Rocklin Pool Party!!

So, Jason, our bass player called us up Saturday morning, needing help with a pool party his Cover side project was unable to fulfill. So, like true brothers, and die hard rockers, we packed all our gear and PA and drove to Rocklin... Good lord, was it HOT... I felt as if my brain was hard boiled. But we sounded tight, everyone was thrilled we came out, and all went well. Next up, we will begin recording a three song, EP.... Our next tentative show will be November 07, at the Powerhouse Pub. It is a 98 rock Local Licks show... Look forward to seeing you all there!!! allen

Pistol Pete's

We had our share of gremlins last Friday night, but the Pistol Pete's set went well. We are up to an hour set, which is crushing musically, and challenging vocally. We shared the stage with Geranimo and Irrelevant, which gave us little space, as there was no room to backline off stage, but we made the best of it, stacking cabs, and cramming kits in corners! Allen had a great night vocally, but, i do not think we got any video, unfortunately!! Greg broke a string, but had one of the quickest and smoothest guitar swaps ever, considering his extra guitar was still in its case, due to lack of space... During our last two songs, Jason's bass rig stopped working!! we were bummed1 but we played through, and Jay killed the backing vocals on our closer tune, Fade To Grey. We got the gear back to SoS central to find it was his Ricky that was acting up, so, we still have a bass rig!! Some other things happened, but i will not discuss these things yet. i need to give the venue some time to make things right before i begin.. if they choose not to, then you will get a great blog!!! Thanks to Irrelevant, and Geranimo for inviting Skin of Saints out to showcase our music... Show number 4 done!! give us more!!!
