Do I kick back and enjoy the music and excitement of discovering new artists to share with you readers and viewers of our content? Or do I further my partner Richard\'s goal and convince all the hip marketing and sales people that will be exploiting their brands on the conference floor that they should be doing business with us?
...den mother Melissa drags him to on CC RV and then over to the Hilton for cocktails and tales from publicist Jody Miller and her beau Stanley, the Cooking Vinyl men, and some other UK music industry freaks. Jesus Speed finally rolls in from NY and they fall right into step. Let the party begin.

SO, YOU WANNA BE A ROCK 'N' ROLL STAR? Try surviving the haircut first. "Oh, this is my song!" shouts April Barton, hair stylist to rockers, punkers and metal gods, as she cranks up the stereo. <br>
As "Thrasher" by the band Jesus Speed shakes the walls of her studio, Barton snips and stabs maniacally at my hair.
She\'s like a whirlybird Strat-smashing Pete Townshend with a pair of scissors........

Bio
Jesus Speed is one of New York's most promising aggressive rock bands."
-acrossthehudson.com
Jesus Speed is Dane Johnson on bass, Bobby King on drums, and James Decker on guitar and lead vocals.
2005 proved to be a breakout year for Jesus Speed. To follow up on the previous year's release of the independent EP " Fight Songs", their online presence was announced with the debut of the song "Blue" on CultureCatch.com. A showcasing television appearance was the highlight of August 2005 when J.S. was the featured artist on Across the Hudson. Across the country, Jesus Speed has been rockin' the walls from the Chelsea Hotel (see article NY Post Sun. 10/23/05) to the Cinegrill at the legendary Roosevelt Hotel in Los Angeles.
In their hometown of NYC they regularly play to packed houses at some of the city's most renowned clubs including such notables as CBGB's, The Continental, and Arlene's Grocery, just to name a few. They have built a wildly dedicated fan base who love to rock it out with Jesus Speed.
The momentum is increasing on a daily basis. The return from Austin and their festival debut has Jesus Speed primed and ready for the next phase.
