Greg Prato at Songfacts recently caught up with Saigin Kick guitarist Jason Bieler. An excerpt from the story is available below:
Songfacts: What is Saigon Kick currently up to, and do you think that a new studio album is going to be released at some point?
Jason: "We are going to do a new album with Billy Squier as our frontman, and we're going to do 18 live versions of "Rock Me Tonite" and mix it up. No, but we're talking, we're taking our time, we're not doing a lot. We just played with Avenged Sevenfold and Volbeat and Chevelle three months ago. To even be put in that wheelhouse of bands was awesome. And we played with Alter Bridge and All That Remains and a bunch of bands like that.
So we're taking these festival opportunities when they make sense for us. I'm sure at some point we'll get to music, but we're trying to walk the line we didn't walk correctly before. We want to make sure we don't go that road - and I won't name names - but these sad, horrid bands from way before that are playing every pig-in-a-poke barbecue festival for any amount of money and just living in the glory of before.
Not that we think we're going to be this new reborn cool thing, but we just want to stay a lot more true to who we are musically and a little bit more protective of what we weren't protective of before, and show the things about us that we didn't really pay attention to. So that's kind of where our head's at, both musically and even performance-wise. That's why we're not doing 300 dates and that's why we're not supporting every band or doing a headline here. Heck, we've done nine or ten shows in coming on two years.
So we're just really taking it easy and finding the right opportunities that make sense for us."
