Come on out Sunday, June 16 at 6PM for a very special night at the oldest Tiki Bar in LA, The Tonga Hut in North Hollywood!!!

Literally two days before departing for our very first European tour, Insect Surfers will perform the exact 2 Europe sets we'll be doing while away with the incredible Bernard Yin on guitar!!!

Also, this will be the very first opportunity to purchase the new CD Infra Green in the flesh!!!

Since we can't take everyone on tour with us, this will have to be the next closest thing! Please come by and enjoy the party as we prepare to invade Italy, Germany, Switzerland, France, Belgium, and the Netherlands!!!

Hope to see you there!

I've been listening to the advance copy of the new cd I got,
Over and over, it's amazing.
Can't wait for Sunday to get here.

Is in the insect surfers.
So for nothing else, come and support him,
And wish him well on his Europe Trip!

That was a freaking awesome show. The Insect Surfers sounded great and the crowd was feeling it. The 2nd set was especially amazing.

You guys are gonna kill it on the European tour. Have a great time! Save a little for a show when you get back to Southern California. :)

Here's a funny story...

Barni: "Who's that guy standing in front of the band, stiff as a board, while we try to dance around him ?".

JOHN-O: "That's Paul Johnson (of the Bel-Airs, aka 'Mr. Moto'). He invented this stuff. He can do whatever he wants." :)

And here's a photo clipped from Facebook showing the awesomeness of the show...

Jeff Utterback aka Don Brewski is hidden in the background. :(
