I can still remember the first time that Alex
@ad1980111 introduced to me
@sspu . We were on a plane headed out to Hawaii & Alex was blaring
@sspu in his AirPods. He encouraged me to listen to them & I have to admit, I was totally digging their sound.
When
@sectionlive announced that
@sspu was coming to GR, I just knew Alex would be so stoked to see them live. So, I got tickets & managed to also score some VIP tickets.
Prior to the show last night, with VIP access, Alex & I were able to listen to
@sspu sound check. The band played 3 songs for us that were not gonna be played that night & afterwards, answered questions from the audience. The band also gifted each VIP member with an autographed lanyard & their newest album. I cannot tell you how awesome this experience was. Honestly, I left that experience so impressed with the band & how generous/kind that they were with the fans, that I couldn’t help but instantly fall in love with them.
But man oh man, nothing compares to seeing
@sspu perform. Holy moly were they fucking AMAZING 🔥🔥🔥. For as talented as they all are,
@sspu should be playing in larger venues. This band is extremely cool AF!! I couldn’t get over
@nikkimonninger & her badass bass playing. She rocks 🤘🏻🎸. Just hearing Nikki & Brian Aubert (lead singer) perform guitar solos together was so fun to watch. All the different sounds too really made me feel like I was on cloud 9 last night. The entire band was impressive & I am 💯 % a
@sspu fan now. I cannot wait to see them live again in the near future (hopefully, with
@weezer 😉). Highly, highly recommend!
Thank you again to
@sspu for making our night, a night to remember. Not only did I walk away with a new most favorite band, but I also heard a quote from the lead singer, Brian Aubert, that I just adored:
“Sanity is a form of rebellion & decency is punk as fuck.”
How fucking cool is that? Rock on
@sspu 🤘🏻. Love you all 🫶🏻🔥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.
