Hi!

Got a new band here in Cali! Korey Kingston is my new drummer. He has recorded and played with Tim Armstrong, the Aggrolites and is touring with Hepcat.
He has recruited the rest of the band, Dave-O on bass and Jeff Bennett on sax. We have been working on some new material and will be playing it at our next show.
We are playing at Slim Jim Phantom's place in West Hollywood, CA. Friday December 11th.

Ok, Thanks!

We've got some great shows coming up folks!  We'll be with Igor & Red Elvises on Nov 27th and 28th and with DICK DALE on Dec 19th.  Also scheduled are a Chili Cook-off, a radio show, and a live TV appearance!

From sundazed.com:

Beloved midwest garage-rock kings and Sundazed recording artists the Trashmen will perform their FIRST-EVER New York-area shows, on October 23 at Southpaw in Brooklyn and October 24 at Maxwell's in Hoboken.

The seminal foursome—original members Tony Andreason, Dal Winslow and Bob Reed, with Tony's brother Mark Andreason taking over for the late Steve Wahrer on drums—will deliver such immortal Trashmen classics as "A-Bone," "Tube City," "King Of The Surf," "My Woodie" and the bigger-than-life anthem "Surfin' Bird," recently proclaimed the Greatest Song of All Time by no less an authority than The Family Guy's Peter Griffin.

Hard as it may be to believe, these shows mark the first time that the Trashmen have played in the New York City area. According to Dal Winslow, "In the early '60s, we played a club in New Jersey and around the Finger Lakes region, but we never hit New York City. It's been a long tome coming, like 40 years, and we're really looking forward to it!"

As a bonus these shows coincide with the WFMU Record Fair at the Manhattan Pavillion, where the Sundazed booth will, as always, be supplying smashing sounds to satisfied shoppers!

Don't miss the opportunity to see the Trashmen live at these venues!:

Outewave will be playing at Don the Beachcomber's in Sunset Beach, CA Saturday Sept. 26th 9:00 p.m. til midnight in the Dagger Bar.  Come check out the new and improved line up with Mac on guitar, Allen moves from bass to guitar, Tony on drums and Jeff Isles on bass.  Very hot and rockin' surf music.

Don's is located at 16278 Pacific Coast Highway in Sunset Beach just north of Huntington Beach.

Hope to see you there!

A convention for Tiki lovers! Join Tiki Oasis as we take over an entire hotel for a 4-day weekend of wild and wooly fun in the sun!

Escape the stress of everyday life with a weekend getaway to Tiki Oasis. Within minutes you will be relaxing by a pool surrounded by tropical landscaping and watched over by a 10 foot tall guardian Tiki. You can order a tropical cocktail without leaving the comfort of your chaise lounge. Or take a stroll into the secluded Tiki atrium, sit by the Koi fish pond, and listen to the soft waterfall serenade. If its excitement you want, then check out live Tiki carvers and roam the bustling bazaar with over 60 vendors peddling wares from around the world. Take in the sounds of live disc jockeys and bands, watch a movie, or dance the Boogaloo at our all-night Beach Party!

He brings a real hard and tight bottom end to the band's sound along with helping Gary out on the occasional vocals. We're excited to come back to San Francisco again and hope some of you in the Bay Area can make it out!
