The Swingin' Surf Rock Shindig - Episode 17 "WITW 6: Rochester, NY"

It's week 6 of "Where in the World is The Swingin' Surf Rock Shindig", since the Wayout mobile is in the shop we stayed right here in "Rockin' Rochester U.S.A.". America's first boomtown might not be the biggest city in N.Y. state but it made a good stand in when thet were filming "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" back in 2013. With an average snofall of 89.3 inches, it's no wonder we were home to the first company to manufacture marshmallows (for all our hot chocolate) on a large scale. Although perhaps best known for company's like Eastman Kodak, Xerox, Bausch & Lomb & of course Gennesse Brewery, the numerous colleges and institutions of higher learning in the Greater Rochester Area have become the backbone of the region. Perhaps that's why the Rochester N.Y. music scene is alway's bursting at the seams with talent not the least of which are the players in our local surf, garage, punk and instro bands.
