Welcome to SurfGuitar101.com!

Welcome to the new SurfGuitar101.com! This format was launched on February 25, 2006.

This site combines my love for all things computer geekery and my other passion: instrumental surf music. I hope this site is useful for both surf fans and musicians, as it offers the following:
  • Users can submit news, show announcements, show reports, reviews, etc. These stories can then be ranked and commented on by others. These stories are then archived on this site.
  • Web based forum area to discuss all things related to surf music.
  • A database of useful links.
  • Surf music FAQ's.
  • Photos of surf bands in action.
  • An event calendar so people can quickly see what shows are coming up.
Stay tuned and I hope you enjoy the ride.

Surf's up!

-BN
