Great stuff, the Dirty Heads are playing in my area this August at Vina Robles along with Pepper, a great venue, I might have to go now that I've heard them.
I already know that Pepper is really good, they used to tour with Slightly Stoopid, another awesome band.

It takes a quiver to do that.

Was in a car today without satellite radio. I don't usually search out new stuff and hear less and less as less and less kids are around the house. Heard these and liked. Did the sound hound thing. Some "local" station. Seems to be a few more stations on the dial over the last few years. If these were posted I missed them before.

Being a musician I tend to listen to music that is beyond my abilities. I was in a cover band for almost 18 years. Hated most of it, but we were a group like a bad marriage. 3 chords is fine to cover the bulk of rock, new wave, punk, reggae, and on occasion ...... country:( Drink some beers, set-up at Taka-O's Sushi Bar in San Clemente, and bash out 3 chord energy songs. What ever was current on the radio, we were trying to play it as close to the original as we were capable. When I was in college, I played in a jazz quartet. It was straight ahead jazz with some talented players. I play drums and percussion. We did some Latin jazz which is what most of my record and CD collect is. That was by far the most fun I ever had playing. I was never at the caliber of the jazz musicians I played with, but it nice to jam with people on another level. I miss those jazz gigs more than any of the hundreds of rock gigs I did over the years. I still like Oingo Boingo, Devo, and Rage, but some great straight ahead or Latin jazz is what I like to shape boards to.

This young chick is amazing..... if you're into jazz.

Thanks, TallDude.  Here's a bass player I guarantee you've listened to, even though you probably don't know it:

That was a good performance. I hadn't heard of them before. Good friends of mine had a rockabilly band in the early 80's called the 'Rockin Rebels'. They opened for the Stray Cats and Blasters a bunch of times. The bass player and I played in the college jazz band together. He's a professor of mathematics now. The drummer is a Fedex driver and rhythm guitar is a booking agent for blues and country music festivals.

One my favorite song writer / performers from back in the day, is Tom Wait. He wrote hit songs for a Rod Stewart, Bob Seger, and Bonnie Raitt to mention a few. Still with a straight ahead jazz feel.

And with a rockabilly feel.

Lately, Ive been into the So-Cal resurgence of SURF ROCK. Definitely worthy. Comes with a hint of garage/psych mixed in but surf none the less. Here are a few bands that are killing it right now...Allah-las, Mystic Braves, The Growlers. This music has actually led me to start playing guitar for the first time too so I'm grateful for it. Enjoy.

MA is Neil Young country? 
 -- burned out old liberal hippies, still raging against the Man   :D


And I don't know anybody who likes whiney Neil here in the commonwealth.


Neil Young? Now I know why I moved. At least Oregon is some people I never heard or. I KNOW Neil Young sucks.


WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!!?? PEOPLE HATIN ON NEIL?? I MEAN, MR. YOUNG. UNREAL.

I'm all for individual choice and personal flavors of music but ya'll are going overboard on this one.  Massachusetts LOVES Neil Young. 

I can't fathom how he would not be respected or even disliked. He is considered by most a rock/guitar god and the main spark of an entire music genre (grunge). Neil is also an unbelievable live performer even today and is a huge supporter of farming and people with disabilities. And lets not even talk about his work with CSN&Y.

To me he epitomizes what rock n roll is (and what it ain't) - dirty, true, loud story telling. The guy is a legend. Rock don't need more cowbell it needs more reverb! Neil delivers. 

You may have to turn in your masshole card if you don't dig on these  8)

FreeTo,
One of my long time neighbors, and legendary glasser Danny Brawner played drums in a 60's surf band called the 'Sandell's. A little throw back surf music. He still glasses in his son Damian Brawner's glassing shop. They still glass Velzy boards too. I hang out sometimes and watch Danny do color resin tell I can't take the fumes anymore. Thank god for epoxy! I can't imagine doing resin as long as Danny has.

Nice TallDude! Surf def deserves more respect as there is great musicianship in the genre. I do prefer mine with vocals but the riffs alone of many surf guitarists, including this one, are quite hypnotizing and satisfying.  Thanks for the post.
