Mickey Avalon (real name Yeshe Perl) is a rap artist from Hollywood, California. His debut self-titled solo album was released Nov. 7, 2006 on Interscope/Shoot to Kill Records in association with MySpace Records. Avalon blends dark, lewd, and crizzled lyrical hooks with hip-hop beats. Frequent topics of Avalon's songs are his experiences with substance abuse and prostitution. His family upbringing was tumultuous and both he and his parents were involved with drugs. Avalon's paternal grandparents are Holocaust survivors; both endured lasting injuries from their imprisonment at Auschwitz. Avalon is friends with Antonio, who encouraged Avalon to write lyrics and perform when Mickey was broke and living on Anton's sofa. Avalon soon gained a following in the Los Angeles nightclub scene. He has since enjoyed a surge in popularity partly due to promotion of his music on the MySpace website. In the media Avalon appeared on the Jimmy Kimmel Live show on Friday the February 23, 2007. He appeared in an episode of The Simple Life where he auditioned to perform the song "Friends and Lovers" at a lesbian wedding. Avalon's sexually-themed song "Jane Fonda" was featured in HBO's Entourage. Avalon appeared on Steven's Untitled Rock Show on Wednesday the April 3, 2007 Avalon replaced Gnarls Barkley as the opening act for the Red Hot Chili Peppers on March 12, 2007 in Oklahoma City. At that show John Frusciante joined Avalon onstage and criticized the audience for their poor reception and "booing" of Avalon. Avalon repeatedly told the audience he wasn't wanting to get in the way of the Chili Peppers performing, he was just there to "pay the rent". Frusciante also sent a very long and heated letter to the fans of www.redhotchilipeppers.com explaining how upset he was at the audiences' disrespect of Avalon. Avalon appeared onstage with Shaun Ryder and the rest of the Happy Mondays at the 2007 Coachella Music Festival in Indio, Calif. Avalon opened for T.I. at the University of California, Santa Barbara's "Extravaganza" event in May 2007. Collaborations On Unwritten Law's 2007 greatest hits/remix album, The Hit List, Avalon performs "Shoulda Known Better".

Mickey Avalon
Remember the boy next door that played records all day, and at night kept you up with songs of his own? He left home one day and was never heard from again. He moved to the big city, living in cheap motels, eating dollar hamburgers, working the boulevard with ex-models, thorazine freaks, transvestites, mothers, fathers, drunks, junkies and punk rockers alike. He struggled during many long lonely desperate nights under the dizzying city lights but made a vow that he would never forget the magic in this worldthe things he loved the most: his first fix, his first girl and most importantlythe first time he rocked a mic.

Warehouse Live
Warehouse Live is a 1920's era warehouse repurposed as a one-of-a-kind concert and event venue. In order to achieve a true urban environment, the thoughtful design incorporates the selection of both contemporary and antique materials and fixtures. The complex encompasses two fully-independent spaces - the Ballroom and the Studio - each with their own entrances and exits, restrooms, bars, stages and sound and lighting systems. While parking can often be a problem downtown, Warehouse Live benefits from ample non-metered street parking throughout the Warehouse District and has access to three dedicated surface lots adjacent to the facility.Phone: (713) 225-5483
