SPOTLIGHT

ENDLESS SUMMER ROCK AND ROLL JAM

When surf music hit the airwaves in the 1960s, it clued the world --

or at least the states -- into the joyous experience of Southern

California beach life. Hear the bands that made it all happen with their

waah-waah wailing on the guitar this Saturday when Dick Dale, the

Chantays, the Bel Airs and others perform at the Endless Summer Rock and

Roll Jam.

Hosted by Premiere Entertainment, the concert will benefit the

Huntington Beach International Surfing Museum in its efforts to preserve

the history of this favored SoCal sport.

The event will include seven hours of music, vintage woody cars, the

museum’s mobile exhibit and concessions. The night will culminate with

the All-Star Jam, which willinclude notable surf musicians from bands

such as The Nocturnes, The Del Tones, The Vandells and others.
