I just bought tickets to the Satellite Party show @ Irving Plaza, but mostly because I didn't want to miss Perry playing such a small venue. Does anyone know anything about them? Are they any good?

    As did their drummer. Doesn't say much for a band that just released their first album about 2 months ago when half their members have already left (I'm not counting his wife, from what I've heard she doesn't do much musically speaking).

    From their blog on MySpace yesterday-->
    Stage 2 Tour- America
    Current mood: rejuvenated
    I am in San Clemente today. We are working on our
    live set mix at Sounden Studios. We are about to go
    further and deeper. I have been greatly inspired in
    assembling the Satellite Party's American Tour. As
    is the case with all launched projectiles, parts
    fall off the back as the rocket climbs toward
    heaven. In stage 2 Nuno and Kevin have disengaged.
    Our new members are Nick Perri, and Jordan Plosky.

    Carl had told me about a young guitarist he jammed
    with at the "Dimebag" Darrel Abbot Benefit. He was
    an exceptional young player who was an amazing
    performer. He came in for his audition, and plugged
    strait in to the amp. The room was struck by a bolt
    of lightning. He caused a frenzy. Jordan was on
    drums. Carl on bass, Etty was singing. We held the
    rehearsal at the Paul Green School of Rock in
    Hollywood. Jordan is a great modern drummer. His
    style is perfectly suited for what we are up to. I
    went home that night and slept soundly. Also
    joining us on tour is a great young producer Cole
    Gion. He'll be playing synth and freaking out
    programs. We are going deeper -into the back
    catalogs. We are prepping for Satellite Party
    numbers, as well as Jane's, Porno, and Song Yet To
    Be Sung tracks. I feel energized by the prospect of
    our live sets.

    We all paddled out this morning and caught waves at
    Sano' - Some of us were catching waves for the first
    time in our lives. It's almost as much fun to teach
    people as it is to do it yourself. I remember the
    first time somebody taught me, and the thrill of my
    first catch. Today we are all full of sun, waves,
    and music. Tomorrow we head back home for big room
    rehearsals. USA-
    We're coming- from far and wide; singing a song to
    you,
    Better be ready- Perry"

    so the porn star is his wife? :rolleyes:
    nope certainly doesn't do much musically..

    (I do like the music btw..but by the time I saw them again at Nijmegen, having seen them at Southside, I had to just close my eyes to be able to enjoy it)

    Oh, that's cool. So hopefully they'll mix in some Janes/Porno for Pyros stuff. If nothing else, the price of the show would be worth it to me for that alone, especially given that it's such a small venue.

    Anyone pick up his album he released about 5 years ago, Song Yet to be Sung? Great album!
    Whoa, chill bro... you know you can't raise your voice like that when the lion's here.

    I heard their single on Sirius and was pleasantly suprised.
