Thunderbird Club

If you like surf music, check out my friend John's band The Seatopians. If you knew what John used to do professionally (I'm not sure I'm at liberty to say, so I won't) the juxtaposition of what he's doing with the band would be shocking. Had no idea he played guitar, nor that he's as good as he is and playing surf rock. :)

Aw, give us a clue.:smug:
 
But first you go through miles of hills of Daley City congested houses, and from the Mission to San Bruno Mt is a 30 minute trip down 101...

If I am trying to get out of SF, I go south on 280 - 101 is always terrible traffic. Only reason for 101 is to get to the airport.

When I worked in Santa Clara (at Great America and 101) and went to the Friday night skate in SF, I would drive across Santa Clara to the 280 to get to the city. It was much faster.
 
If I were to be exposed to a surf band that hooks me in for good who would you recommend?. Who are the legends of surf?. Who are the staple of surf?.
Start w/ The Ventures, Dick Dale, the Surfaris and go from there. BTW,we lost Nokie Edwards in March 2018:(
 
Back at The Longhouse in Gilroy tonight....where Clampers meet Bikers! :laugh::laugh:...at least they pay well and the ribeyes are free.....

No Bird content in surf?, I really expect to find an NR in the genre somewhere, Im imagining a pelham blue one to surface eventually. Ok 1 more and I'll stop. One of my favorite songs since I was a little guy watching Jack Lord say "Book em Dano"!. This is a great performance.

There has to be a pelham blue NR in surf!.
