A message from Mickey Avalon
Here's an email we received from Mickey Avalon who is a recording artist sponsored by RVCA and it just shows a man who seem to be enjoying what he's doing but also gives an insight to life on the road, check it.
Its been a wild year, check it.
By now you probably know that my record is out and that me and my crew, the Dyslexic Speedreaders (feat.my best friends Andre Legacy & Dirt Nasty), have been touring non-stop. If we haven't been to your town yet, check out our schedule because we will probably be there by the end of the year. So girls go get your hair did and boys, we like downers not Charlie.
Besides being home-sick (and dope-sick), the road aint no joke. From playing (and beefing with 60,000 Dutch folk with bad aim) in Europe opening for the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, to rocking Lollapalooza, to sharing the stage with freaky dudes like Niggarochii The Hillbilly in Cleveland, Ohio...its all regalia.
I've been fortunate enough to meet, record and play with some artists I really dig and respect: The Happy Mondays (who's record just came out and I am on), Slick Rick, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Hank III, Raekwon, Perry Farrell, Lil Jon and others. It is a kids dream to be able to meet some of his heroes, let alone party, play and record with them.
I got the best and craziest fans, and it's because of you that I have been able to release a record, travel the world and most importantly, pay my child support.
THANK YOU!
Even though I am now on a major label, I have complete artistic control over everything I do, so kids don't fret. I am also co-owner of the independent record label, Shoot To Kill; home of myself, Andre Legacy, Dirt Nasty, Dyslexic Speedreaders, and Beardo.
Legacy's record has been out for a few months now and Dirt Nasty's record came out last week. They're both palatial and I got a cut on each one. Make sure to cop them if you can, but if you can't; either burn or boost them.
The Dyslexic and the STK mix-tape will be out sometime next year, and hopefully there will be a Beardo EP hitting stores on September 11th.
As for myself, I'm laughing. My daughter came to visit me in Nebraska this week. When I get home from tour in September, we're gonna make a real video for Mr. Right, being that we failed miserably on the Jane Fonda video. I go back out for October, and that's it for the year. I'll be finishing my record at home, and it should be out by March. Maybe an EP in the meantime, but who knows.
Until then, don't die.
