Get ready for a little night music!
There are good ideas and then there are great ideas. A good idea is to make a movie following three young surfers on a roller coaster action tour of the globe’s most exotic and dangerous surfing spots. They travel to Madagascar, Mexico, Bali and Hawaii seeking the ultimate wave, a 40-foot force of nature that travels at speeds up to 35 miles per hour.
A great idea is to make a television show about rock stars who have a passion for surfing and how the ocean has influenced their lives and music.
Guess what.
Today is your lucky day for… A day after the new Pearl Jam album is revealed band members from Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, and Red Hot Chili Peppers announced that they are set to appear on a new television series next year.
‘Surfing Rocker,’ the new TV show is about rock stars who have a passion for surfing and how the ocean has influenced their lives and music.
The TV show will be feature Anthony Kiedis, Ben Harper, Billie Joe Armstrong, Kelly Slater, Taylor Hawkins, Kirk Hammett, Jack Johnson, Jim Lindberg, and Eddie Vedder. Surfing Rockers is set to debut on TV February 2, 2020 in Brazil.
And I seriously don’t know how the World Surf League’s President of Content, Media, Studios and Outback Steakhouse’s Bloomin’ Onion Erik “ELo” Logan let this concept slip through his fingers. It’s what we, in the biz, call “synergy.”
Speaking of, did you know Billie Joe Armstrong’s surf van is still for sale? If you act fast it can be your lucky day x 2.
Also, if you were tasked with making a television show about a subset of surfers which would you choose? Surfing Techies? Surfing Businessmen? Surfing Businesspeople? Surfing Chiropractors?
Other?

It was a good one
But couldn’t get an Oscar for my performance or fit it into the sentence without it sounding CHEEZ – IT …
Yep. It’s all advertising.
Always have a plan.
literally no one listens to those bands. i mean, literally no one.
With all that Wilde Stormy Weather they may be able to take a Picture of hurricane Dorian Gray …. ?
Surf fart
This show will revolve around waxing poetic more than actually waxing and riding surfboards.
You almost got it right ….
If you ride a Malibu , under the age of 65 , you’re a Kook , simple as that …. ? Chuckles ….
In the immortal words of Kenny Rogers
You’ve got to know when to hold ’em
Know when to fold ’em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run
You never count your money
When you’re sittin’ at the table
There’ll be time enough for countin’
When the dealin’s done……
In the immortal words of Kenny Everett
So this bus breaks down, and the driver gets out to try and fix it. The lady bus conductress gets out too, and says ‘D’you want a screwdriver?’ – and the driver replies ‘Leave it out, I’m late enough already…’

Sounds like half of desert point regulars
I will have to say, that with this dream crew of all stars, at least they were not duped. Some hunteresque wordsmiths like to keep it “real real”. The mouth of the umpqua is still firing with many takers. Thank you stars, for sending it in a different direction!!!!
You’re back!!!
How’s Kauai?
Put the boars in the compound yet?
How awful
I thought their main connection was the love of cocaine
I always surf better if I can work a good song into my head
I’m the opposite – I find myself surfing worse when some song gets stuck and won’t get out of my head.
It has to be good song
People surf and play music because they are selfish cunts.
Maybe add custom surfboard shaper/scammer? Roll up in a Sprinter conversion, cold knock on doors from Santa Barbara County south to San Diego, promise custom boards but WITH THE FOIL BRAH, do a whole schtick with measuring the dude or gal, write some meaningless shit, go in the van, power up a sander for 30 minutes, come out with a 1990 Ron Jon a model airplane glued to a metal pole underneath it, PROFIT, etc.
Now THAT I would watch.
Sounds like the confessions of a novitiate!
