Well, last Friday turned out to be my lucky day . . . I had a
company meeting in NYC, and managed to hang around long enough to
catch Unsteady Freddie's "Surf Rock Shindig" at The Cutting Room.
Featured bands were The Nebulas and The Surfalicious Dudes. Both of
these bands totally smoked!
Haven't heard too much of the Nebulas, lately - I don't think
they've played too many shows recently . . . I guess they have been
practicing and working on that next CD. I don't think my reaction
to their set was a result of my Nebulas withdrawl (since I haven't
seen them play in a while), but these guys kicked some major butt!
Simply amazing - they also played some new stuff which was awesome -
I was really blown away by those tunes!! Rumor has it that those
were the "middle weight" songs from the next release - if that's the
case, WATCH OUT!!!!!! The Nebulas sounded great - it was so good to
see those guys on stage again! I think they have a gig in Asbury
Park, NJ next weekend - if you're in the area - check it out!
I was pleasantly suprised by the Surfalicious Dudes - I've listened
to a few of the songs on their website, but was in no way prepared
for what I saw! Full-tilt, edgy surf! They have the Los
Straitjackets sound nailed - wow!!!!!! I was really impressed by
those guys - go see them!!
My hats off to Unsteady Freddie, who put this deal together - he's
doing a great job of promoting surf music here on the East Cost (and
beyond) - thanks Freddie!
I took a few work buddies to the show, and they were BLOWN AWAY by
the whole thing!!! I was pretty tired yesterday, but it was well
worth it - I'd write more, but I have to get up early tomorrow to go
back to NYC for work . . . this trip won't be as much fun as last
Friday's!
