    Event Description Domenic Priore, Brian Chidester, and The Boardwalkers will appear at
    Stories books, cafe, goods (1716 Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles - near
    the corner of Echo Park Boulevard) on Saturday, February 21st from 6
    to 9 p.m. The event is to celebrate the release of the
    Chidester/Priore book “Pop Surf Culture: Music, Design, Film and
    Fashion from the Bohemian Surf Boom” (Santa Monica Press). The book
    traces surfing and Hawaiian music’s potent combo during early 20th
    Century Waikiki, directly to its landing on California shores, and
    their development into a true bohemian subculture by the late
    1950s/early 1960s. Focus on Tiki, Surf instrumentals, Surf movies,
    Surf duds in the pre-1970 environment of Southern California is also
    offset by a look into Waikiki’s Lounge scene of the ’60s, and later
    revivals of Surf music during the punk/alt rock days as it mixed with
    Burlesque, Tiki culture and other things you are most likely a part
    of. So come down and have a ball, its FREE with live Surf
    instrumental music by The Boardwalkers and pre-1970 surfing movies
    projected throughout Stories’ book store.
