Man, how fast does a month go by! A little update, the skinny on the fat, D.I.H. has been in the studio, working, working, working, to get this album launched and let me tell you, there is blood, sweat, and tears poured out on these recordings. Also, the band will be starting video blog updates soon, so for sure, keep an eye out for that. There will have some footage from the studio, rehearsal, drunken craziness, etc, thought that might be cool, and give a little insight into craziness that is behind the band.
We are also getting stuff ready for the tour, the show will be good, I can tell you that!
Confirmed some cool news the other day, DOWN IN HOLLYWOOD will be playing at HOCKEY TOWN CAFE for the Detroit Tigers game opener March 31, 2008. In case you don't know where that is, it is right across from the statium and we will be outside playing for the crowd before the game. They always have great entertainment before the game, and we are honored to grace the stage for that event. It will be killer and we are pretty excited about that one. It will be a good show, so even if you are not going to the game, you should still think about attending. It is a good atmosphere and tons of folks partying their asses off(and skipping work), so check it out! There are a lot more shows coming, in a lot more locations through the country, so keep checking back, we will put them up when we get em!
That is how it stands on February 22, 2008. A lot more things are in the works and we will keep this updated as we go. Thanks for reading D.I.H.

Both in the category of Alternative Rock! We are excited as you can imagine. You can view them at www.garageband.com/downinhollywood. Once again we thank the supporters, reviewers, and criticizm. That rocks. -D.I.H.

As the music industry drowns in the same cookie cutter image of a rock band, Down in Hollywood has arrived to put their dark stamp on a stagnant scene. Hailing from the cold streets of Detroit, Michigan, and transplanted to the sun of California, the boys are fast becoming the voice of disenfranchised youth around the world. Down In Hollywood is more than a group- it's a lifestyle. In the day of nondescript rockstars and faceless bands, Down In Hollywood is larger than life: Angel Zero (vocals), Jp (guitars), Coleman (bass), Tsyke (drums) and Flop-C (effects) are the real deal. Within their unique personalities is an authentic love of their craft, and it shows. The quintet truly walks the walk- creating a sound and stage show that rivals the best in
the business. And above all the music speaks for itself- from the anthemic track 'Bloody Rose' to the harsh reality of 'Rockstar Life' the group showcases their uncanny ability to capture real life situations and turn them into musical works of art. Great musicianship and a fresh perspective lyrically make Down In Hollywood a strong contender for the alt/rock crown in 2008. Since signing with indie powerhouse label Transmission:222 Down In Hollywood has been hard at work recording their debut Full Length CD 'Still Untitled!', (due to be available nationwide in Spring 2008) and working on their premier video. The band has also been warming up the national circuit, recently opening for bands like Saliva (Island Def Jam) and Evan's Blue (Hollywood Records). As the fan base grows the buzz
builds- and DIH is ready to take the industry head on. And that's just for starters.
LOTS of love always!!xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
