Don The Beachcomber http://www.donthebeachcomber.com/directions.html
(used to be Kona) is a cool tiki bar.
its in Sunset Beach, about 7 miles North of the HB pier.
some of us went there last year after the HB pier show, on Sunday.
well, I figured its a great place to meet up at after the day,
and what better way to wind down from a weekend of High energy Electric Surf, than a Nice mellow Acoustic set from the Masters of the art form.
in a intimate setting like Don The Beachcomber tiki bar.
1 Zombie please. Wink

hope all of you can include this show in your weekend plans.

pheeeew.

The Friday July 31st night show will be in San Diego,
Secret Samurai, and some of the out of town bands coming for the event.
Sat. Aug 1st the sg101 event will be at The Starting Gate, in Los Alimitos, Ca.
its on the border of (Long Beach and OC) closest airports would be Long Beach or John Wayne(OC) but LAX is only 45 min. North of Long Beach airport.
Sun. show is at the Huntington Beach Pier(OC)

hope that helps.

hey Whorehay all surf fans are geeks.
some just more than others.

Sometimes I wish I hadn't quit my job working for a major airline so I could zip down there for the weekend. Then again, if I was working 70 hour work-weeks again, I'd never get the time off to come down there nor would I have the opportunity to learn to play guitar...or know what my kids look like.

Well there are always lottery tickets...ah yes lotteries - a tax on people who are bad at math!

Here is my suggestion for those coming in August planning on attending th SG101 show in Los Alamitos Ca & at The Huntington Beach Pier.

Stay here. If I recall correctly Mom Surfing stayed her last year.

Its an easy 20 minute drive to Los Alamitos. You can walk to the HB Pier show in 5 Min. Summer parking is a major issue in coastal HB in the summer. It is also a 5 min walk to many fine restaurants on Main Street. This is your best option. Of course there are lower priced places to stay inland but you are going to have to fight summer beach traffic then find a place to park.

For you high rollers, there is a new all suites hotel opening across from the HB Pier in the near future.

Her are some additional local hotels. http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotels-g32513-Huntington_Beach_California-Hotels.html

This is the absolute cheapest place in Downtown HB. Across the street from the beach, 7 minute walk to pier at $63 a night, its a dump but cheap. http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g32513-d77289-Reviews-Beach_Inn_Motel-Huntington_Beach_California.html

The above locations are about 20 minutes from Long Beach & Orange County Airports. About 45 minutes from LAX depending on the traffic. Long Beach (LGB)& OC (SNA) are very easy to fly in & out of. LAX is your typical large airport.

Those coming for the Friday show in San Diego will of course want to fly into San Diego or possibly OC. San Diego is about a 90 minute drive from OC Airport.

Carol, how did you like that place?

I stayed here after the Pier show last year for 2 nights. It was nice, and I ran up a small tab from their goodie/snack bar that they failed to charge me for. It was funny, I would take stuff out of the fridge, bring it up to the desk, say I wanted to charge it to my room, and the guy would just look at me and say "ok, gotcha" but never write anything down as he was busy doing other stuff.

Brian,

Thats a nice place you stayed at. My advice to people is if you are going to come all this way in the summer, stay at the beach.
