I was thinking last night

When I got the notion, To pack my bags, and head out for the ocean. ..Myrtle Beach Days, We'll have some fun in the waves. I don't care what the West Coast says. I love those Myrtle Beach Days.

I wanna Sit there in the sand, and watch those Golden Tans go walking by.

Yes, I'm goin. And on a recent thread there was some question why so many folks like Myrtle Beach so much. Truth is. Even though it has changed a lot, and not so much for the better. It reminds many of us what a trip to the beach is all about. Walking on the beach, Shaggin, on the beach, and in days gone by. The Pavillion, and every little dance joint behind every pier at Windy Hill, Ocean Drive, and Cherry Grove. The Beach Music that was born on the Carolina Coast, and is unique to the area. Chasing girls, and having summertime romances. And Yes, There really was an ....."Under the Boardwalk, out of the sun, under the board walk, we'll be havin some fun, Under the Boardwalk, BoardWalk." And that is what we remember when we stand on the beach and hear "60 Minute Man" and "Summer time is Callin Me". It's where most of us went for our Graduation celebration. It's almost like home.

So If you are wondering why. Google "Myrtle Beach Days", and click on the first video. It answers a lot of why.

  • Just the other day I put "Sixty Minute Man", "What Kind of Fool", and "Be Young Be Foolish, Be Happy" on my iPod. My youth was spent at Folly and Edisto, we seldom went to Myrtle beach. All the beach bands came to Folly Beach. The Tams, The Drifters, Men of Distinction, Swingin' Medallions, etc. I even got to see Fats Domino and Jerry Lee Lewis there. My buddy's dad said it sounded like Jerry Lee was playing piano with a yard rake. Guess he wasn't as impressed as we were!
  • Well, this West Coasterner thinks it looks like a lot of fun. Not enough places like that out here!
