When you think of the U.S. Open of Surfing, you think about people on their boards gracing the Pacific. Though the event usually features free live music, there may not be another free concert in the area that can compare to this year's event. Presented by Converse, Hurley and Nike, the show will take place from August 1-3, during the middle of the week-long event in Huntington Beach with TV On the Radio, Grouplove and Best Coast set to headline the music stage.
