Brett Albee gets a knee to the head by 'Virgil Rez Dog' Zwicker

Fresh off the commanding victory over Brett Albee at Strikeforce San Diego, Virgil “the Rez Dog” Zwicker returned back to the gym to help coach and mentor Dan Henderson prepare for his blockbuster bout with Fedor Emelianenko. Exchanging blows with Hendo is not everyone’s idea of a day at the office, but for the Rez Dog its everyday business. Training at Team Quest for the majority of his fight career has given Zwicker the opportunity to be in the gym with top-level athletes on a daily basis like fellow teammates Dave Herman, Jesse Taylor, Sam Alvey and Fernando Gonzalez. He often gets the call to participate in camps with other fighters and has become a familiar face up at Vladimir Matyushenko’s gym (VMAT), training with the “Janitor” himself and his boys Jared Hamman and Antoni Hardonk.

Virgil “Rez Dog” Zwicker trains with team mates at the Team Quest facility in Murrieta, CA . MMA Fighters give there take on friend and training partner explaining what its like in the ring with the Rez Dog. Guest include UFC standout Dave “Pee-Wee” Herman, TUF alumni Frank Lester, Bellator rising star “Smile’n” Sam Alvey, and fellow warrior Fernando Gonzalez. Get a up close look in the gym with the Rez Dog!

On Sept. 10th, 2011 L.A. reggae sensation “Los Bullets” or “The Bullets”, bring their boss sounds to the Carlsbad coast.  These guys formed a super group from some of the most talented reggae-soul artists in Los Angeles. Malik Moore’s unique vocal patterns and range take you back to your favorite part of soul music from its greatest era. Meanwhile Roger Rivas, also of the famed “Dirty Reggae” group Aggrolites, lays down his signature sound on the Hammond B3 that is truly unique. Noe Santana and Ricky Chacon drive the guitars putting them directly in the pocket, as Thomas Ochoa keeps your chest filled with bass. Percussion is tastefully added by Boogie and the drums are delivered properly by the young but experienced Alex McKenzie, also of the Aggrolites.

All of the musicians are seasoned and the tunes are amazing as they are presented. This will be a show that is not to be missed and if you can’t make it then pick up, download or order an album to enjoy the true reggae-soul on your own time. Boar Cross’n in Carlsbad, CA is the venue to be at on Saturday September 10th, 2011. The bar is fully stocked and the environment is alive, so come with the expectation to dance and you wont be disappointed.  To add to the festivities we will be celebrating with Social Green’s lead vocalist Ian Crosby on his day of birth. There will be special guest performances as well as free giveaways including gifts from your local indoor garden supply store “D.I.G.S” and much more!  Real music is alive and you can enjoy it this weekend!
