Another Shot at Rock and Roll


I need to stop hanging out with these guys. They're KILLING ME!
I went to a show at "Richards on Richards" on Sunday night. The line-up?
Washdown, Ikara Colt, The D4, Sahara Hotnights.

I missed Washdown and Ikara Colt because I got there at 2130H, show started a little earlier.
The D4 played an amazing rampage despite some technical issues with Jimmy's Amp. It made for
an interesting and intimate performance when Jimmy came down off-stage to mosh with the crowd-"mic in hand". Scared the hell out of the bouncers...they didn't know what to do man.
Great tracks (as usual guys). Other epic events. Dion! We have to teach you how to smash a beer bottle. His attempt failed since the bottle only bounced off the stage spilling beer everywhere. I think they managed to piss off everyone except the crowd. The vocal, drum-smashing, guitar-hammering rock-and-roll session came to a perfect apex when Beaver, the D4's drummer smashed his sticks through his snare and tom. Job well done gents!

Sahara Hotnights were....well HOT. In many aspects of the word. Their music was tight, as were their butts. Inappropriate comment?: yes, but very true. Very HOT. I know, I know....International Rock stars women (Swedish none the less) all with boyfriends. Honestly though. These girls kicked some serious ass. A good show to watch.

The guys in The D4 will be playing on David Letterman on Tuesday (yes tomorrow, night). If you'd like to catch them doing one of their hit singles, please tune in. The CD is also released the same day.

A note to the guys in The D4:

Jimmy: Thanks for being such a cool guy and lending me a few pints.
Beaver: You are one cool mo-fo.
Dion: Thanks for the use of the floor and the shower. And for putting me on the guest-list.
Vaughn: Keep on truck'n dude.

Good luck on the rest of the tour and I hope you guys are enjoying your "rock-and-roll".

ttyl,
