I love the Viper Room!

Friday, June 26th, 2009

A Passionate PerformanceIf you were one of the many people packed into the downstairs of the Viper Room, you witnessed what I like to call, “Music History.”  I was so happy to see a great turn out and hopefully my energy and appreciation came across from the tiny corner that Aaron and I crammed into for the performance.

Those who attended witnessed the improv (and tribute) songs “Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett at the Lake House” and “A Great White from the Land Down Under.”  Extremely silly, but fun songs guest performer Dale Spollett and I made up on the spot based on audience suggestions.  I also played many of the usual suspects – Robbie’s Song, Firefly, She Does Her Crying Alone.  You could have a heard a pin drop when I performed “Too Good For this World” (I added a portion of Eric Clapton’s “Tears in Heaven” to the ending) which finished to absolute cheers – definitely caught a few moist eyes in the crowd and I appreciate the support for my late daughter.

Sleeping after the ShowAfter the show, I was so wasted that I absolutely crashed – one of my friends took this hilarious picture.  Woke up this morning still wearing my boots and clothes.  Big thanks to everyone who attended and supported, Donovan Lyman and Hollow Body for booking the show, Dale Spollett for his comedy and voice, Kevin and Sal for getting me home safely, Aaron Chavez for his incredible percussion, Hep for flying in for the show from Salt Lake City, and the Viper Room for the hospitality and love!!  Seacrest out!

The House that Depp Built!

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

Kevin BurdickWith my performance schedule slowing while I write my 5th album, there won’t be very many opportunities to come see me perform this year - Thursday, June 25th in Hollywood is one of those rare exceptions.

The Viper Room, originally started by a group headlined by Johnny Depp, is an icon on the Sunset Strip.  Adding your name to the list of artists that have performed there is a right of passage for any musician.  Hope to see you there before 11 PM on June 25th when I take the stage and add my name to that list!!
