First off, HAPPY THANKSGIVING. I’ll be celebrating my first ever Thanksgiving today

Sorry for the lack of updates… I’ve been on vacation in LA for a while now, unfortunately I have to go home Saturday… But what better way to end your vacation than going to see Rooney?

I usually don’t do this, but I got the chance to see 100 Monkeys (among a bunch of other bands ), and seriously if you get a chance to go to one of their shows, GO! They’re amazing live.

Another great band is Crash Kings who’ll be on the Wild One tour with Rooney. Their album “Crash Kings” is really good, so check them out before you catch a show on this tour. You can get the track “It’s Only Wednesday” for free, if you just post a tweet about it via this website.

All the tourdates for the Wild One Tour should be up in the Tour dates section now, including ticket info. If Rooney plays a show near you, head out and support them

There’s a couple of contests where you can win tickets to the show @ El Rey on Friday.
URB MAG : the contest is open until midnight tonight (Thursday)
Radio Free Silverlake : the contest is open until noon Friday

WILD ONE STREAMING. There’s clips of all the songs from the Wild One EP up on Rooney-band.com, go listen to them now. I gotta say, I think it sounds amazing

Robert now has his own private twitter – rcschwartzman

Rooney did the Pablove Benefit on Nov 21. This is an amazing benefit, and you should read about it on Pablove.org

Here’s some pictures from the benefit

Hey Friends,

Hope your Halloween was fun. I’m writing to let you know we’re going on tour next month and we’ll need you’re help promoting the shows. It’s always hard to get the word out that we’re on tour. I’ve heard people complain about not knowing about a show in his/her town. It’s always effective to think of the various ways you’ve heard about a tour coming to your town. Coffee shop windows, indie record stores, college campus, etc. There’s always a good spot for a tour poster. Also, there are lots of ways to make noise online. I’m not hip to all the ways, but things are growing and changing so rapidly, the “DIY” approach is more effective than ever. We’re one of the few bands in this world that has a dedicated fan base who take things to a new level, the street team. Most fans don’t want to go above and beyond and help a band he/she loves. Thank you for helping and being apart of our bands future. We do recognize the work you do for us and appreciate the time you invest. Hopefully, our band will continue to grow and appeal to newer fans and recruit new street team members. Please come and say hello at the shows; it’s nice to connect with you face to face.

If you are not already a member of the Rooney Street Team, please join to stay updated.

In case you haven’t seen it, I’ve added a lot of tourdates. Sorry about not posting about that before, I seem to forget to post because I tweet There should be more tourdates soon.

I’m very curious to know if anyone is going to any of the shows, post a comment here or tweet me? Remember we always love to see pictures and/or videos from the shows, so please don’t hesitate to send some

On another note, it seems like the EP Robert talked about will be out in November. Hopefully in the beginning, but who knows My guess is that they’ll bring them when they go on tour (and hopefully have them up in their new merch store).

I’m a little late on posting this, sorry but I’ve been very busy

Wellesley College…get ready to rumble.

Happy Birthday to Louie. Hope he’s having a great day

Join us on the Rooney forum and tell us a bit about yourself… It’s to boring over there at the moment.. It’d be great to get a bit of life over there again

“Hey Everybody,

I thought you’d like to know that after 7 years with hair down to my shoulders, I decided to cut it all off. I’m liking the change. It’s easy to shampoo and dry and it smells fresh and clean. I asked for “kid hair,” you know, the kind that bounces and belongs on the playground. Anyway, my friend Coury from Castledoor hooked me up and she’s been an angel through this process. Oh and, the stock markets up too…

Hope y’all are doing well. New album coming soon…or at least some new music. I’m happy than I appear to be in this picture.

RS”

Rooney-band.com is all new. Do you like the new website? Everyone will need to sign up in the forum, it’s brand new and all the old screennames couldn’t be transfered… So consider it a fresh start.
I think Miranda has done a great job

Some people (like myself) can’t see the new website yet, but hang in there, it should change in the near future.
