Huntington Beach, Calif.―Surfing
Bands are part of the local HB scene. Check them out for FREE!!!
The Goofyfoots are one of the great surfing bands from California
that have appeared in concerts and the beach. At the event
shown, the Goofyfoots were greeted by Orange County
residents to an outdoor summer concert where they played
next to the Hunting Beach Surfing Museum.
In this video we listen to a drum set that really rocks. There are
many videos of the Goofyfoots on the Internet, but very
little information about the band and members, themselves.
Like many surfing bands, these guys are talented and what
they do, and many come simply to share the passion for this
type of music that's fun to perform, and bring a smile to
audiences who listen to the songs with a beat. These are
songs that will get you our of your seat to dance.
Goofyfoots in concert, Huntington Beach, CA
If you ever make it to Huntington
Beach for a
family vacation or a weekend getaway, drop by most Sundays during
the summer at 411 Olive in downtown Huntington Beach to watch the
surfing bands play.
Linda Miller lines up the talent and does an excellent job of
providing a strong schedule of spring, summer and fall concerts for
tourists and local HB residents to listen to. When you attend a concert,
you'll usually see Linda dance a set or two with her husband, John. Some
days people get up dance throughout the concerts and other days everyone
grabs a chair in the shade and just watches and listens. It really is
great fun to see the Goofyfoots perform, and they do so most every year.

Where to eat: When soaking up a
surfing museum concert in Huntington Beach, there are several casual
beach favorite restaurants that say "surfing." One is
Longboard Pub just around the corner from the museum. The
other is our downtown HB Italian fave,
Luggatti's. In all honesty, most restaurants are good and offer
everything from tacos to cobbs, Greek to Mexican. Hot dogs are the
cheapest meal you'll find, and steak or sushi will be the most
expensive. The highest cost restaurant for fine dining is the
Hyatt hotel's Californian. The cheapest is the Pacific Coast Hotdogs.
