Dick Dale is the father of heavy metal guitar and surf music. He is also one of the greatest showman ever. Leo Fender named the Showman Amplifier after seeing Dick perform. He was responsible for a lot of innovations that Fender made, because of his unique needs. Dick played so loud that he would cause speakers to catch on fire.

Dick was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum in 2008 and he stole the show that night.
