After winning a High Times award, the band played SXSW and then stopped in Tupelo, Mississippi, where they sold out a 500-600 person club. Local radio promoter Dodson backed the track hard, and the crowd sang every word of "Roller Coaster" back to them.
We ended up releasing Roller Coaster and a station out of Tupelo, Mississippi, picked it up and he's playing the shit out of it. And on the way to south by Southwest, what I think it was actually on the way back, you know, we got invited to south by Southwest by High Times, because we won a High Times award. So we went there, performed, and then we ended up, you know, receiving our. Our trophy, which was like this glass bong you could smoke out of, which is pretty badass. And then on the way back, it was like a Tuesday, we hit Tupelo, Mississippi and it was like it was sold out. This little club we were playing, it was like five, six hundred people there and same thing, everyone's singing it. It's awesome because we were getting spun big time. The radio station was really behind us and Dodson was the guy that was behind us there and he was the man, he loved us and we were taken care of there.
