10th anniversary of the Surf Guitar 101 Convention, August 4-6, one week before Tiki Oasis,in So Cal

I hope that some of you will make this very special show!

To call the line up "stacked" would be a disservice to the word stacked. This is awesome BTD, and I can't wait to see it live.*

Hi BTD,

Do you have the set times for the Saturday show? Val and I are really looking forward to it!

Thanks,

Kevin

I'll post it soon, but I challenge all to stay from noon to midnite.
All the bands are really that great.

Alpine Village has hosted some great musical acts back in the 1980's

The Surf Guitar 101 convention will continue the tradition but I doubt that the audience will be as destructive though :D .

Ha Ha! I was at that Minor Threat gig!
I can't stay all day but must make it to see the Mystery Men?. They completely blew my mind when I saw them at the HB pier several years back! Been waiting for them to come back to the West Coast!!

Listening to Preparation: Space by The Mystery Men in preparation for Saturday's show. If you're in SoCal and miss it, shame on you*.

Thanks BTD!!

Thank you Kevin!

Great, great show Jeff. We've been going for a few years and always have a great time. This year was stacked from top to bottom. Maybe we were exhausted on Sunday but it was well worth it. Tough to pick a singular highlight, but a few: the Dynotones crushing it after the Lively Ones reunion - JP and John Blair joining The Madeira for Tribal Fury (I'm not sure, that may have burned the stage down), and seeing the Huntington Cads perform again after so many years. Oh and lest I forget the Exotics - if there was any justice in this world they would be at Oasis this year playing their spy-inspired tunes.

Thank you Jeff and everyone who puts in the hard work to make this show happen every year.

A few photos to share; mostly I enjoyed the music. There's a couple of short video clips up on Flickr also.
