I’m trying my hardest to distance myself from promoting DdFW shows since…well…since I don’t live there no mo’. But every once in awhile you’ll see a lil’ sumpin’ sumpin’ when it’s put on by folks I’m particularly fond of…like Rich…

DALLAS, TEXAS – SUSHISAMBA’s newest and most original party – SAMBAROCK – is hosting cyber auditions for an electric guitarist to play alongside a line-up of local and national DJs. After sunset SAMBAROCK serves up a mix of sonic pyrotechnics fusing classic rock anthems with tribal Brazilian beats. Following auditions one lucky musician will be selected to rock out every Friday night with a series of adrenaline inducing sets from 10pm-close.

The Dallas Observer’s Club Editor, Richard Lopez, is hosting auditions through SUSHISAMBA’S MySpace account (www.myspace.com/sushisambarestaurants) from July 19th-21st, Thursday through Saturday. To enter, musicians simply send a link to their demos and a brief resume. On Friday, July 27th SUSHISAMBA will invite Richard’s top five finalists for a live audition alongside DJ Mike.

SUSHISAMBA is located at Galleria Dallas, 13270 Dallas Parkway, Suite 1165. Reservations can be made by calling (214) 866-0214. For more information, visit www.sushisamba.com.
