Our shows in LA
LA was frigging AWESOME!!! In fact, I'm renaming the city "Los Awesomes". True story.
We had a blast! While we were in town we stayed with Joey Buttafuco's son, Pauly. Dude is out of his mind and HILARIOUS!!! Seriously. He rules. Also, the whole time we were out there we were partying with Riggs from Hatebreed and Madball, and DJ SPAE from SKARHEAD. Coolest group of guys I've met in a looong time.
Our first of 3 shows was actually in Glendale, Ca. at a place called "THE SCENE". Top notch sound system, and the dressing room for bands is waaaaay better than most clubs. The owners are cool as hell. Right before we started the show, they stopped everything and lined the bar with shot glasses and gave EVERYONE in the building a FREE drink on the house. A classy move by classy dudes. There's a guy named Dee who is part owner and books the shows. You won't find an easier guy to work with. Cool as hell. The bartender (who's name I forget 'cause I'm an asshole) was also super cool.
All in all, if you live in the area, or are planning a trip to LA, check out THE SCENE in Glendale.
Our 2nd show was in downtown LA at a place called The Redwood. We stopped in the day before our show, and the owner (Christian) bought us lunch... and it was DAMN good. Biggest damn burger I've ever seen, and after every bite all I could think of was Samuel L Jackson in Pulp Fiction saying, "mmmm this IS a tastey burger". The guy who booked us (Ricky Vodka) was also a class act. All around good dude. After we did our last song, he walked on stage, shook our hands, said he loved the show and paid us right then and there. It's NEVER that easy to get paid in this line of work... EVER!!!
Oh, did I mention it's a FUCKING PIRATE BAR?!?!?!?!
No shit. The whole place is decked out in pirate garb. AWESOME!!!!
Last show was right in the thick of it all. A place called TINY'S K.O. It's on Hollywood Blvd. between Vine and some street that I won't even attempt to try to spell. There we were, on the famous corner of Hollywood and Vine, hanging out with Pauly Buttafuco, Riggs from Hatebreed and Madball, and DJ SPAE from SKARHEAD getting ready to do a show. Also in the crowd was ultra sexy porn star Harmony X and a few other girls from a site that I won't mention here on SG, and the producer of HBO's REAL SEX, CAT HOUSE, and the AVN Awards. Oh, and a guy who works for Lion's Gate Films that couldn't wait to see us.
How's that for a week???
