The Exotic Blog of Kahuna Kawentzmann

I’m going to play on September 11th with Los Apollos, supported by Berlin Beat band The Goovy Cellar. Afterwards I’m going to spin some records, until the sun comes ups again (hopefully).

I only heard good things about this years Surfguitar 101 convention out in California.

Here is the Surfguitar 101 YouTube playlist of the event.

This time german band The Space Rangers made an appearance there as a stop on their California tour. The band hails from Ulm and on guitar is Muck who played rhythm guitar on one tour with my old band The Looney Tunes. On that tour I borrowed him my Musima Eterna DeLuxe as he only owned a Steinberger headless and a jazz-box. It’s great to see him finally sporting a Jaguar. I knew the Surf-bug bit him when he started doubling my lead on Miserlou during one of our shows, and checking out the playlist from the convention I reckon his new band plays old showstoppers from the Looney Tunes setlist The Swingin’ Creeper (as it is tradtionally called in Germany, elsewhere known as Nightstick by The Ventures) and Stampede. Talk about keeping the torch on fire.

I must say that the actual print is by far not as blurred as this mock-up from the Cafépress site. Here’s a crop from the source image:
