What's up, Street Teamers?! Wanted to check in and give you all an update on the latest happenings of DRB! First off, the Midwest Invasion Tour in March went GREAT!! Thanks so much to all you who helped out with getting email addresses for our mailing list and making and handing out fliers and posters before the gigs and at the gigs!! You guys really helped us out A LOT!! There were way more people at the shows because of your hard work and we appreciate it. Gushing aside, the shows went very well and we had a blast finally bringing our music out to the people who appreciate it most in the Midwest. In fact, it went so well that we are currently in the process of booking a return trip in early June, so keep your eyes and ears open!! We'll also be posting some video footage of the tour soon. For now you can see several clips of different fan-filmed footage on YouTube, including our version of "Strutter"--a rare feat, as we don't usually play covers.
Since we returned home we went up and recorded a different version of our tune, "Dumb", with BW in Sacramento. It was a lotta fun and sounds killer. We'll let you know what happens with that! Also, we've been working on lots of new, heavier material (a la "The Key"--a new song we did every night on the Midwest tour) that we're very excited about. Think you'll be hearing a lot more "Badmotorfinger" in your DRB pretty soon.
And we're stoked to announce a CA mini-tour in May!! Thur, 5/13 in Modesto and Fri, 5/14 in Bakersfield we're supporting Pearl (featuring Scott Ian from Anthrax on guitar). Then Sat, 5/15 we're doing our own gig in Fresno, and Mon, 5/17 we're in SF supporting NASHVILLE PUSSY (everyone's favorite band name to say! It's always a thrill!!)!! We'll be debuting more new material at these shows. We won't be doing any Bay Area shows after the 5/17 SF gig till late summer, so get your fix now if you live in town!!
So blah, blah, blah, that's enough rambling from me!! Thanks again for all your support--you really help us keep going!! DR
