Surf Report! Epic Festiki looms on the horizon…August 14th

If you missed last year’s Surf Ohio Festiki, here’s your warning – big waves approaching Dayton on Saturday, August 14.

Epic conditions at Old River Park include seven live shows I can hardly wait for –
Llacuna & Silva with Leilani
Crazy Joe and the Mad River Outlaws
The Nick Kizirnis Band
Tyrd Fyrgysn & the MasterExploders
Vegas 66
The Madeira
And, as if that was not enough, the night rocks out with the legendary Space Cossacks, making the 2nd Annual Festiki a rare Midwest stop on their ten-year reunion tour!

Of course, all that live Hawaiian, surf rock and rockabilly action is only if we survive the fire dancers (I’m telling you, do NOT try this at home!). You know, Festiki’s not called “the Ultimate Staycation Alternative” for the fun of it. Well, actually, it is.

A big shout-out goes to our hep daddy DJ, Jet Sterling, and his posse coming back from the Surfabilly Freakout show. Between the waves of sets (or is that sets of waves?) Jet will keep us retro-jamming and giving the goods.

Surf Ohio sends our big “mahalo” to some awesome sponsors on board already, like AAA Travel, WTUE-FM, WONE-AM, Land Shark Lager and Monster Energy, and more coming soon. They are making it happen on August 14th and if you want to join them or be a vendor at Festiki, shoot me an email. I’ll get you the skinny.

The titans of tiki, my bros at the Fraternal Order of Moai, are back, too, and have conspired with Surf Ohio to bring you a website dedicated to all things Festiki 2010 – click on “Festiki” here or visit www.festiki.com to get hep, including photos and links to the bands, admission info, hotel links and map, and other things you will want to know before you load up the Woody for Dayton. I’ll post Festiki surf reports here as we know ‘em, so keep watching.
