Ooh ooh ooh how I love Monday nights in Hollywood. Only the locals go out on the town. The streets are empty and there are no covers to get into any of the bars. Last night I went out to see my friends (and roommates!) band Rockett Queens at the House Of Blues on the Sunset Strip. I think I have…
Playing at the House of Blues was really cool ! The staff was awesome and we had our own backstage ( with our name on it yeah yeah ;) ). And having a backstage before a show it’s priceless !!! You have time to relax, drink some beers, take pictures, tell bad jokes … band stuff !
We went on stage at 10:15pm, the room was almost packed. That was awesome to be on that stage full of history, two weeks ago I saw Slash on that same stage ! Great sound, great crowd. People were clapping and yelling ( thanx to the dumbass who always wants to see me take my clothes off, but now I am used to it it’s part of the “fun” ). The set went sooooo fast ! We only played 30minutes but that went really fast ! It was amazing for us !
After we played Steel Panther went on stage, as usual they kicked ass. Satchel asked me to come for one song, he picked “sweet child of mine” and as you guess I am a big fan of Guns n Roses but i HATE this song I don’t know why … Anyway I did my stuff because that’s what I do but next time trust me I’ll chose the song !! Anyway that was really nice to share the stage with Steel Panther, they’re pretty bitchin’ and despite what they want you to believe they’re really nice :)
We’ll play again at the House of Blues with Steel Panther soon … Stay tuned baby and KEEP ON ROCKIN’ !

First show on the Sunset Strip : Show at the Rainbow.
Of course you know this name, of course you already heard about this place ! The Rainbow is one of the most famous restaurant / bar on the Sunset Strip. We had the chance to play here on January 23th upstairs. On monday night it’s open mic night. We played after everybody at 11pm, I was sure to play in front of two drunk people. But I was really surprise to see all those people came from downstairs after our first song ! And that was a bitchin’ show ! There were men wearing suit dancing crazy.
We hang out a lot at the Rainbow because we love the Rockers’ clichés ! So if you see us down there come and share a drink with us ! ;)
Last Night we played the Hemingway’s on Hollywood blvd. The stage was smaller than the first time and it was hard to move but whatever. We met cool people.
It’s hard to communicate between songs when you’re not a native speaker, I am tryin’, Greg helps me a lot because Greg likes talking ;) I am sure it’s hard for you too to understand me with my French accent. I promess I’ll try to get funnier and find better jokes …
Anyway, Thank you to all the people who are believing in us, in our music, who are digging our songs. If we can do it it’s all because of you …

Here’s the first photo of the band with Nick and Greg. We did this photoshoot on our rooftop ( yeah our rooftop is kinda cool ahah ) with a friend photographer Mathias Fau ( French are everywhere beware dude ). We tried to do everything we can to look good,Hope you’re gonna like it and if you don’t well pay us a make up artist next time ;)
We played at The Slidebar in Fullerton this Saturday it was our third show. It was pretty cool. The first one was at the Trip in Santa Monica it was a Sunday Night and seriously it must had been 7 people in the room. But Whatever it was a good practice for our first show together. Last Tuesday we played at the Hemingway’s on Hollywood blvd and this one was BADASS ! We were really surprised to see so many people and more stoked to hear that the people liked it !
Well it’s a long way to the top if you wanna rock n roll trust me fuckers we’re on our way !
