I haven’t updated here in a while, however if you follow me on twitter I have been updating a little there.

There’s a couple of things I wanted to let you know about.

Rooney will be touring in Germany in October. All the dates are up here as well as on Rooney-band.com. Tickets can be bought via artisttickets.com. This is the first time Rooney is touring in Europe since spring 2008, so make sure you go to a show if you can make it.

Taylor Locke & the Roughs are playing 2 shows in September. One in Las Vegas on the 17th and in LA on the 18th. You can see information about both shows under tourdates or if you visit tlatr.com.

Matt, Taylor and Ned (yes, I said MATT) will be joining Bleu & Mike Viola at 11pm (show starts at 9pm) for a special night with friends on September 22nd at the Hotel Cafe. Chris Price from Taylor Locke & the Roughs will also be joining them.

I don’t know if you’ve heard it, but at the very last Hanson/Rooney show, Rooney came out while Hanson played Mmmbop. At the very end of the video Taylor jumps head first into the crowd (at 6:20). Kudos Taylor, hope you didn’t hurt anyone

Thanks to PortalHansonBR for uploading the Hanson Live Stream video and Get Your Rooney Wisdom for posting the link.

Here’s the videos from the live stream that Rooney did with Hanson the other day.

Check out Ned’s brand new website NedBrower.com

You can listen to samples of his new solo album called “Great to Say Hello” – and then you should decide to buy it

It doesn’t seem like it’s up on itunes yet, but you can buy a physical copy via “Ned->Direct” (paypal). The CD is only $10 and shipping seems to be $2, at least in the US.

Can I just say that I love that the guys are doing all these side projects? Not only does that give us more to listen too, but I love the fact that I actually love the music they’re making

Have you ordered your copy of Eureka yet?
Otherwise, pre-order your copy from Amazon today.

The pre-orders Rooney had up earlier shipped two days ago, and I know at least one person already got it.
So hopefully everyone who ordered it already have it by June 8. A day to celebrate

Rooney will be on the radio – Kruz 97.5 – on June 6th from 6-7pm. They’ll be playing an acoustic performance.
If you don’t live anywhere you can get that station, you can tune in and listen to it here.

Rooney will be doing an in-store performance at Best Buy in Thousand Oaks on June 8. This takes place at 6pm.

Seems like Rooney will be opening for Hanson this summer.

Robert tweeted this :
“The summer tour is broken into three parts, Rooney headline, then we join up with our friends Hanson, then back to headline dates.”

Anyway, the Hanson part of the tour starts on July 21st – All the tourdates are up on Hanson.net

I hear that there’s a pre-sale starting tomorrow at 10am. The pre-sale is only for Hanson.net members.

MTV has a behind the scenes video from the I Can’t Get Enough video shot.

Gotta love Louie, he always cracks me up.

Thanks to Jacqueline for sending me the link

This interview with Rooney reveals that Rooney’s new album will be called Eureka Kinda fitting if you ask me
(in case you didn’t know, Eureka means something along the lines of “having found it”, it being what you’re looking for)

Interview:
Rooney Steps Back, Regroups For Future

By GARY GRAFF
Of the Oakland Press
 

 It’s been a busy time of transition for Rooney.

The Los Angeles rock quintet left its record company, Interscope, after it wound down touring for its 2008 sophomore album “Calling the World.” Then, it started working on a third album that frontman Robert Schwartzman says “wasn’t exactly the record we wanted to make,” so the group took “a step back” before starting over again in March.

That album, titled “Eureka,” was recently finished, and Schwartzman — the son of actress Talia Shire, brother of actor/musician Jason Schwartzman and nephew of filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola — says Rooney was ready to get out on the road after a long stretch of studio time.

“We’ve been working a lot, recording, and we feel like we haven’t been able to get out and play for our fans,” Schwartzman, 26, says. “We want to get new music out, but we also want to be able to play shows.

“It’s nice for people to get something new from us and come to the shows. It makes it more of an event for us and our fans.”

“Eureka” isn’t due out until next year and will most likely be released independently by the band. To tide fans over, Rooney has put together a four-song EP, “Wild One,” culled from those recording sessions and featuring songs that didn’t make the final cut — but that Schwartzman says are hardly castoffs.

“The record is really diverse, and it shows a lot of different sides to our band and what we can do,” explains Schwartzman, who’s had several acting roles and was a guest vocalist on Demi Lovato’s “Party.” “We recorded 20 or so songs and we kept going back and taking a break and listening to what we had, reapproaching the record with new material.

“As we looked at the big list of songs, some of them didn’t fit together, but they were still great songs. We didn’t want to throw them away, and we saw that we could make a great EP as a piece of work on its own and get people ready for the album, too. That way it won’t feel like such a long time between albums.”
