SOCIETY 1 Frontman To Be Suspended While Playing Guitar At Houston Convention

October 16, 2007

SOCIETY 1 frontman Matt Zane will be suspended while playing guitar at the upcoming Pornstar Utopia and Ink Tattoo Convention in Houston, Texas on November 10. Zane will play guitar with CORE. He will be pierced in front of the crowd, stretched then lifted in to the air while playing guitar. He will then swing around and pick up Pleasure Productions contract girl Tera Wray. The band will play the whole time this is going on.

"After I was on the Dave Navarro show," stated Zane, "the offers to suspend for a live audience have been a little overwhelming. As much as I like to entertain, one of my main concerns with anything I do is to keep the performance fresh. I didn't want to attempt 100 suspensions and have them all be the same. So it just so happened that I was asked to perform in Houston and that is where the other chapter of CORE is located. They also have a musical director and musicians that play during their shows. So I thought it would be a great opportunity to bring my suspensions to the next level by playing guitar simultaneously while suspending and performing with the CORE musicians. It's something that we hope to incorporate into SOCIETY 1 shows as well."

Matt Zane has always been known for his singing in SOCIETY 1, but not for his guitar playing. "I have always played guitar and written 90% of everything in my band SOCIETY 1 but I was never outspoken about my guitar playing until recently. I never wanted the former guitar player to feel like I was trying to receive all the attention and recognition. It was hard enough to get him noticed because of my adult video involvement and outlandish stage show."

Matt Zane will be playing the Cobra model Greg Bennet guitar from his sponsor Samick Guitars.
