one guitar Very Happy I haven't been in a band since the 60s * . I used to play lead, but I sure wouldn't mind backing someone else too. Besides, you guys with bands might be a lot better then me, so maybe another lead player would be good.

  • Last summer I went back east to my 40th high school reunion. The band that was popular in our class got back together to do an hour show, and I joined them for a few tunes. I think I did a real decent job playing the lead to Mr. Moto. Cool

Hey Tony, that'll be great !! Let's start thinking about a day in June to get together. Saturday afternoons I have committed but Sunday afternoons or evenings are OK. I am in the process of clearing out a room in our house for a practice space so if I get that done it time we could rehearse here in La Crescenta.

doug:

get that room cleaned up!

having reverb mike come down to the desert from bakersfield finally got me off my ass to clean up my music/junkstorage room...it's cool to be able to find stuff and move around in there without tripping over the christmas decorations and boxes of who-knows-what...

even my 17 year old daughter was impressed with my "tidy up" job...
she said: "wow, what happened in here? there's like tons space and it looks like a room again!"

do it!

If it is cool with JeffLeites, maybe we can even ask Planktone Marty, Detonator Billy, The Glasgow Tiki Shaker Twins - Bill & Joyce to join in. Something cool to do in between gigs, surf jam.

Sure anything is cool with me. I'm not looking to be a leader, I just want to join in and play some surf tunes. Very Happy

Hey, what happened to the surge? When are we gettin’ together?

Doug

I guess after June 1 when you are available.

Is this going to be a small get together in someone's house, or a big bash where we'll need to rent some space.

My Web Site - Tunes - Pictures - Guitar Projects - Hard Rock Cafe Guitar Pins

I think we need to stay small for the first outing.

Doug - I sent you a PM with my phone number.

Small is ok with me too, but one of the replies here gave me another idea. The members of the Carvin Guitars forum sometimes get together for a regional "Carvin Bash" - a big jam party. The first one here in southern CA was held in someone's house in North Hollywood, and the one last year was in a rented studio or rehearsal hall (not sure, cause I had to miss that one) in Anihiem. Carvin even set up a "Carvin Bash" topic space on their forum for their members to get together for them.

So, as a seperate idea from us getting together, maybe we could have a Los Angeles area, or Southern California Surfguitar101 Bash... a big surf jam and pizza party. Very Happy

I would be totally down for something like this! Sounds like a lot of fun.
perhaps you could set up some sort of poll or thread and see if there is much interest in this idea.
