Hoobastank

 Guitar Center Sessions. I loved that program. I caught many, many artists, or bands that were on that show. I went to Austin, Tx for a Nine Inch Nails concert with Soundgarden (Chris Cornell). The whole reason why I went to the concert was because of Soundgarden. What a concert. It just so happened the next day, also in Austin, I saw a concert with a band I had just seen on Guitar Center Sessions, called Wild Feathers with Jamestown Revival. What a weekend! Another band I saw on Guitar Center Sessions were you guys, Hoobastank. I was introduced to your song, “This is gonna hurt”. What a jam. People are shocked, and expect to hear, “The Reason”, when I tell them I’m going to play a song by Hoobastank. Ironically, we had you in concert with THE BIG NIGHT OUT tour, in July 2013, at the Pharr Events Center. We were partners with Lane Arnold, Din Productions. Just like hoping, the song, “This is Gonna to Hurt”, was on your setlist. Right off the bat. The very first song. Awesome! I wanted you to have a printed copy of a book, or memoir that I wrote. It chronicles my growing up, then working in the concert business. Keep rocking on!!
