While clearly not a man of many words, Damion Suomi is a Florida-based singer/songwriter, who joined us for our 5GB series before this show tonight at The Earl.
What’s the first gig you ever attended?
Not sure I remember what the very first gig I ever went to was, but I do remember one of the first being Goldfinger and Real Big Fish at the Sapphire Supper Club in Orlando. I still love ska. I don’t even care.
What is the best gig that you ever played/performed?
Best gig I ever played was January 2010 in Orlando. It was 5 or 6 days after my father had suddenly passed. The amount of support and love I felt that night was amazing. I’ll never forget it.
What is the best gig you have ever seen?
Spring Heeled Jack in 1998.
What is the gig you would most like to play?
Bonnaroo
What would be the lineup for your dream gig?
Pete Seeger, LCD Soundsystem, David Bazan, and Leon Redbone.
