Hi again,
Lemme tell you something. I was hanging with Chris and the boys this weekend, rehearsing, producer meeting and a helluva lot of beers and it suddenly hit me like a ton of bricks…Chris is one crazy fucker! See, when we´re working this close together, I never have a chance to take a step back and see what´s really going on but with the help of alcohol I saw it clearly. I mean seriously, who the fuck would ever dare to organize a rock fest in Stockholm that puts focus on rock when it was at it´s best? And the way he does it! Anyone here gone to a festival that is as personal as this one? He takes it all very serious and makes sure that everybody feels at ease. Did you guys who went to any festivales this summer get any offers to meet your idols at well organized Meet & Greets? Sending out free stuff? Remember that Chris is just an average Joe doing what he can with the pay he gets every month…no big money in this part of the business….. You know, there´s a slight difference between Chris LeMon and the BIG promotors. =) They would never dare to do anything like this. David vs. Goliath! No, it´s more safe to book bands who will always sell out. Chickens!

Otherwise, life is good. I am done with the flights, Shuttle logistics, Rooming etc. Now, one could think that the work load would ease off but NO WAY! =)
New cool asignments and challenges. You know we´re only a couple of people working with this. I asked Chris if I could be off working at the VIP Cafeteria and the Meet & Greets when Badmouth plays in oktober with WASP, KIX, Steelheart etc…he said no! The reason being that he wants me back there all the time.
This means that I will not have a chance to enjoy the good life of being a “rock star”. Nosirebob! Mike´s gonna be back there serving Blackie food instead of somebody else doing it. =) Oh fuckin Well!

You who already have tickets, first of all, thank you for supporting Chris crazy idea. Secondly, don´t you have any more friends who wants to rock out with us? I mean every sold ticket this year will result in an even better Rock Out next year…if possible. So, if you are a huge supporter of this type of music, help Chris build a nice economic platform for next year. Tickets sales are great. But we are just worried that some rockers will miss out. FYI…This is the Shit!

By the way…Badmouth will play a lot of new songs during our set on the 16th of October. It´s actually the first gig of our European tour with Lynch Mob starting in November in Sofia, Bulgaria. I am pretty sure that we will not hit our hometown
in a while after that…this after looking at our schedule…it would be cool to meet you guys more than once. =)

Once again, thanks for supporting us and we are really looking forward rocking out with y´all in September.

Cheers n Beers,

Mike Hill
