my first MUXTAPE + the best cover i've heard in years!

How can you not love Miley Cyrus???

I'll be honest. i Love Miley Cyrus! So cute, and so talented. She's is taking over! well i guess the whole Cyrus family is! they deserve it, as they are the nicest family i've met in the business. One time I gave Billy Ray Cyrus one of my Hell Ya! mixes when I met him a while back @ one of the first Metro Station shows - - and the next time we spoke - he told me which songs he liked best!!! WTF!?!?! BIlly Ray you rock!! That shit never happens!

SO thanks to Jax here is your new favorite Cover song. She posted it today on her ROCKINSIDER blog about THE MAE-SHI covering MILEY CYRUS 'See You Again'
It's soooooooo good. Damn the mae-shi are so genius. I can't stop listening to this.

get to know VENUS INFERS (especially if you like Razorlight as much as I do)

I have been so f-ing busy that I forgot to give a quick recap of the last 1029310374 hell ya nights - - - so before I forget AGAIN - I wanted to quickly post about Venus Infers.

I first heard about this band from LARRY LITTLE from his kick ass TANKFARM compilation. Right away I loved the track, and when I saw a photo of the band I instantly thought of KINGS OF LEON. (hot)
These guys are damn good. I mean really good. I couldn't take my eyes off the lead singer for a number of reasons: 1) he's really pretty 2) he's really tall and super thin (*i like my rockstars to dissapear when they turn sideways!) 3) he's got some serious pipes 4) he started and played the whole set SHIRTLESS! SEE PHOTO

(mind you this is at the ECHO, i'm sure most people in the audience were put off by this, but I applaud them for having the balls to do it. Take that hipsters. If you got it, flaunt it! If you don't, create it! haha

So for fans of Johnny Borrell (RAZORLIGHT) & Kings Of Leon, etc.... this may be your new favorite band!


VENUS INFERS 'London's Raining' youtube video

**Thanks to all the bands who played, because the whole HELL YA! lineup was awesome - BIRDS OF AVALON and CAVIL AT REST both SLAYED live. Will somebody please get CAVIL AT REST a great producer that can capture their live show?

Head over to ROCKINSIDER to read more about the show and download mp3's. JAXwrote a great recap of the show on her blog HERE and posted photos from the night on her Flickr page HERE.)

Happy B-day to JAX! Pizza Party TODAY @ Silverlake Lounge!

TIME TO PARTAYYYYYY!

Come celebrate the birth of Ashley Jex (aka JAX aka the ROCKINSIDER) who has been a friend of mine since she moved here from UTAH.

We both worked at KROQ together, both had a similar path actually . . . going from KROQ to Capitol Records and so forth.

We have been doing Hell Ya! Nights together from the beginning, which is now almost 2 1/2 yrs old!

we have both changed hairstyles to match our moods, both been hated on for being young & determined, both in the music biz for the right reasons: to promote good music.

now we both have our own indie labels, both still work at major record labels, and it seems our goals are in reach - - love you jax, thanks so much for all that you do. you are a true friend and a constant inspiration - so proud of you w/ JAXART. so excited with the things to come!!! HELL YA!

COME CELEBRATE!

JAX BDAY PIZZA PARTY! TODAY @ SILVERLAKE LOUNGE. STARTS NOW! (get there early!)

See you there!!!

Afterwards, I'l be heading to both Spaceland to see THE FEATURES, and ending up at the THE SMELL to see my fav. LA band THE MAE-SHI! This will be their last LA show before heading to SXSW to play 16 SHOWS! WTF!?!!?! 16???? That is just INSANITY. Looks like they might be 'the it band' of this years SXSW. (which i am NOT attending this year - first time actually!) I'm going to be here in LA - on a mini-vaca - getting organized, mani-pedi's, watching endless episodes of 30 rock and Arrested Developement etc...... I can't wait!!!

stay tuned for a recap of last nights HELL YA! @ the ROXY, and THURSDAY nights Girl School/HELL YA! @ the VIPER ROOM. I have photos coming soon! YAY
