What's new on this web page?
If you see the date changing on this page, without an announcement in this section, it is probably something like fixing minor coding problems, spelling errors, minor layout changes, new page on this site (so I changed bottom index), or new live show listins ... Any major changes to this page, will be announced here.
INTRO:
[Top (page index)] [Up] [Down] [Bottom (site index)]
June 19, 2008 I just realized that since I have been trying to keep track of shows that I plan onattending, I might as well update this page. Therefore, I will be listing all the Southern California surf / instro shows that I am aware of, and that I might possibly attend.
I also get hired to tape non-surf bands. I have not decided on a final format for listings of these other performances that are not surf related. But I will probably be making some kind of notation here.
If your band has an upcoming show and wants a free listing on this site, contact me.
