Surf's Up! (sent from the south east side of Michigan on a rather grey and bleak autumn day.)

If this floats your boat, try Shadowy Men on A Shadowy Planet. Some fine CanCon. |

Their music is even more fun in concert; they wear those masks on stage. I've seen them open for The Reverend Horton Heat, whose guitar playing was better live than on his albums.

Red Elvises ROCK. Saw them here at Jovita's years ago. That huge balalaika (sp?) was a hit. Loves me some Los Straitjackets. Surfs You Right! |

Surf rock and rockabilly, a couple of rock sounds you don't hear enough of these days. Sounds like a hell of a show! |

Did you ever think that maybe the Addams Family and Munsters soundtracks liberally drank from the well of the surf guitar? In other words, the surfing egg came first. |

Not a bad song, but it's those Mexican wrestling masks on the cover that do it for me. My sons and I picked up some really sweet masks like those on a trip to Mexico. They are our prized possession. I wrestle under the name "Picante Poblano"

Yes, but with the campiness of the B-52s' "Rock Lobster." |

Wow. I think I saw these guys in Allentown at the yearly music festival. I just thought they were some crazy crossbreed between a local garage band, and pro wrestlers.
