There was a time when I would set up my high-8 camera on a tripod
and focus it on the stage so that you could see everything and just
let it run. No close ups or any camera movement at all, but I have
complete shows by tons of surf bands. Many are very early
performances by bands like Man or Astro Man, Los Straitjackets (2nd
show?), Laika &the Cosmonauts, Spies Who Surf, Insect Surfers,
Halibuts, Boardwalkers, Slacktone, Jackie & the Cedrics, Phantom
Surfers, Untamed Youth, Dick Dale... can't remember them all! I
REALLY need to get a DVD burner and an extra hard drive! ~Mike
