S&P on WRATH OF ROCK TOUR, New Lineup New Music!!!
Posted on April 22, 2008 10:34 PM
|  Hello there!!!!
Long time no write I know!! Some of you may have thought I died again, lol but No it's not true. Though if we were playing with the Tarot she'd defiantly be giving me the DEATH card! In other words LOTS of changes deaths and rebirths have happened in the New Year both for me personally and within the band. Now it is time to rise from the ashes like a Phoenix and ROCK!!!
First lets recap a sec to thank and say goodbye to the people, places, and things we will miss. As some of you know the Ritz show April 12th was the last show of the lineup you are used to with S&P. It was a great show and a great time and we will defiantly miss you Rusty and Lon!!! Everyone put on a killer show, I wasn't sure; we had only rehearsed once in 3 months or more. We had even written a new song for the show, but since our set was cut a bit short we didn't get to perform it. Sorry those that were looking forward to it. I shoulda have know that after that many shows together though it would fall right back into place! Great job everyone! and ThanX to all of you who came out to welcome us back!!!
So I'm sure there will be questions.. "Why are we changing the line up?" well for Rusty though he loves his music and playing with the band he loves his kids more, and he needs to put them first. You have to admire that! I'm going to miss him, and he's welcome on stage with us anytime!
Plus the band is relocating to Nashville TN in May/June and he needs to stay here, which is the major reason Lon is leaving the band as well. He wants to stay in MI he has his family and his job of many years to think about as well.
Scotty and Trena hope to move their family down in June sometime, and Josh and I will be moving there in May and June.
"Why are we moving to Nashville" ... Well for one it's nicer weather, 2 well we auditioned many guitarists in the last few months looking to replace Rustys spot since he had expressed he was going to be done soon. We met alot of kewl people and some great players but nothing that really fit with us. So I thought Nashville would be a good place to look. 3 our label is based in TN, 4 it's easier to tour the country from a central location, 5 I found the guitarists and people I was looking for 6 they have clothes I like! 7 well..... That's personal but there isn't just one particular reason. There are many. We just think it's a good thing to do at this point with the band, but we will NOT forget the people in MI we'll be back to rock you when we come thru on tour!
I recently made a trip to Nashville to check it out for myself. I had an amazing time, seeing and hearing all the culture and different kinds of music and entertainment there was just blew me away. It didn't matter if it was Monday night or Saturday night somewhere is hoppin! Everything I set out to do on the trip happened with ease, and then some.
I met with Mike P formerly of Detroit's Zug Island, and also known for his production work with ICP artists and many others. We talked about collaborating and producing the next cd. We then met with Seth Thomas also from TN and we all clicked very well. We recorded one new song that the FEW people who have heard it have said "blown away", and not in the way that you might THINK! This song is not what they were quite expecting but so far every person has demanded to hear it again and a copy of it! lol Which sorry but it's NOT done yet so you'll have to wait a while! Keep watching the myspace page and you may get a preview soon!
Another new addition to the S&P family is my girl J-Bogg our new merch girl! She'll be on tour with us to help you with all your S&P needs! ; ) OK maybe not ALL your needs, but she'll get U fitted into the latest S&P gear, sights and sounds! She'll also probably give ya something to think about after you leave later! ;)
Seth, Mike P, and J-Bogg are all on our top friends on myspace so stop by and check them out! We will have many new pics and all that up after our tour in May with our buddies The Gods of Kansas and Confederacy of Horsepower from LA. SO even though were moving to Nashville we'll still be coming back thru some of our favorite places, and some new ones too! To give you some kick ass rock n' roll!
