MATT THE RAT!! Aka Matt the miracle! I’m so happy this badass made it out to our show tonight! He is in amazing shape having just been in coma and recovering from a hit and run while he was on his motorcycle! Look him up people! #MatttheRat (at Frank’s Power Plant)

Can’t wait to play back in Santa Ana! Save the date July 5th and come buy a copy of our new CD! I’m also excited to play bass with Deluxe Brothers again and see the RipKatz!www.checkopresentsevents #popepaulandtheillegals #thedeluxebrothers #theripkatz #originalmikes #checkopresentsevents #rockabilly #dialbacksound #blastcult #psychobilly #swing #rhythmandblues #originalmusic #dtsa #santaanarootsmusic #santaana #ogmikes #hotspot (at Original Mike’s)

When you have no idea one of your favorite bands is playin in the same town as you but thanks to the grace of instagram you see that Chris Rhodes is driving over the Brooklyn Bridge with Jesse Dayton about to play a mile away from us! Got to catch all their set and Rhodes came down to Max Fish and sat in with us! Thanks for the hook up Chris and safe travels on the rest of your tour! PS I was already wearing the shirt before I knew they were in NYC… but I probably would’ve changed into it anyway if I wasn’t already sportin’ it! #tourlife #touringband #jessedayton #chrisrhodes #nyc #popepaulandtheillegals #blastcult # (at New York, New York)

Alright rest of the tour, you have to live up to Rock Hill, NC now! What a BLAST it was to play Concerts at the Courtroom! The crowd was electric for every one of the awesome bands we shared the bill with! My mind is still blown… and to think people told us SC wasn’t cool! We can’t wait to be back! #popepaulandtheillegals #rockhillsc #concertsatthecourtroom #dialbacksound #blastcult #rockabilly #psychobilly #swing #bandontour #tourlife (at Concerts at the Courtroom)

It was way cool to have my pal Tom sit in with us in Norman! Make sure you check out The Deluxe Brother and Westcoast Ramble! Also thank you Tom for letting me kidnap your Nocturne Nail Head… #thedeluxebrothers #westcoastramble #popepaulandtheillegals #blastcult #thenocturnebrain #dialbacksound (at Red Brick Bar)
