Received promo package from The Dive Bar Stalkers.  They are a professional grade Rockabilly band from Florida. I love the CD. 

I played the CD to an unsuspected audience.  Her immediate response was "Wow, I like this.  What kind of music is this?"  So, I explained about Rockabilly and how we don't hear any good Rockabilly anymore, EXCEPT, thanks for The Dive Bar Stalkers we can enjoy this feel-good Rockabilly. 

The Dive Bar Stalkers - Official MySpace

The Dive Bar Stalkers is a rare treat.  Actually, I don't know of any other Rockabilly bands out there (as cool as these guys).

Thank you Jeff.

I am happy to know that a lot of veteran underground bands are searchable online.  Some bands are completely untraceable, but some of them have adopted new technology & left their foot prints.  I crossed my fingers and searched "Spiders & Snakes" and I found the video of "Public Enemy Number One" This is my favorite Spiders and Snakes song.  You know, this song was written, partially, by the original member of Spiders & Snakes.

I remember that day vividly. It was around 2001 when I went to Key club.  It was a Glam night  (Revlon Red was in the lineup).  Tim, the drummer from Spiders and Snakes gave me the CD - "Public Enemy Number One".  We even took a picture together with my film camera. 

Tim was a drummer from Spiders & Snakes.  But at that time, he was helping out Sisters Grimm with drums.  I wonder how Sisters Grimm is doing.  I remember visiting their drummer's house in the Valley before she quit Sisters Grimm. 

Public Enemy Number One is a high quality rock song.  Good time. 

Anyway, Tim, if you see this, email me.  Let me know if you are still in Hollywood.

After re-launching HollywoodBands.com, I finally joined MySpace.com.  There was a small learning curve.  I was a little confused about how I navigate the website.

Then I quickly discovered that a lot of band members are still rocking in Hollywood after 7-10 years.  I thought all those guys would simply disappear after a few years.  But a lot of them are now becoming some kind of underground legend.  I was impressed.

Rebel Rebel, White Trash Debutantes, Spiders And Snakes, and all of them are still very much active.  Now I can watch their videos at YouTube.

As a web developer, I was too busy working on database & shopping carts.  I never paid attention to MySpace.  I had no idea how "Band Friendly" MySpace was.

Anyway, I found a bunch of band members at MySpace that I knew a long time ago.  I announced to them that HollywoodBands.com is back up.

About a dozen people already became my friends.  This is fun.

Internet is an amazing thing.  I never imagined I would live to see the day like this. Queeny Blast Pop was my favorite Hollywood underground band back in the 90's. 

Hello everyone, I am back. 

I bought the domain name 'HollywoodBand.com' 10 years ago.  Then I purchased 'HollywoodBands.com' 9 years ago.

I was never able to tidy up this website as I wanted... there was not enough resource on Internet technology at that time. 

Since than I moved away from Los Angeles County and became a wedding photographer in Ventura County.  I still check out the bands in Hollywood but not as much.

Oh, I earned BS degree in Computer Information System.

We seldom lose band members in Hollywood. 
I know a few of them myself.

Please take care.. party on, but please do not drink too much.
If you are over 40, please watch your health.

God bless EVERYONE.
