********************************

The Go Going Gone Girls
Backed by an all-star four-piece lineup, the girls deliver a dexterous and distinctive blend of 60s go-go, soul, bubblegum, girl-group, and garage. Hear them sing, wail, scream, harmonize, plead, beg, and shout from atop their totemic pedestals. See them shimmy, shake, twist, dog, monkey, duck, bird, funky chicken, and pony like their ancestors of yore. Smell the musk generated by their fans as they wiggle, jerk, groove, watusi, peel, hully gully, hand jive, and slop to the ancient rhythms. Taste the sweat on your own lips as you are swept away by the sacred rituals of the mashed potato, the Madison, the hanky panky, the frug, the popcorn, and the bugaloo. Feel the band camelwalk, locomotion, skate, swim, stroll, and hitchhike their way into your heart.

Pineapple Princess
What do you get when you mix a hula dancer, a punk rocker, two feedback-laden electric ukuleles, lotsa beer, Jack Daniels and Jagermeister shots, and a sports-fanatic conga drummin madman? Pineapple Princess, of course.

The Aquamen
Surf-inotxica - A drunkenly raucous surf-revival group. "Now these are my kinda guys -- playing surf/garage rock (most tunes with a booze theme) with a Galaxie 500 on the front cover of their CD! ... These guys play aggressive surf/spy/garage rock with heavily reverbed lead guitar, pounding drums and occasional organ and theremin to thicken the sound a bit... influenced by everything from The Ventures to The Mummies." --The Continental http://www.myspace.com/theaquamen

The Coppertones
Instrumental surf rock with punk energy -- The Copper Tones have been keeping the spirit of instrumental surf rock alive in the San Francisco area since their debut in 2001. Throughout the years, The C-Tones have performed with such local acts as The Teenage Harlets, The Lava Rats, Thee Merry Widows & The Rock 'n' Roll Adventure Kids as well as with underground notables including The Woggles, Las Ultrasonicas and The Epoxies. Out of town appearances range from Santa Cruz to Seattle. Watch for them at a local dive near you soon!
