Tempe

I am a big fan of Phoenix and Tempe. This time of year the dry heat isn’t yet stifling, and with a nice breeze and the mountains in the foreground the vibe is just about perfect. Phoenix is also great for us because we have a great place to stay with my family friends Gary and Angie who are just awesomle and have an amazing house.

The show itself was in Tempe at a place called Long Wong’s. It’s a cool venue and we got the show through our friends Darkness Dear Boy who also played a helluva set before us. There was also another cool local band that played with us called What’s Left who had a cool sound with a guitar and violin dynamic. Our set was killer and we definitely won over some new fans. Our bartender was f’n awesome too. His name was Tony and he’s actually the manager for a pretty kick-ass band named Stuff Laura Says. Tony took really good care of us.

Overall I enjoyed playing Tempe a ton and I can’t wait to come back and rock it next time!

Arizona is hot even in the winter!

The past couple days in the Phoenix area have been awesome!  We first arrived and played a bad ass show at The Copperstate Tavern.  Then we spent the afternoon the next day in Tempe on the “strip” near the Arizona State campus.   Mill Street is the “6^th street” of Tempe so it just made sense for us to hang out there and do some band promoting.  We even took some videos of our promotional abilities.  Check these out!  Promoting We met some great people and spread the word about the greatest funk band in the world Achachay!.  We ended our time in Arizona with a killer show at The Sail Inn.  I have to say that I love Arizona! ~ Hooch
