GTFO: Surf Kings of Hawaii…


The Plasmatics, Fuck that Booty. From the Joan Rivers Show, 1986.

Bumbershoot is over and Musicfest NW is in full swing. The sun’s come back to Seattle and The Surf Coasters are in town.  Which guarantees that the sweet, sweet smell of Yamaha guitars will blow through a stack of fenders tonight in Ballard. Got a date with your couch? Break it. Got a date with a stranger? Cancel it, you know it’s gonna be awful anyway. And honestly, you need to get out after the week you had. I know I do.

Friday, September 5th:


The Surf Coasters kicking it live. A little preview of tonight, in black and white.
