RICKY ROCKS w/69 YEAR OLD DJ RUTH FLOWERS AT AN EVENT IN ANAHEIM, CA

Wed, 05 Jan 2011 06:45:00 GMT

Ricky Rocks & 69 year old DJ Ruth Flowers from the UK took the stage together @ The Grove in Anaheim, CA for a unforgettable rare performance!!

I had the opportunity to play with a lot of great DJs for the "I Love Electro Concert Series" that took place at the world famous Grove in Anaheim, CA on Nov. 6th 2010. During sound check Ruth and I hit it off and it was cool to hear all of her stories from touring in Europe. It was rad to do a show with her incorporating my live drum show since she hardly ever spins in the US. The crowd and venue were AMAZING! Over 1,200 people came out to support - THANK YOU!!!!

Some possible dates in Europe are in talks for 2011.... Below are some pics from sound check and the show later that night.

**VIDEO COMING SOON**
