Pay your respects to the “King of the Surf Guitar” himself, Dick Dale, by watching his still-prodigious shredding skills unfold live. His 1961 song “Let’s Go Trippin’” is widely considered the first-ever surf rock song— he pioneered the style by drawing on eastern musical scales (due to his Lebanese heritage) and experimenting with reverberation. Beach Boys, who? Make sure to plan ahead- the sooner you purchase tickets or make your dinner reservation, the better your seats will be. The venue is a bit far, but there’s a reason it is exactly a canyon away from Malibu. Catch some waves, drive the scenic route, and watch where it all started. Hang loose!
