YOUTUBE AND BEYOND
This weekend really blew my mind, with the fact that the LOADED video made NUMBER ONE music video on YouTube. It has, at this time, been viewed over 180,000 times. Thats insane! But I am not arguing......what it means is that people watch Rock videos. And for that I am truly greatful. You are the underdog in this business the moment you strap on a guitar instead of standing in front of a group of dancers and a DJ. So any and every victory (both small and large) for Rock N Roll is a very neccessary one. Crazy Bitch by Buck Cherry. Velvet Revolver's worldwide success. Everything from Van Halen and Led Zepp reforming down to the rock n roll bands playing shows up and down Sunset Strip every night of the week. It all keeps Rock alive and well. So the Loaded video now fits into that story, which puts a huge smile on my face - and that is all I need. You can all still help the cause by continuing to view the video this week - just click the picture above - and then rating the video at the end. The more views and the more ratings we get, the easier it is for us to move forward with plans. Spread the word, keep pushing for us, and thank you all. For now, I can tell you that if you have SIRIUS RADIO, you can tune in tomorrow night at 9.00pm on the PLAYBOY channel 198 and check out the interview and acoustic performance by Diablo. We will be hanging out and playing three songs acoustically so if you subscribe to Sirius, tune in tomorrow.
Peace

Very well said! I'm very happy for you and the success of the video.
As much as you should be milking all of this, are there any plans for a second single? There are certainly more "single worthy" song on the record!
Good luck with the rest of the week.

Billy... I was reading an article about Paulina Porizkova when I was running on a treadmill at the gym. You kinda remind me of her hubby Ric Ocasek from The Cars. Wonder what happened to them...
