So Tim,
what did you think of them?

I heard conflicting reports back as I wasn't able to make it down there today, thanks for setting up the chairs and shades for me man.

If I gave an honest answer, I'm sure I'd be called "elitist."

Hey, the band donated it's time for a free show. Not the best or the worst I have seen. They did play some stuff I had not heard other bands do. Magnificant Seven, The Good, The Bad, The Ugly, A Summers Place - started out slow like The Tornados then hot rodded it. That was cool. The AK-47 guitar died on Secret Agent. It was hot, the band worked hard, it was free, there were lots of nice people & we were close to the beach. Worse ways to spend the day. I still have a buzz from the previous Sundays show at the beach.

Hey HBkahuna - don't be so hard on yourself - by "elitist" you probably mean "traditionalist", which I used to be, but then I got tired of hearing surf bands playing the same old songs the same old way - that's why I love playing with me mates as we've achieved our own creative sound, playing, as you say, things other bands don't do - such as The Simpsons and Eleanor Rigby, along with originals but still do the recognizable trad tracks, again, in a way you may not have heard before. Cool

Trust me, I was not making fun of your band. I was poking fun at another poster that flipped out when someone offered a recent constructive critique of another band. When I say you guys were not as good as some of the other bands, few are in the same class as Slacktone & Madiera. Not everyone can be the Beatles or Eagles. That is not a put down or anything to be ashamed of. It was hot, you guys played your asses off, sounded good and I appreciate it. Excellent song selection. You guys made my Sunday very enjoyable. I hope to see you guys play again. Sorry to see the AK-47 misfire.

First wave, third wave, traditional, it's all good to me.
I enjoyed the creativity & bought a CD.

Hi HBkahuna
It was my AK47 that ran out of ammo. Actually it was my foot pedal that misfired. Like you said it was hot and sometimes electronics don't take too well to the heat.
I'm glad you enjoyed yourself. We all had a great time and Linda says we'll be back so that's cool. She says I owe her a rendition of Peter Gunn. Wait till she hears our version of "Get Smart" and the James Bond medley. Just as a side note this was the first time this line-up played together in public. Gary only had one rehearsal with the full band so we all feel he did great job learning our set list as quickly as he did.
Thanks for buying the CD

Here's a few shots of one of my Jazzmasters I used on Sunday. It's a Masterbuilt instrument by Gene Baker when he was at Fender.
