So we are invading Santa Barbara with our first gig at Whiskey Richards. We are super thankful for this gig because we had some tough time recently and it was just a really dark time for us. Starting a band from scratch abroad where you dont know people and have no idea where to even start..is tough. And you know it is gonna be tough..and it just kicks your ass. huh! Only thing you can do is learn from every experience and make wiser decisions in the future.
We just composed a new song called "THE CLOWN" with Mario and it is KILLER! I know I probably say that about every single new song but it is different but still bionicore. It is just us, it just came out of the blue. I love it! The lyric for it is very special. I traded it for a crystal skull with a homeless guy called Richard who used to write poems and when I met him, he was spiritually transforming and I saw that as an amazing thing and I felt connected. He was full of stories, happy and sad. This song is totally special. I love to hear peoples stories and use real life moments. But it has to come to me by itself. We are already practicing it and will play at our next gig at Whiskey Richards on may 4th.
Time is going super fast for us and our drummer, "Shai" is leaving back to Slovakia at the end of may. We are sad but thats life he has to go back because of his visas. But while we are together we have to make the best out of it and rock out as much as it goes.He is kickin ass with his crazy fuckin drumming and so he gotta be back!
We have hope, and hope keeps us going. Hope that our music and energy will make people come back to see us and get hooked. As much as it is rough and discouraging you just can`t give up. We love what we do and we are here and ready to spread that love!
So we got this AWESOME last minute opportunity to play Pagan fest at the Key Club in West Hollywood, CA. We are stoked! Hope we have a good crowd and make some good contacts and grow fanbase. This is a great venue and we are offering a great discount for tickets only $15!!! All acess! $25 at the door.

Come out and support!
Hey everybody! So finally playing gigs! It is like a dream come true after almost 2 years being not able to do shows only recordings.It is so awesome to finally feel the energy and have fun on stage. It was a tough start, I`ve been fighting a sinus infection for almost 3 weeks and singing these gigs was quite challenging. Our first show at the Whiskey in LA was great! The club has such good sound and energy! It was surreal to stand on that stage. For a band coming from Eastern europe its quite exciting! The sad part of the night was that Mario had an accident and the van door shut on his index finger he plays solos with..FUCK!!! No ice, lets go for a beer..so typical...so I kept praying all week so Marios crazy purple finger heals till our rehearsal and shows...luckily he managed to play and so he is my guitar hero for still doing it and doing the best he could.Our Long Beach gigs were so much fun! We had a great 2 day trip, made new friends, fans, contacts...it was just a positive thing definitely. We did not get to semifinals of the battle but thats ok, we went for the exposure. We cant expect to win in a town where nobody nows us yet. Its all about attendance. It was a good place to play and young crowd and thats what we need.At the end we managed to come back with some pics to share and couple videos. We`ll add some more as soon as we got em.
For now enjoy our Dipiazzas performances:-)
