Wow - what a show! Dick Dale may be 67 years old, but the guy simply shreds!! Playing guitar, trumpet, drums - you name it, he's the consummate performer. Even the part where he brought his 12 year-old son out to play guitar (which could have been really cheesy) was great because - fortunately - his son can really play as well! Sure, he played "Miserlou" a couple of times, but when you've had a 'signature' song that every surf band worth their chops has had in their repetoire for more than 40 years, you'd play it up too! Thankfully, the concert was outside instead of crammed into the bar, 'cause there's no way all those people would have fit... Incredible showman, incredible show - can't wait to see him again!

Oh yeah, and there were some horse races before hand. I didn't bet, but Johnnie V won on something...
