Hello there everyone, yes its a new informative news update here. We want to
let everyone know that we are working on a brand new website. We realize the
site has been pretty boring and for sure lacking updates as many of you have
complained about. The new site should be very cool and Jason has been working
with his close friend and computer genius Nick to develop an eye catching, informative
site. Our new webmaster Peter, is really pumped up about building the site as
well. On the note of webmasters, we would like to give huge props to Brandon
who started and ran our site from its beginning. Brandon dedicated a lot of time
to strungout.com and we just want to say thank you for all those years of doing
so. Brandon needed to pass the reins on as he has become much to busy with his
own business and family to fully dedicate enough time to the site. We wish you
the best and we know you will always be a Strung Out fan and our friend. Well,
what to expect from the new site? Jason says "The new site will feature
more interaction with the band, exlusive merchandise, new videos, Mp3s, lifestyle
pictures, and whatever other cool shit we can think to put on so stay tuned for
a new chapter" As of right now, we are gearing up for our European
tour which starts May 16th in the UK and of course will be a great time. We will
continue to stay busy with Australia in July and a US/Canadian tour in August
thru September. We still are working on making plans for Costa Rica as
well as looking into the possibilities of getting over to South Africa. Oh ya,
Japan is in the works for October.Its been five years since weve been to Japan
and we cant wait to get back there. Our "Live In A Dive" live CD is
set to come out in June and we are all proud of how well it turned out. The track
listing has been posted on fatwreck.com and everyone seems to be pretty satisfied
with the song selection.It was a tough time picking out what songs to use being
we recorded 47 songs. We think everyone will be pumped on it for sure. Well,
myself, Jake, Jason, Rob, and Chris just want everyone to know how much we appreciate
everyone's continued support and we look forward to seeing everyone at a show
...im gonna shut up now cause this is really long but at least it gives you guys
and gals some info. Stay tuned.....

Some News from Jordan!!
Hello there everyone !!! Just wanted to give you all a little information on
what we have been up to lately. We haven’t played any shows in a little
while now and we are for sure looking forward to playing again starting in mid
March. We have been working on the "Live in a Dive" Cd and it is coming
along quite well. We are working with Chris Vrenna and were quite honored that
he is doing our CD. Chris was the drummer from NIN and has now worked with TONS
of huge acts such as Metallica, Megadeth, Motley Crue, Weezer, U2, Hole, Etc....
and of course his own band Tweaker. Live in a Dive has a TENATIVE release date
of June 3rd so we hope it stays on schedule. Jason has been designing the artwork
and storyline for the comic book and its looking awesome. I have seen the cover
for it and i always feel so lucky that we have not only a very talented singer/song
writer in the band but an incredible artist as well. In our spare time, each
of us have been doing our own thing. I’ve been going to all the recent
rounds of the Supercross Series supporting our motocross team "Moto XXX"
and doing a bunch of riding as well. I once again beat my friend Steve Caballero
in this years Crossover Challenge race by one position. He promises me that
will not happen again at next year’s race. Rob has been busy working on
the set of American Pie 3.Chris has been delivering some pizza's here n there
in Simi Valley, singing tons of Karaoke, getting drunk and carried out of bars.
Jake has been playing his guitar non stop writing new songs, doing bongs and
giving guitar lessons. And Jason has been skating a lot, giving tattoos, and
creating incredible artwork. We have been doing a bunch of practicing as well
and have 8 new songs as of right now. We hope to possibly be ready to record for
a new CD sometime towards the end of the year for a 2004 release. Well i suppose
that’s about all i can think of at this time. For anyone that has been
purchasing our merchandise from www.merch.com, we would be interested in hearing
your feedback on the message board as to how satisfied you've been with them.
We think they are doing an excellent job but would like to actually hear from
some of you people making purchases with them. Any ideas are welcome as well.
Just post on the message board. We may not always post or respond there but
we do read it quite often. Anyhow, thanks to everyone for your continued support
for our band. Its much appreciated. Hope to see everyone at a show down the
road.
Take care.....
