This is going to be a great show. The band has been working on lots of old and new stuff. Sure (as someone told me), this is not your Mother's surf music, but its really fresh and dynamic.

The show last night at the Park Chalet was fantastic. What a scene, and what great music. Wish I could go tonight to Slim's. —Buy Speed of Dark @ Bandcamp |

This HAD to be a great show!!! I always loved seeing bands at SLIMS. I'd have been there in heartbeat if were still in SF!! Please tell me someone went to this and was blown away! I remember right before I moved, I was working at the Beach/Park Chalet, and used to grab a beer after my shift and just sit and listen to music. That was when The Shi-Tones played weekly. Wow, what a great time that had to have been. —

Both shows together were an event no cell in my body will soon forget. The music was non-stop, ecstasy. Very inspiring. Videos are already showing up from the Slims show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTwwO8z-ToQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJG5hCLJrV4 FYI, The Mermen have redone their website at: http://mermen.net with a store where they have old and new music being offered for download at reasonable prices. Oh, one other crazy thing - I have heard they are opening for The Surf Coasters at Moe's in September! Blu |

It's true, but it will be the Shitones incarnation of the band. Still, that is a helluva bill. ferenc —Buy Speed of Dark @ Bandcamp |
