May 30, 2003. Social Burn, Memento, Presence, and Headroom at The Samurai.David was working with Headroom, trying to break the band. Social Burn had major label heat. It felt like another club show on paper.It wasn’t.Ichiro ran The Samurai differently. If you told him a national act was in town, he made space. Weeknight, weekend, didn’t matter. He understood traffic before social media existed.Bands would come in. He’d cook for them. They’d hang out. A local band would be playing. Someone makes a phone call.“Hey. Guns N’ Roses is at The Samurai.”No Instagram story. No group text. Just a phone and word spreading fast. If you were smart, you got in your car immediately.Next thing you know, the place is packed.That was Ichiro. That was The Samurai. #HeresTheDealPodcast #SamuraiSakiHouse #Ichiro #SocialBurn #Headroom #MaxBakerJr #JeffBrownen #oklahomacityLike, share, and follow so these stories keep getting told.Follow & Connect: Max Baker Jr. Instagram @bmaddmaxx | Facebook @bmaddmaxx Jeff Brownen Facebook @jeff.brownenHere’s The Deal YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@heresthedealokHere’s The Deal Podcast Website https://heresthedealok.comBuy Here’s The Deal Vintage & Collectables https://heresthedealvintagecollectables.comGet an Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Card https://medcardsmadeeasy.netConcert & Event Production Services https://bakerboyspro.comBuy Roadie CBD Balm & Oil https://bakersremedycbd.com
