The new band, Circus Diablo made their debut Sunday night at Canes in Mission Beach, Ca. Circus Diablo features Billy Morrison: Vocals. Billy Duffy (The Cult): Lead Guitar. Ricky Warwick: Rhythm Guitar. Brett Scallions: Bass Guitar. Jeremy Colson: Drums. For those of you that didn't come, you missed a kick ass rock show. For the 75 or so that did... we were treated to a very intimate show! So intimate that before and after their set, you could walk up to any of the band members and get an autograph or just chat. They all were very cool!

The treat for me was chatting with Billy Duffy again. I meet him for the first time backstage at The Cult concert in Vegas this year and it was awesome. He is one of my guitar influences and it was great to find out what a nice guy he is.

Circus Diablo are only playing a few more shows before they take a break until next year. I suggest checking them out before they do. Go to their web site for the very few upcoming shows!

The American Association of Blood Banks just awarded me a 3 Gallon Donor certificate! I started giving blood a long time ago because a friend of mine got a very rare kind of cancer at the age of 16. So I donate to the American Cancer Society... my way of doing something. While her mother was taking care of her, she came down with cancer and died shortly after that. Pretty sad.

Anyway, I encourage everyone to donate to your local blood bank every eight weeks! If you live in San Diego, visit the San Diego Blood Bank.
