Sweetness

A couple of days ago, I was cruising along Melrose Ave in Hollywood on my way to get a much needed haircut and decided to make a stop in the Johnny Cupcakes store to see what was new.

To my surprise, there was the man himself, Mr. Johnny Cupcakes. We talked about an old venue in my hometown of Salinas/ Prunedale called Jim Dandys. It was a small small....small venue right off the 101 HWY that a lot of bands used to stop at on their way to/ from San Francisco. One of these bands just happened to be Johnny's old band On Broken Wings. A ton of good memories there at Jim Dandys with Evergreen Terrace, Bleeding Through, Throwdown, Norma Jean, Me Without You, Eighteen Visions, and tons more when they were just starting up. But alas it is now a used car lot....hmm as most places seem to be these days.

Anywho, it was awesome to finally meet Johnny, and thanx so much for making me a guest on your blog. If anyone is interested (and you should be) head over to Johnny Cupcakes to check out the blog and his "sweet" online store!

ONE final note, we here at Seven Grand have two NEW shirts dropping this Monday September 1st! They are awesome and come with a FREE Compilation CD of all our good friend's bands. Click HERE to order yours today!
