Saw him play a festival: one of the loudest shows I've been at, and I've been to multiple Ministry shows.

Aw lame. I just heard an interview with Gary Hoey the other day and he talked about playing with Dick Dale...Gary was a big surf rock guy and of course Dick was THE surf rock guy. Great player, he’ll be missed.

That stinks but 81 is a good run

Played left-handed, too. And, unlike Hendrix, who restrung the guitar, Dale played full-on upside down, with lowest strings on the bottom.
