the band that performed after OUTERWAVE was VenturesMania -- they did a brief set
I shot 2 videos of VenturesMania, and they are up and running on my YouTube page
here are the songs / direct links:
"GINZA LIGHTS"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJclS5lEobs
"PEDAL PUSHER"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gx9ldpJs8_s
VenturesMania are: Deke Dickerson, Garrett Immel (of the Ghastly Ones), Mel Bergman (of the Phantom Surfers), and Chris Sprague (Sprague Bros, Sugarballs & the 18-Wheelers)
great stuff!

such a sad day in the surf community.
Eddie will be missed.
for those not fortunate enough to see Eddie play recently(few years ago)
with the Eliminators. here is a link to a bunch of Videos.
http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Eddie+Bertrand+with+the+Eliminators&oq=Eddie+Bertrand+with+the+Eliminators&gs_l=youtube.12...5525.5525.0.7594.1.1.0.0.0.0.175.175.0j1.1.0...0.0...1ac.2.4UbX07UthZU
and here is a pic of Eddie Kicking ass, and wowing the crowd, just like he was still a teenager, taken at the 1st SG101 convention. It was truly an honor to have a legend playing at an event that I put on.
miss ya, and RIP Eddie.
