There were a lot of great bands playin' Oasis this year. My favorite was Thee Swank Bastards. Those guys were great. Hula Hoop girl was a wonderful addition but the band would of still kicked ass without her. The reverb drenched Black Sabbath cover was over the top.

I agree. The Swank Bastards were great. And I throughly enjoyed the hula-hoop lady accompaniment. I have tail envy.

Most definitely! Those guys were awesome, I'm going to definitely check them out the next time I'm in Vegas. And the Sabbath surf tunes were over the top!
Oh, and I will never look at a hula hoop the same way again!

Can I post my pics of Thee Swank Bastards? The shots of Alice are definitely NSFW.

Good times, Billy! Yeah, those shots of Goldschlager and Jaeger, chased by Pusser's rum, pretty much did us in! Oh, and that bottle of Pyrat XO that Perry magically made appear as if from thin air.

Hula Hoop Girl seems a little over-dressed here. I guess this must have been the Saturday show....

I couldn't agree more. These guys were amazing! How can you go wrong playing Black Sabbath with a surf twang?
