Europe shows postponed

Yellowcardiacs, Ryan updated the Myspace blog with sad news. LP's grandmother isn't very healthy and some shows in Europe were canceled because of the time he'll be out of the band to stay with her....
Read the complete blog post:

Germany, Austria, Swiss shows postponed

Hello everyone. I have some unfortunate news. We have been planning on coming to Germany, Austria and Switzerland for a tour in January and were very excited about it. Unfortunately we are going to have to postpone the dates indefinitely. LP is very close with his Grandmother who raised him in Jacksonville, FL and her health is failing. He has asked us if he could take some time to be home with her over these next couple of months. We of course support him and know that this is a difficult time for him and his family. The tickets for the shows are fully refundable and we will let everyone know as soon as we have any information regarding the rescheduling of the tour. I hope this doesn't inconvenience anyone too much and we look forward to making this tour happen as soon as possible. Thank you.

Myspace blog

Ryan published a new blog talking about Casey Calvert's death. Check it:

Sad...

I heard today that Casey Calvert from Hawthorne Heights passed away in his sleep last night. I certainly don't have the right words to say. We were fortunate enough to have the chance to play with him and I remember nothing but smiles when he was around at shows. I am not very good friends with the guys personally but I cannot imagine what they are going through right now. Our thoughts are with them and I am sure they could use some friendly words on their myspace page. Such sad news.

Yellowcard on David Letterman!

In June 22th, 2006 Yellowcard presented on the American talk show broadcast by CBS "Late Show with David Letterman".

You can watch they playing "Rough Landing, Holly" above.



Now you, beloved Yellowcard fan, would ask: "WTF, that was more than a year ago!!"
And I would answer: The show was rerun yesterday by CBS because of the writers strike in USA and also I think you guys would like to watch "Rough Landing, Holly" live, because it's amazing, isn't it?

^^

Video of the week

We found a cool video on the online channel Bright Cove talking about Paper Walls!

Pay attention to the complaint of Ryan!!!!

Thanksgiving Day!

Sean left a message on Myspace blog:

family of friends....

"happy thanksgiving!! its funny that we arrived in japan on an american holiday. a day that is usually spent watching football and pigging out on old family recipes, hanging with the folks and all nearby friends, and taking food induced naps, we here at yellowcard spent most of the day travelling. and after our 14 hour travel day was over, we all got together and had a nice italian dinner! i had the bolognese and shared a small pep pizza with lp. it was pretty good too. i have been to japan three times in the last six months, and everything is starting to look really familiar. its a pretty awesome place, one of my favorites in the whole world. but i do kinda miss my family and loved ones today. im just really lucky i travel with my other family. the people i have lived with for the past 8 years. and it was really nice to just sit down and have dinner as a family. that is what holidays are all about, being with your family. so have a safe holiday, and please, for the love of God, eat a piece of pumpkin pie for me." sean


As soon as we find, we will put a video here from the Japanese tour, ok?!

HAVE A GREAT THANKSGIVING DAY!!!

Yellowcard into new technology

In an interview this Thrusday, 15, to the site Yahoo Tech, especialized in technology, the violinist Sean Mackin announced that the song "Fighting", from Paper Walls is in the soundtrack for the american football video game "Madden 08"

"Xbox and Microsoft have always been really kind to Yellowcard, and we have a really strong relationship with EA Games. Madden 08 came out, and one of our new songs from our new album 'Paper Walls' is on there.", said Sean.

The game has already sold more than 4,5 milion copies and is available for XBOX 360, Nintendo Wii, Playstation 3 and PC.



That's a great way of promoting the band, since a lot of people become fans after hearing some song while they're playing them favorite game!

Sean also said he doesn't like text messages and would rather use a phone, revealed that he's never illegally downloaded music, does not use his iPod to watch videos, and the most extravagant piece of tech he's ever bought was a 60-inch LCD TV with HD, it was a Christmas present he gave to himself!!!

New message on Myspace blog!

Today Ryan posted a new message on Myspace, read it:


Goodbye October...

"We are in Tulsa, OK for a day off. Last night we played a show in nashville in this cool little bar for about 75 people. It was amazing. We all just had fun and hung out with everyone at the show. You forget how much fun those little bars can be when youve been in a tour bus for 4 years. It was awesome.

Mendez and I went to see the new Robert Redford (who is one of my all time favortite actors by the way) film, Lions for Lambs. It was stunning. If you are having a bad day don't go see it because it is really heavy. It was perfectly acted in my opinion.

The Blue October tour is over in two days. Hard to believe we have been out with them for 8 weeks. Thanks to everyone who has come to the shows. It has really been a fun tour for all of us. Now its off to Japan to play with Linkin Park. We are so excited. The shows are going to be massive."

Ben,
Today you’re 27 years and it’s amazing that this child on the picture became the person that we all respect and love. You began the band that we adore e we wanna thank you for that. Every note, every sound and every jump on the stage.
It’s sad that you don’t belong to Yellowcard anymore, but we’ll always remember the energy you have.
Happy Birthday and have a unforgettable day!

It's been a while since the band went to a TV show. I think the last one was on MTV Live Canada. So, check an fan video of Ocean Avenue.



The band plays almost everyday on shows. A day after, there are lots of fan videos on YouTube, like this one from cruzjay05.
