I saw the title and thought “Ok, might as well start watching Winter Surf vids now”
(For those who aren’t aware of my quirks, I watch Winter Surf vids to motivate myself for the season when I go out to run in cold, rainy, grey, miserable weather with the thought that ‘these people are so badass in the water; I should aspire to be HALF as such, running around on land’)
Um, the ocean temp at Manhattan Beach is 67* today, probably about the same when this was shot
At the David Byrne show at The Met on Friday, they were in a forest, and you could see the fog rising and falling, as the sun came through the trees
D’Wife kept asking me “do I know this song?” Um, how does one answer that? ‘If you knew it, you wouldn’t be asking me’ But DB often rearranges things, so they don’t sound the same as you’re used to, so the question IS legit
ETA: there’s an N-Men doc on TUBI, if you have access
@sphere 's Pearl Jam dump reminded me of this; it’s a crappy VHS-copy upload, but the story is still there - however you feel about the two of them, individually or together
The Eddie opening ceremony is this Friday, waiting period runs through March.
The NS has been getting some decent swell for the past week or so, I’ve seen a couple clips of tourists getting into trouble at Shark’s Cove, and it seems like the locals are already getting frustrated with the whole scene this year..
Saw it at a local store on Thanksgiving weekend, I’d seen it online before, got it from Biblio for less than half of what the store was asking (I don’t mind supporting local, but within reason).
Only taken a quick browse through so far, some cool old pics of the NJ surfing scene over the years.
Sooooo. My new house is right on the water. There is a small boat ramp to get in the water on a footpath just behind the house. Waves aren’t great here in the protected waters of the gulf, but I wanna be able to get on the board straight from my front door and paddle out when I feel like it.
