Barely Worth A Mention

Does It Offend You, Yeah? - If you pre-ordered Epic Last Song and you're wondering where the hell your signed poster is: the single was posted out by the label, and the posters are being sent out by the band (because they had to sign them), so they'll come separately.

Johnny Foreigner - New song on Myspace.com/johnnyforeigner called Lea Room. It's your typical loud Johnny Foreigner song - very nice.

Those Dancing Days Video

Here's the videos for Those Dancing Days' new single, 'Run Run' (I think). It's a new song.

Hadouken! Video & Bolton Date

Here's Hadouken!'s video for 'Crank It Up'. It continues the made-of-paper theme of 'That Boy That Girl'.
