Gorgeous hipsters, weenies on a stick, and a wide selection of PBR in a can made for solid pre-show preparation. Not to mention, we had our first encounter with the Firefly peeps from South Carolina. Our friend, and accountant’s main squeeze, Barbara at Music Incider took some sweet photos and posted them via MySpace. Here’s a sample:

The Nation of Smooth represented in full force at Deisel Tuesday night at over 350 strong.  Thank you for rocking the Yacht. There was no shortage of eat, drink, or free stuff during the whole cruise.  Even the cabin boy got to eat.  You’re welcome.  Witness the yachtiness and pick up your Yachty Photo Booth pictures HERE (courtesy of our friends at Mixtape Atlanta).

Of course, Three Dog Stevens is thankful for all of the sponsors that helped keep the event afloat, especially the fine young ladies of Sashay Creative Events.  3DS even debuted their first silent film!  You can check out the production complete with sound overdubs at the PleaseRock YouTube page.  Or, just look below.

LISTEN: Good Luck With That American Dream. Recorded live @ Eddie’s Attic, this somewhat yachty version of our track that appeared on an international Coca-Cola commercial gives a preview of some of the sounds you can expect at the Earl on Saturday.  Smooth?

Speaking of the E.P., we’re having a private listening party next Tuesday, June 30 at Diesel in the Virginia Highlands:  PleaseRock the Yacht – A Celebration of Y O U, Yacht Rock, and All Things PleaseRock. Presented by PleaseRock and Sashay Creative Events.

We’ll be blasting our new recordings, debuting a couple of 3 Dog Stevens webisodes (including their ill-fated trip to Yacht Rock), and explaining away the confusion regarding our many aliases.

We’re also giving away tons of free stuff:  free food from Diesel, free drinks from Atlanta Brewing Company, free tickets (Pete Yorn, Y O U, etc.) from Ticket Alternative, and perhaps most importantly:  The Yacht Rock Cruise Pass, which grants free admission to every Yacht Rock at the 10 High for the rest of the year!

RSVP to the party to get more chances at winning things:  RSVP@SASHAYEVENTS.COM.

Parting Shot:  Here’s me waxing poetic about product placement in an interview with Creative Loafing at Brew at the Zoo (half-way through this video):
