Me cheesing with Down With Webster rapper Cameron Hunter. |
Down With Webster opened for 3Oh!3 on their "Streets of Gold" tour on their stop at Minglewood Hall in Memphis. I was introduced to the music for the other opening acts The Secret Handshake and Hello Goodbye. Both those bands are very talented and are worth a listen. If you haven't heard DWW's music, check out their website www.downwithwebster.com and get ready to become a big fan!
A quick pic with Diggy the DJ. |
I heard several of my favorite songs like "Time To Win", "Your Man", and "Back of My Hand". They also played one of their new songs from the upcoming "Time To Win: Vol II" album, and y'all (had to use my Southern slang just for Pat) will be sooooo excited by what is to come from this Toronto based powerhouse.
Chillin' with DWW singer/guitarist Pat Gillett. |
My only wish was that DWW could have played longer. I hope to one day get to go to one of their headlining shows, which are said to be epic. I really look forward to seeing their popularity continue to grow and become huge here in the U.S. And even though I don't get the station, I heard that their video for "Whoa is Me" is number 1 on the Much Music Video Countdown tonight. With enough fan support in the States, I think it could easily be in rotation on MTV. The current surge of Canadian artists hitting it big here (Drake, Justin Bieber, etc) is proof that with enough backing, they could be big.
Even though I have probably said thanks a hundred times, I want to thank the guys from DWW for being so nice to me and for signing my daughter's jacket (Pic left) and to Pat Gillett for saying hi to her on the phone. She talked about it for the longest when I got home :). Big thanks to Cameron Hunter, Tyler Armes, and KapOneOh for following me on Twitter. You guys WIN! :)
