I am filled with new respect for you Mr. Spike. Not only do you drive a Mini (which shows you have good taste) your focus during this massive party was on maintaining your health so you could be at your best when performing your shows. That's some true professionalism right there!

Thank you. In my younger years, I've hurt some performances by putting the party first. Sometimes it takes some hard lessons to make you learn.
Dude, I love the vlog vids! It was such a fun weekend, I think you captured it perfectly. As a nervous Bell 🔔 Ringer, I approve! 😅😂❤

OMG…this was so good on many levels!! The behind the scenes stuff, the bands, the Hula Girls, Deke’s show…the bell ringing (wow, the editing!)…everything was great…more please 🙏 ❤
For a non-vlog channel - that was pretty great. It was like being there - but without the heat stroke or hangover 👍 Look forward to more.

Yeah, seriously. Mornings in Vegas are also usually still the night before.
Great video! I've never been to Viva, but it's definitely on the list. Pretty rad seeing my shop shirt in the crowd. Thanks Scott!! Adam Rains is the man. Great dude!
Since I hate traveling, I do enjoy vlogs. Please do more. Thank you.
Thanks for taking us along for the weekend. I really enjoyed watching your band perform towards the end of the video! More of these please.

Thank you Spike for sharing this experience of yours and the Hula Girls at VIVA LAS VEGAS ROCKABILLY WEEKENDER. It was a HOOT!! Aloha Dude.
Taboooooo!!!! Spike, as always, your videos are awesome and bring a smile to many of our faces! Thank you dude! Also, I’m on my 6th bottle of the Breezeway Blend, it’s SOOO good!
Golden tiki got me hooked. Love it
Didn’t think I could want to go to Viva anymore than I already did but somehow you did it. Honestly makes me less intimidated to go too. Thanks!

Been watching you for a couple of years and have been a fan of your photography for even longer, all the way up here in Alberta, Canada. Just picked up your Breezeway blend this weekend as well at a local store! Hey, is that the J Mascis signature Jazzmaster I spied? How do you like it?
@BreezewayCocktailHour
6 күн бұрын
I get people hassling me about playing a Squire on stage, but this is probably the best playing guitar that I owe (and I have a vintage Gretsch and a vintage Mosrite, an American Tele and a bunch of Danos). The pickups are super high output but the guitar doesn't feedback, the neck is really super comfortable, and I swapped out the bridge and tremolo for upgraded stuff. I looove this guitar.
Where's the link to the page with locations of the Breezeway Blend?
