Coachella Set Times! More Pieces of The Rapture . . .
Saturday is my day, it will be glorious.
Speaking of The Rapture (wow, how often do I do I do that?!) their latest single and title track “Pieces Of The People We Love” was released yesterday.
They boys were recently in Japan, had a blast, and some fun adventures, and a lil down time.
Hello from OSAKA
“So we just played a bunch of shows in Australia and one in Singapore which were awesome. I think we’ve flown about 30.000 miles so far. Now we are about to do some shows in Japan. Here is a little clip of one of the Australia shows. Check it out.”
(I find this vid clip highly amusing, the guy singing along is totally into it and AWESOME!)
OSAKA
They hit the streets and met up with fans . . .
Vito was free wheeling on a Segway, dope helmet!
“Hi. So since Osaka we’ve continued the madness. 3 more great shows in Japan. Flew straight back to states and did 3 shows with The Killers in Florida, where quite frankly, we killed it. Big thanks to them for putting us on and being such gracious hosts. Made some new friends in the form of opening band Howling Bells, who you should definitely check out (myspace.com/howlingbells). All good things…
And now “our” US tour is officially up and running. We opened it up in Hattiesburg, MS. You can read up some background about Hattiesburg here: www.hattiesburgms.com. I have to be honest, I never would have guessed we would play there, and judging by the overwhelming welcome and excitement that came back at us, the kids didn’t think we would either. Not the most packed out affair, but the enthusiasm and boogie in the room was enough to warm the coldest of hearts. From there we rolled to Austin, TX to play an mtvU Campus Invasion show. Played a short, sweet set, ran ‘em over, ate some BBQ, watched The Shins, and then rolled out to Beauty Bar to DJ ’til closing. A great night.
My point is this. The Rapture is back on the ground over here, in good form, and possibly coming to a town near you. So check the schedule, buy a ticket, call your friends, come party with us.
Oh, and the 2nd official US single has arrived in the form of “Pieces of the People We Love. “ If you’re not familiar, listen on the player. We made another great video, check it out below or on our MySpace Vid page and add it to yours. If you like what you hear/see, call your radio station, write a letter, do whatever, let’s get this thing burning, no?
See you soon…”
Right on boys - no “mish” talking here!
