Winner receives a signed product and a bunch of Hyper Crush goods, as well as HK Army gear. The votes have been tallied and the winner is Cassidy Sanders. Here is his winning video! Check it out!

We kicked off the day at Irvine Lake with a party in the HK Army bus. We anticipated a huge turnout for this event, so the whole crew made it out. The doors opened and kids came flooding in. The SoCal Rock Revolution was off to a good start.

We partied in the bus until we ran out of booze. Marky set up our Mackie speakers outside the bus and within a few seconds a dance party emerged. I mean… what can you expect when you mix a bus, alcohol, loud music, and a ton of fans.

Time flew by and before we knew it, our sponsored bands were up on the main stage. Sky Diamond City, out of Los Angeles, was our first band performing. These guys are amazing and definitely someone to keep an eye out for. They are doing big things and gaining exposure quickly. They rallied up a huge crowd and had a great performance. We had the HK Army logo, skull and crossbones, on the main stage. So we got some epic video footage. Check them out at Myspace.com/SkyDiamondCity

Bullets and Octane were up next. These guys are a large band out of Southern California. They have done major tours with Avenged Sevenfold, Flogging Molly and Social Distortion. Their performance was real solid at the SoCal Rock Revolution and repped HK hard.

Escape the Fate mobbed the stage after Bullets and Octane. They had a massive crowd for their set. They even pulled off the infamous, “wall of death.” It was by far one of the most energetic sets. Craig, the lead singer of Escape the Fate, was sporting the Boz.

Last but not least, we had our headlining band, Story of the Year, finish up the night. These guys are literally performing acrobatics while playing their instruments on stage. It is incredible. The lead singer, Dan Marsala, attempted a back flip, but completely tweaked and rolled his ankle. Within minutes a giant cankle formed and he could barely move around anymore. It was a noble attempt, but unfortunately he failed miserably.

SoCal Rock Revolution was a success overall. We had a lot of fun and it was great working with KROQ, Rockstar and Sullen. All our bands did extremely well and we are looking forward to the next event.

Hyper Crush and HK Army just wrapped up the Kevin Rudolf, “Let It Rock Tour.” The tour definitely rocked and Hyper Crush killed it! They just upgraded their light show, giving their performance even more hype. The tour also consisted of Cash Cash, Go Crash Audio, and The Audition. All these guys were fantastic and repped HK Army hard. Keep an eye out for when Hyper Crush drops their new album soon! And stay tuned for the next nation wide tour with HK Army and the tour bus!

It was a long haul, but we finally finished up the Saints and Sinners tour. Naturally, we encountered the standard casualties of tour. Nothing out of the ordinary; Three blown-out tires, melted brakes and rotors, calipers exploding, busted water pump, broken exhaust and a hole through our bathroom door. Interestingly enough, that was far less damages than we had anticipated. But the bus took a beating none the less. Rolling with BrokeNcyde is always an exciting adventure. They kept us on our toes.

We kicked off the tour in Florida at a giant venue. We had no idea what to expect because all we knew was that BrokeNcyde’s fan base consisted of 10-year old girls that scream, “Lick my penis up and down, back and forth.” But little did we know that this amazing line-up of bands had an incredible draw. Every show was sold out and capacity ranged from 1,500 to 3,600 people! It was an extraordinary experience, to say the least. Hollywood Undead, Senses Fail, Haste the Day and BrokeNcyde was an unstoppable set.

We were all anxious to see what the other bands were like. We had made a few assumptions, but when we saw Hollywood Undead roll up in their bus with a line of supermodels awaiting them outside, we knew they meant business. They were an awesome group of guys and showed us great hospitality. One night we went out with them to a spot in Houston called the “Dirt Bar.”  We would describe the beautiful ambiance of the bar, if we could remember. Lets just say these guys drink Grey Goose like a 12-year old drinks shirley temples. Not to mention everything is complementary when you roll with a band that wears masks. Sweeeet.

Senses Fail put on a great show as well. The lead singer, Buddy, was down with the HK. One night he came on our bus to hang out and, of course, the juice was flowing. One thing led to another, and without warning a battle of testosterone unleashed within the HK bus. Brian and Buddy were grappling on our living room floor attempting establish who was truly the alpha male. It appeared to end in a draw, however, I would have to assume they both lost, considering the neck aches in the morning and a stomach full of jumbled booze. Next time they are in town, we are scheduling a rematch at subfighter. 

For those of you that are unaware, Haste the Day is a Christian metal band. Great talent and amazing performers, but you’re not going to find any extravagant stories that involve debauchery or any of the seven deadly sins. 

As for BrokeNcyde, I believe I could write a best selling novel that would rival Motley Crue’s book, “The Dirt: Confessions of the Worlds Most Notorious Rockband.”  These guys cross the line on so many levels. I mean, they just fit in with HK Army like two peas in a pod. We have never eaten so much Taco Bell in our entire life. I think we have officially sampled every item on their menu. While on tour we got snowed-in passing through Dalhart Texas and missed a couple shows. Stuck in a hotel with a squad of traveling cheerleaders during an epic blizzard, next to a liquor store makes for a dangerous cocktail. 

We hope we never have to see any of them again =) But in all honesty, the bands and their crews were amazing and we had a magnificent time. Crunk Energy drink sponsored our bus, along with BrokeNcyde and hooked it up with tons of free energy drinks. We’d like to thank them for all the support, and mostly because their energy drinks mix extremely well with vodka. Also, PB Fashion was amazing and laced everyone with trendy glow-in-the-dark bandanas. Thanks to all the HK Army support that made it out to the shows! we look forward to seeing you guys on the next tour!

 HK Army is currently on tour with an amazing line-up of great bands. BrokeNCYDE (BC13), Hollywood Undead, Senses Fail and Haste the Day!!!
