Johnny Depp books South Border for gigs at Viper Room
Manila Standard Today – The biggest buzz in the music circuit is South Border’s imminent move to Los Angeles. This is largely unconfirmed, but band aficionados have been talking about it – By Isah V. Red.
Why move when things are still A-OK with them here in their beloved country?
Apparently it is an offer difficult to resist, for after all it’s no less than the very eccentric Johhny Depp (Pirates of the Caribbean, Secret Window, What’s Eating Gilbert Grapes, Nick of Time, and many more) who wants them in The Viper Room, the famous bar on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood that is partly owned by Depp.
So, how did Depp know about South Border?
This one’s a little hazy, but he might have picked up an album somewhere, or got interested in the name and downloaded a tune from Napster and found them interesting he asked his guys to get in touch with the band. That’s as far as the tale goes.
