The Insect Surfers! They were part of the SoCal Surf scene in the 80’s and 90’s (and perhaps still are), and their leader David Arnson came to a lot of the shows The Hillbilly Souls Surfers did when I was a member of that instrumental trio. One night the two bands shared the stage at a venue, and Dan Valentie, who had played bass in THSS off and on before and after Pete Curry left to join Los Straitjackets, was playing in The Insect Surfers. It was quite a scene, and David was kind of it’s Iggy Pop.
