an
extremely devoted fan/fanatic of surf guitarist extraordinare Dick Dale. Dale inspired guitarists in many genres of rock. He is also sometimes referred to as the "Father of Heavy Metal".
there are Dead Heads (Grateful Dead freaks), Heap Heads (Uriah Heep devotees), Durannies (Duran Duran),
Missionaries (Mission UK), Halen Heads, Huey Heads (Huey Lewis and the News), Crue Heads, Husker Heads and more. Then there are
Dick Heads, and some of the T-shirts sold at one of his shows features the skull and crossed guitars - below this is the statement: "I'm a Dick Head". Honest!
Dale's army of
Dick Heads got many new recruits when "Miserlou" was featured on the "Pulp Fiction" soundtrack. Go to one of his shows while you still can.
After the show he'll autograph your tickets. Onstage he plays loud, offstage he's really mild and cool. A real
nice dude.
