Tonight Is Your Night Bro.

Tonight I am calling out to all you heavy metal maniacs.  You warriors of Rock N Roll.  Tonight I am calling all you dirty leather clad disciples of mayhem.  You proud junkies of sleaze rock.  TONIGHT IS YOUR NIGHT BRO.

That's right welcome once again to HAIR IN THE AIR, The Official Blog of 3D In Your Face.  As the holidays draw upon us the first leg of our fall/winter comes to a climax.  We just finished up a three day long party for our lead singer, Hot Rod's birthday.  No sleep, long drives, and endless amounts of laughter followed us from Omaha to Sioux City and many places in between. 3D In Your Face has become a well oiled machine over the last three months, not only physical but musically and emotionally.  As we sat down to dinner Thursday night as a band, I looked around the table and was so thankful to be in the company of my best friends in the world.  I had a moment there at that table, right before Playboy started telling us about his night and getting picked up at the local adult book store.  This erupted into a three hour dinner conversation of dick and fart jokes sprinkled in with a little Mexican food.

So far this tour has been more successful than I could have imagined.  I'm not talking monetarily successful but successful in the fact that we have made so many new friends along the way.  Not just fans, but friends that I would let take my grandmother to the airport.  People who are proud to be life long sleazy rock n roll heavy metal freaks.  I always thought I was the only one.  Sitting around that dinner table with the entire band surrounding me, I couldn't help but think that these guys have become my family and I wouldn't trade it for anything .  But even bigger than that, my family has grown to encompass all the new friends I have met over the last three months.  I wish I could name them all of you right here on this blog but I will leave that for you to do in the "Comments" box.

From day one I always thought that 3D In Your Face had a very special relationship with their fans.  Today I don't even consider you our fans, you have become my allies, my family, and rock.  Everyday I am amazed by the kindness and passion you have shown to us.  We rolled into Sioux City last Saturday and there were already people waiting for us to arrive.  Some of you brought us food and can tabs.  Some of you traveled long distances to celebrate with us.  Our shows have become more than your average rock n roll shows.  It's almost as if every week we get to have a family reunion with our favorite cousins and wacky aunts and uncles.  We all come together to celebrate life and celebrate rock n roll.  From this point on my goal is to throw away the old stigmas of the band/fan relationship.  I want things to be different.  There are no more rockstar egos. We are all in this together.  The support that you give to us only fuels us to play harder, to practice longer, and to travel further.  Believe me when I say to you that heavy metal never died.  Sure there have been some ups and downs but it never went away.

Bands can come and go but the music that they make and the people that that music touches will last forever.  That is the beauty of this crazy carousel  we are all riding, it will always come around again.  These last few months building up to New Years have been by far the most eye opening months I have ever had playing in a band.  My mission is to reach ever damn one of you.  I want to shake your hand and have a long passionate discussion on KISS' first five records.

This Friday Dec. 21st we will be celebrating the end of the world or the Mayan calender, which ever you prefer at the 21st Saloon 96th and L st. Omaha, NE. As usual we will have a lot of surprises in store for you.  We have a load of people traveling from out of town and there is plenty of room at the Griswald Family table.  "Save me the neck, Clark".

See you all soon.
