"Sweet Child of Mine" on Piano

Just wanted to showcase a musician named Vika that I watch alot on Youtube, because she does some killer rock n roll covers on her piano.  Check it out below, and check out her website at www.vkgoeswild.com

The Church from "November Rain".

In the next week I will be posting a new video of the church from the "November Rain" video.  Alot of Guns N Roses fans talk about the location of the church and its significance in the collection of killer Guns N Roses videos.   Very few people know what church it is and where to find it. I myself became very frustrated when trying to find out where it was.  I would search online for it, and nobody seemed to have any real answers.  And most people online seem to waste time arguing back and forth about the church in the desert that Slash does his guitar solo in front of. We all know that church is in New Mexico.  I'm talking about the one that Axl and Stephanie Seymour get married in.  After watching the video a thousand times, I managed to put the pieces together and figured out the location.  I will have a video tour of it up soon.  I posted a current picture above.

"Premise Punch Tag" website

A few weeks ago I got featured on comedian Joel Buxton's comedy website.  Joel runs a great website and has really good info for comedians of all levels.

Check it out here.

Convicts of Comedy Tour / Burbank & Phoenix

Our comedy tour had two more great shows this past week.  We had another sold out show in Burbank, at Flappers Comedy Club, then rolled into Glendale, AZ to do a show at "Chilly Bombers" on Bell Road.  Outside the club in AZ, we watched a girl with a bloody face do a "crunk dance" outside the club.  The blood was because another girl inside had smashed her in the face with a bottle and she wanted to prove to everyone that it "was no thang" and that she could keep dancing.  Police later escorted her to her car to make sure that nobody got shot.
