Feb. 2 is coming fast, and with it is the Semi Regional Finals for Bodog's Battle of the bands.

The Stout City Luchadores are going on as the Wildcard winner from the Austin competition. While it could spell all sorts of things for the band to keep winning and moving on... I will say that it was never about money, and it was never about fame or any of that stuff that stupid Nickelback song sings about.

It's always been about me and the other 4 ugly guys standing up and rocking out. Singing about fun stuff, and personal experiences. A teacher once told me I was an artist and I never understood them until I looked at music for what it was. Mine. Oh sure sometimes it gets interpreted the wrong way, and sometimes we are looked at as a "gimmick" but I got to tell you, I have never felt more free than when I am onstage with those guys.

So I have never been or played at the House Of Blues in Dallas. I honestly never thought that would be on the list of things to do... I am after all just a guy content with playing small bars and CWV, happy with the crowd of people who listen to what I have to say. Then I see a picture of HOB and am totally taken aback.

It's big. I rarely play in venues that size, and it is always a humbling experience.

Can't wait to show Dallas what we are made of. Win or lose, you will see a band possessed
