Old News

Note: The information on this page is in reverse cronological order- the begining stuff is the newest and gets moved downward when more new stuff comes along. I keep everything up here, don't ask why.

Updates As Of May 9, 2001:
- Whoa, uh, ooops.... I seemed to have forgotten that when you have a website like this, you are supposed to UPDATE it when you have new information. Sorry about that.
- Hanson is currently at work on their follow-up album to the awesome This Time Around. So far they have cowritten with people like Matthew Sweet, and others.... and I think Gregg Alexander, the singer for the New Radicals (did you know they broke up after one hit? that's so sad....). Hanson likes to talk about "Underneath" a lot, the one they wrote with Matthew Sweet. They are making a documentry about the making of the new album, too... and are hoping that the footage of their four hour session writing "Underneath" will end up on that thing. I'm really looking forward to it.
- OKLAHOMA FANS... and others interested: Saturday, June 9, Hanson will be one of several bands playing at Tulsa's Riverfest. They will be playing an acoustic set from 5:00 to 5:30 pm. (Makes me wish I lived there.... most of you fans travel to see Hanson though, I only go nearby... is that really weird?? Am I not a real hardcore fan?)
- Zac is in a country music video! See, if I actually knew about country music, and still watched TV, I could probably tell you more information here. He makes a cameo in a video. Don't come to my site for news, ever. You will only be disappointed. Actually, the song is called "Can't Get Nowhere", and here are some stills from it. (stolen lovingly from hanson.... hotel? maybe? crap. I need to remember these things)
- They've done a lot of other things I haven't mentioned. I promise in the future I will try to be at least as good as I used to be with news. :(
- In the meantime, check out Zac. Yeeeah, baby! ;D

Zac??

Updates As Of January 9, 2001:
- Hanson will be on the Malcom in the Middle Soundtrack that is going to be released February 6. Their song "Smile" (released on the Austrailian version of This Time Around) will be featured.
- Hanson is currently resting up at home, and will soon start work on a new album.
- I don't have any other news, so, randomly, here's a picture from when Hanson made an appearence on Noah Knows Best on Nickelodeon.
I didn't see it, but if he put Hanson on there, Noah SURE must know best!

Updates As Of December 21, 2000:
- Hanson made a video for "Save Me"! You can watch it online at Launch.com. It's beautiful... Hanson and Ashley Greyson (who you might know from the fan club magazine, MOE) made it with an incredibly low budget, and were editing it all together while they were on tour.

Updates As Of November 19, 2000:
- November 24th: The Teen Choice Awards are going to re-run on Fox Family Channel at 2 PM ET. Hanson appears in the first 10 minutes and they hand out an award for the "Movies Chemistry" category. (with Mandy Moore)-

Rollingstone Magazine picked their "hottest" photographs and printed them in their new hardcover book titled "Hot House". A Hanson's picture (full-page shot) is being feautured there. You can order this book at Amazon.com for $24 (kind of a lot of money if you're looking for the one picture, though...). And also you can probably find this book at any of your local bookstores, too.
You can find Hanson online.......-

Updates As Of November 17, 2000:
TODAY IS ISAAC'S TWENTIETH BIRTHDAY! :)
Hey hey! It's not too soon, but it's something to look forward to! Hanson is going to release the song "Smile" on the Malcolm In The Middle Soundtrack! I think it will be early next year... but there is a possibility that there is going to be a *VIDEO*! You might have heard this song on the clip they put on the MOE Enhanced CD from way back when if you are a fan club member.. or if you saw them in concert, they played it at some places (ie- San Francisco, the Warfield). It's such a great song and I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE it!
Don't forget, Hanson is supposed to be on Noah Knows Best on Nickelodeon November 18! 8:30 p.m.
They are supposed to be going back into the studio in March to record that new album... no other news from me.

