Did anybody catch The Ventures at the Namm show last week-end?
I was gonna go with Marty Tippens but I jacked up my foot the night before and didn't feel like walking around in pain all day, so I didn't go, and go figure, The Ventures show up.
Marty ended up being their red headed step roadie and helped them set up, but then he got sweet revenge and video taped the the whole show.
I don't know if it's been floatin' around here or not, but you can check out his edited version here: http://www.youtube.com/v/yRIUApJ9N8Q

I love the Ventures... alot a lot alot!!
but
at the moemt...in the present...no so healthy than the Muscle sound of D-D... i wish that Ventures play with more energy..like young Ventures..
If The Ventures...came Back arround the world...spomeday,,they will need more energy in his instrumentl rock....like thr last Link Wray shows..or the Last DD shows...
my opinion
— Skateboarding - "Gnarly Surf"

Yes I agree with Alfredo,
I saw the Ventures 2 times, and the 2nd time I fell asleep at the show.
I also saw Nokie playing with Deke Dickerson's Ventures Tribute band.
I thought their first set without Nokie was better, he came up, and the energy went down.

Give me a break.
Did you expect him to bang his head around like Angus Young?
Let's see what your doin' when you hit your 70's.
Your only in your 30's and your almost ready for a bed pan...............

At least I know how a cell phone works and how to return calls,
Jeeez man, I think I've called you about 20 times in the last year, and you maybe called me back twice.
sad.
besides Nokie is not a surf guitarist, why we talking about him.
