Makes you wonder how bored they are on the bus. lol :P

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.

Another post with a lot of updates… Thankfully we have a lot of those these days ;)

Absolutepunk.net is streaming “You’re What I’m Looking For” from Eureka – listen to it here.

Altpress.com is streaming “Holdin’ On” from Eureka – Listen to it here.

AP also have a contest up for people in the US where you can win, amongst other things, autographed rollerskates.
Check out the concert here.

There’s a couple of videos up on mtv :

 

Louie talks about the tv show “Lost” (1:12-1:19)

 

Seems like the guys are busy in NY. They’ve been doing some acoustic songs, signed a shitload of Eureka cd’s plus I’m sure there’s lots more on the program.

Rockthestreet (the people who now run the Rooney Street Team) has tweeted these pics/tweets.

Summer Tour

In case you’ve missed it, Rooney is going on tour this summer.
They’ll start out headlining with the bands The Young Veins and Black Gold as openers.
This makes me wish I lived in the US. I love The Young Veins – and I’ve seen Black Gold open for Panic At the Disco once, they’re really good.
At the end of July, Rooney will join the Shout It Out tour opening for Hanson, while they’ll still throw in some headlining shows. All the tourdates that’s been confirmed are up on Rooney-band.com – and I’ve started adding them to RooneyJuice. You can get tickets for most of the shows that Rooney headlines on Rooneytix.com.
If you buy your ticket on Rooneytix.com, you’ll get a signed tour poster with your order.

The Office Sketch

Seems like Taylor and Louie had fun while they were on the set of ICGE

 

 Taylor Locke & the Roughs

Taylor and Chris are currently in the studio recording TLATR’s 2nd album. You can read a little about that on TLATR.com

Taylor has done an interview with the Rock & Roll Report, where he answered a question about Rooney’s new album.

Q: Anything you can tell us about the new Rooney CD coming out later this year?

A: It’s eclectic and cool, and we self-produced it. I’m proud of my contributions and my bandmates’ contributions. We did it at Robert’s home studio, and some at me and Ned’s studio as well. I played lots of slide guitar, which was fun for me. It’s the same good-time Rooney you’re used to, but with a few new twists. Some psychedelia, some jazzy bits, etc. Check it the fuck out!

Thanks to Ale from TLATR.com for that one.

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.
