There were several other surf music Yahoo groups at the time, so we started our focus on the musician aspect of playing surf music (hence the \"guitar 101\"). After a short time we dropped that angle and fully embraced all aspects of surf music.</p>\r\n<p>After seeing The Surf Coasters (Japan) on their first US tour in the summer of 2004, we needed a place to host our many photos and videos. The domain name surfguitar101.com was registered, and a simple static website was created to host media files as a supplement to the Yahoo group.&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p>Cramped by the confines of the Yahoo Group, in February of 2006 we launched an interactive version of the website, complete with our now famous forums. This format was kept until February, 2011 when the website software was rewritten and a new look was designed.</p>\r\n<p>The SG101 community held its first annual convention weekend in 2008 in Southern California, a tradition that continues today. Ever year our members get together for a surf music packed weekend, and each year has been bigger and better than the last. In 2010, Germany's The Space Rangers and Italy's (via Antigua) Wadadli Riders were the first non-US bands to play at the convention. Fans of surf music get to see, hear, and mingle with musicians from the original 60's bands as well as the up and coming bands of today.</p>\r\n<p>Surf's Up!</p>",
