If I were King

Well, I noticed I haven't written a blog in bit, and it's definitely not from lack of things to write about. In the world of SSP there's always something to say!!

We had a killer show Saturday Night @ Dirty Dog, thanks to everyone that came out!! This weekend will prove to be one helluva weekend with back to back shows:



Then on Saturday Night SSP opens for Drowning Pool:





SSP loves both San Angelo and San Antonio...hell, we love everywhere we play. ALSO...I'm super pumped to announce our NON-SXSW show:




When I moved here, I had no idea about SXSW, and it took a while to wrap my head around it. I thought, "Man, this is a great idea!! A huge festival where ALL unsigned bands and gather and play in hopes of gaining the type of exposure one could only get from something of this magnitude..."

Then I actually learned about it LOL.

As with everything else in the world...SXSW has been polluted by $$...so I don't concern myself with SXSW, I'm concerned with SSPxSW :). We'll get all the spoils of SXSW with out the hindering of being an actual SXSW Showcase. I set the line-up, it's a free show and the goodies just keep coming in...it's only going to get better. So I do wanna thank SXSW for building the biggest festival in the world...right in my backyard :). And I won't even have to promote...

SSP played in San Antonio once, and the headlining band bailed at the last minute...the show was packed out, and SSP was moved into the headlining slot. I turned to Keith and said, "We're the last band you want to hand deliver your fans on a silver platter to..." Every show since then in San Antonio just keeps getting better. I view SXSW the same way...in the words of Bruce himself, "Bring your Daughter to the Slaughter..." SSP isn't racist...we'll take them all!!

So! That's the haps for now...currently I'm writing new material to throw into the SSP blender and see what comes out...I've been taking guitar lessons for over 5 months now...so let's see how the songs sound \m/

As always thank you all very much for your support and belief in Snake Skin Prison...
