You've no doubt heard "that one song from the Pulp Fiction opening titles." That's "Misirlou" by Dick Dale, who's 79 and still the king of surf guitar. He managed to make a huge impression on goddamn near every guitarist from the '60s on. I may be purchasing some LPs to get inked.

Dick came back to town. Unfortunately it was the same night as Bryan Ferry. So I dropped an LP cover with my buddy who works there to get inked. No dice. But I got something perhaps better. Vintage poster of Dick Dale, martial arts guy, surfer, and guitarist, riding a bad-ass wave on his board. 27" square, at least 3 decades old, maybe as many as 5, signed and dedicated to the venue.

I was listening to the Beach Boys version before it was mainstream.
