What A Cool Agent...

I just booked Zee Avi (with Brushfire Records) for August 30, and her agent, Robin was one of the coolest agents I've ever dealt with - and that was over email. Not that there aren't cool agents, but in this world, I often times get looked at like a dousch bag venue owner or promoter, which I'm not. I do this for the love of music, and for the love of creating something really cool and unique in the town I grew up in. But to deal with agents like her, finally, a refreshing dive in clean water. check out Zee on Aug 30, she is the next artist to follow Jack, Costa, and the rest of the Brushfire crew. amazing voice.

DEALBREAKERS

So we were hanging out talking about the last post with some friends, and we realized everyone has DEALBREAKERS...things about the dating game that make a potential mate a not-potential mate immediately. Would love to hear if we're crazy, but some of my examples are : driving a yellow bug with a sunflower sticker on the back, painting portraits on long acrylic finger nails, etc. A friend of mine (lady) said...dealbreakers for guys....asking for money on first date, honking to pick you up instead of walking to the front door...and well, i'll let you guys fill some in...what are your dealbreakers? do you have certain dealbreakers inside of bars?

Girls at Bars


Are girls competitive at bars when it comes to guys? Are girls who are friends competitive with eachother? I saw some amazing back-and-forth this weekend at the Nikka Costa show, who by the way, killed it, with two girls fighting over one dude (and the guy wasnt even that cool of a guy). It was some ausumn people-watching. Another day in the bar life.

Would you watch our shows online?


Im thinking about posting our shows in high-def online for our Saint Rocke community to see. Do you think that they would be interesting, ie. should we develop this or do you think its not worth it?

By the way, thanks to Scott, PK and then boys for the show last night (UL). They f'ing rocked it; I have to say, thats the best show I've seen at Saint Rocke in awhile. Super cool dudes too. Which brings me to my other question...

on shows, are people interested in hanging out in the green room with bands? is that something that would interest a showgoer?

Hope everyone is well and rocking.
Ran the mudrun in camp pendleton today. pretty fun.

Filming for a Pilot for Reality this weekend

This weekend we're filming both Friday and Saturday at Saint Rocke and around Hermosa for a pilot reality series. Im a little hesitant to do a reality series on Saint Rocke, but the fact that we can spread what we're doing nationally, along with the fact that TV up until now has put the southern california beach lifestyle in a terrible light (who really lives like OC or Baywatch?) makes me want to show what beach living in the south bay is really about.

South Bay Live Music Forum


So since I started Saint Rocke a year ago, I've noticed that the live music scene has somewhat burgeoned, and that there actually is a scene. Not that there wasn't before, but I guess I'm just part of it now. But in this whole scene, there's no where to discuss bands, who is rocking, who is NOT rocking, and cool shit. So I created this blog. If you want to see a certain band, think a band that played sucked, think I should do something different on a certain night, or just want to tell me that you like Saint Rocke (or not), here it is. Open forum. Lets do this...