Updates As Of October 23, 2000:
TODAY IS ZAC'S FIFTEENTH BIRTHDAY! :)
This isn't quite Hanson (well, it IS, only not..), but this is fun. Go to VideoLab! You can make your own music video to "If Only" if you have Flash. It's lots and lots of fun! Knock yourself out. :) Not literally, of course.
If you catch Hanson on the end of the "This Time Around 2000" tour, you might catch some new material. :) I'm envious!
I don't have any other news, so, here is a random picture for *you*!-
I get crazy when they do this in concert
Well, it's Taylor and Isaac doing the "share the mic" thing, which makes me scream crazily when I see them do it in concert, don't ask me why, trust me, you don't want to know!

Updates As Of October 22, 2000:
Hanson is ending the "This Time Around Tour 2000" soon. They've been on tour with M2M. If you have no clue who M2M is, here is a picture of the two girls:
I don't like them, but hey, appearently some other people do.
Updates As Of October 9, 2000:
IslandDefJam.com said that Hanson would be releasing a live album titled "Live From The Fillmore"... but they changed the website. So I don't think it's going to come out anymore... But I *hear* that there is going to be a video! Keep your fingers crossed. If the video has stuff from the Fillmore, I, your beloved web-"master", shall be in it. :) But I'll much more than gladly take any kind of video they put out. Everytime they do one it's great.
IslandDefJam.com also says "Please tune in to "Noah Knows Best" featuring HANSON on Nickelodeon!! The program airs on Saturday, November 18th @ 8:30pm."

Updates As Of October 6, 2000:
Well, This Time Around isn't doing as well as Hanson had hoped, so they aren't going to release any more singles off of the album. I'm upset... No "Runwawy Run" on the radio! Noooo! They are too busy touring to promote a new single right now.
Anyway, there is good news in this as well! They are going to record a new album that will hopefully be out in about... oh, early 2001-ish. All new Hanson music! At least that part is good. :)

Updates As Of September 10, 2000:
IslandDefJam's website says that Hanson will release a "Live From The Fillmore" album (tentatively)on November 7. *smiles*
Hanson will appear on MTV(USA)'s Total Reuest Live (aka "TRL") September 11! They will be doing something relateing to the 500th episode.
There is a small Hanson mentioning in the newest Rolling Stone with Madonna on the cover. I can't remember where right now... *blushes* but it's fairly small and I'll find out soon.

Updates As Of September 1, 2000:
The This Time Around Tour is in full swing... Hanson is truely amazing in concert!
The next single is either going to be Runaway Run or Save Me.

This Time Around- the album and the single- has been certified GOLD (500,000 copies). That means that many copies have been shipped to record stores, not sold yet... but they will be soon.

Hey, check out CosmoGirl.com's "which Hanson are you most compatable with?" test! Test. I'm happy I got Taylor, even though this is totally not a valid test.

Updates As Of June 27, 2000:
I just saw Hanson at the Fillmore in San Francisco! It was my first Hanson concert (missed 'em on the Albertane Tour) and I had a great time!! Thank you for grabbing my hand, Taylor! Isaac, I was stadning right by you and you didn't look up at me at all.... but that's cool. The concert will be played on Direct TV all through the month of August. Hanson will be returning to San Francisco at the Warfield on August 4. Tickets go on sale Sunday, July 9 at 10 a.m.... or so my little yellow flyer I was handed on the way out told me. That's all I know on any ticket sale plans though.

Updates As Of June 23, 2000:
I'm clear on this, now! If you live in the San Francisco area (like me!) and want tickets to see them, call the Hanson Hotline (I have information below) if you belong to MOE or Hanson.net. If you don't, listen to Z95.7 like crazy for ticket contests... that's all I can tell you. I am praying for tickets, myself. The concert is at the FIllmore West on Tuesday, June 27, 2000. It starts at 8 p.m...

Updates As Of June 22, 2000:
ALL SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA MOE and/or HANSON.NET MEMBERS! There will be a Hanson concert at the Fillmore on Tuesday.
