Surf’s kinda up
Imagine the shock of seeing “the Tyde” on an Old Ironsides bill this weekend and thinking, ‘Why, I recall going to a Tyde record-release party back when they was mere whippersnappers, and getting into a Scotch-fueled argument with Eddie Money about the Giants’ pitching, which sucked at the time.’ Except that the Tyde isn’t the San Jose mook-rock band fronted by Eddie; instead, it’s a rather pleasant offshoot of Los Angeles country-rock group Beachwood Sparks, with a nice new album, Twice, on Rough Trade/Sanctuary. The show’s at 9 p.m. Friday, August 8; at Old Ironsides, 1901 10th Street; $8. Frank Jordan and Party of One are also on the bill.
