Yes, agreed. This was the first time I got reminded of a great show I saw in the mid-90's, the time I saw his dad live in Amsterdam. Hats off! For the rest, the program got better as the evening progressed, only the heavy distorted sound for most of the evening on the mainstage was a bit of a bummer to be honest, but it seems they worked it out and replaced the faulty showman head with another one and there was no distortion that wasn't meant intentionally during Jimmy Dale's set. I honestly found the offerings yesterday and today up to Humanga Danga rather mediocre. I mean: the Undercurrents, two kids sitting in a chair and doing the teenage thing with no rhythm section, just picking Madeira songs? Come on! In all I liked pretty much everything on the mainstage except that the Kileauas could use a little variation in their offerings. Their tunes sound pretty much alike after a while. —Albums: Changing label. https://magnatech.bandcamp.com Last edited: Jun 23, 2023 19:09:28 |

I just finished watching "The Sound of Dick Dale" in yt, what a great talk! I highly recommend to everyone. So much food for thought out of this, and it turned out to be quite inspirational. I grabbed my guitar immediately after watching this The whole event seems awesome overall, so many good performances. I hope I will be able to join in person next year! |

I enjoyed the Dick Dale talk too. The big takeaway for me is that DD didn't worry about how others did things, he just figured out his own way and in the process created his own unique style. I'm sure at the time most other guitarists would say he's playing 'wrong' (and Jimmy even said this). Time has proven them quite wrong. I think this is a good lesson about not obsessing on how to sound like 'X'. Learn the basics of music as it pertains to the guitar, and then find your own way. In his time, gear options were limited so he had to work on his technique. I say this is still the best way to develop your own unique style, limit gear choices to a small part of your journey to playing music. —Danny Snyder I am now playing trumpet with Prince Buster tribute band 'Balzac' Playing keys and guitar with Combo Tezeta Formerly a guitarist in The TomorrowMen and Meshugga Beach Party Latest surf project - Now That's What I Call SURF |

On a separate point, I wish the youtube feed could switch on the chat, so the rest of us can communicate as we watch —Danny Snyder I am now playing trumpet with Prince Buster tribute band 'Balzac' Playing keys and guitar with Combo Tezeta Formerly a guitarist in The TomorrowMen and Meshugga Beach Party Latest surf project - Now That's What I Call SURF |

Watched the talk with Jimmy Dale and these other guys and indeed, very interesting, especially the point what Danny points out, how Dick Dale was supposed to play guitar the "wrong" way. Albums: Changing label. https://magnatech.bandcamp.com |

Unfortunately the live feed of the Scimitars is being badly handled. The timing between the feed and the music is off by about 30 seconds, and they have just moved the cameras back to the main stage so we can watch Les Agamemnonz set up. I hope they get it figured out soon! —Patrick |

What a treat are the Surfaris! Just goes to show the First and Second wave are and always will be the best! By far the best show I've seen so far and I think that nothing that comes tomorrow can tap on that one. So for now: 1. Surfaris; 2. Jimmy Dale/ex aequo with Satans Pilgrims; 4. Bradipos IV; 5. Les Agamemnonz. And yes, the feed abruptly stopped, but was replaced. —Albums: Changing label. https://magnatech.bandcamp.com Last edited: Jun 24, 2023 18:44:21 |

What's up with The Lords of Atlantis live stream. It jumps around from place to place in the song and then just ends. I think there's a ghost in the machine! The music however is great! —Patrick |

The sound is all over the place today, almost unbearable. It cuts off when the show is not over yet and then suddenly starts and now with the Lords of Atlantis it's one time almost inaudible, so you set your volume higher to be able to listen and then suddenly it's full strength and you nearly fall off your chair for it being so loud and just as you turned the volume down again, it jumps back to barely audible. Takes the fun out of watching, tbh. Albums: Changing label. https://magnatech.bandcamp.com Last edited: Jun 25, 2023 14:33:21 |

I was lucky to make it to Livorno to catch Saturday night’s shows and wow I was blown away. Congratulations to Lorenzo, the bands and everyone else involved. It was truly an evening to remember! —Paul |
