Hey Jacob -
Yeah I'm from the Reluctant Aquanauts.
Thanks for the compliments on our drummer Alex. I feel honored just
to play with the guy and it's too bad not many people know of him in
the surf genre, because if they did he would be considered one of the
top. Hopefully, we can keep him on board for awhile.
Set up a freewebs site for the time being it's fairly easy, you can
also put your sound files on it. www.freewebs.com
Like I said we are looking foward to hearing from another younger
surf band. You guys are lucky you've found a 2nd guitarist, it's
really tough finding 4 guys in their early 20s who are all into this
stuff. So best of luck to you guys!
BTW We did the black dress shirts w/ black skinny ties when we
started. Then I struck gold in form of vintage cardigan sweaters
haha.
