December 31, 2000

Even though "Spiritual Machines" has only been out since December 12th, they managed to slip into the Edge 102's Top 102 CD's of 2000 at Number 15!  In addition, "Happiness..." was released in 1999 but  it still made it on the #40 spot. The results were generated by fan votes!  Great work people!

 

In today's edition of the Edmonton Sun, the paper has included a section on "Noteworthy Moments" of the year 2000.  OLP's recent concert at Dinwoodie Lounge on December 3, placed 3rd in Edmonton's top 10 concerts of the year.  Read the entire article here.

Oli Goldsmith was kind enough to email us to confirm the second version of the "In Repair" video fans are talking about, "as I see you guys have noticed, there is a revised 'final' version of the video airing now... it actually has changes and enhancements throughout, but the new ending is the easiest to spot"  Be sure to drop by backyardcircus.com and see Oli's great work!
 

This "final" version of the video actually aired today at 5:04 pm EST during MuchMegaHits on MuchMusic, which according to their schedule grid, means that it may be reaired at 11:04 pm EST tonight.  Watch for it to air after a Matt Good Video.

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

 

Drop by n3tv for a tidbit on Ray Kurzweil that was featured on City TV this weekend.  Watch City TV on Thursday at 11:35pm EST, or Saturday at 8:30pm EST for a possible repeat.  Thanks to Leveloff for the scoop.

 

Geddy Lee's solo project "My Favorite Headache" featuring Jeremy Taggart as a guest on one track has been released.  The track "Home on the Strange", is a fast paced rock song that showcases Jeremy's versatility and skills.  Drop by musicplayer.com to download a sample of the great track.

 

December 23, 2000 (Afternoon)

"In Repair" checks in at #18 on Le Decompte De Musique Plus.  Thanks to Valerie for the info!

 

Our Lady Peace chart at #1 on the Soundscan Alternative and Metal categories.  Also be sure to chack out the city by city charts!  Overall, they placed an impressive #5 in the top 100 albums.  

Read what Soundscans "Chart Talk" had to say: "Even though this Toronto group's last two albums went all the way to No. 1, this album's chances of reaching the top spot seem more remote given the competition at this time of the year. Nevertheless, this album does give us something to think about. It's inspired by Ray Kurzweil's "The Age of Spiritual Machines: When Computers Exceed Human Intelligence," a book that describes the author's belief that the computer will ultimately dominate our lives and become our teacher and companion. Lead single, "In Repair" has already charted in the top five of the Rock chart." Thanks to Rob once again for the heads up!

Yesterday on Muchmusic's Rapid Fax:  OLP VS. MATT GOOD
When it comes to the end of the year, everyone always does “best of” material that’s powerful and uplifting. When they got together to talk about what they wanted to do for the year in review, they thought that “positive and uplifting” was boring. So all week long, they've decided to put together the best fights, scraps, rivalries, and trash-talking of the year, all of which will be compiled into one bad-ass half-hour this weekend on Fax called “The Battles of 2000”.  Yesterday, Muchmusic kicked it off with one of the best all Canadian rivalries of the year… Our Lady Peace versus Matthew Good. And don’t forget to visit MuchMusic.com to vote in their online year end “Battles of 2000” poll. They're letting you choose the biggest brawl of the new millennium, so head online and hammer your fist into the keyboard! Thanks to Jonathan for the news!

OLP were on  Rapid Fax today!  Here are the details... Our Lady Peace are off and running with their small club tour of the country in support of their new album, Spiritual Machines. Our Chris Nelson had a chance to meet up with Raine and Jeremy at the tour’s launch in Vancouver to talk about the concept album, the author that inspired it, and a future where humans are subservient to computers. OLP play The Factory in Calgary tonight and The State in Regina tomorrow. Tune in to Rapid Fax on Saturday for a possible repeat!!!

 

Wondering what to expect at the OLP Club shows?  Check out the setlist from the Edmonton show.  Thanks to ClumsyGirl for the list.

We received an email from a fellow fan named Doug, who states that Raine mentioned during the concert in Edmonton that they are dedicating "Thief" to a boy named Robert Taylor from Vernon British Columbia, that was in a nearly fatal car crash.  This is most likely the same boy that the band was reported to be visiting when they added the extra show in Vancouver on December 2nd!  What a great bunch of guys!

 

Check out this week's Soundscan Charts!  OLP aren't doing that great this week on the charts but wait until their fourth CD, "Spiritual Machines" comes out next week!!! 

 

December 3, 2000
OLP played an exclusive show at the Vernon Recreation Centre in BC last night. This show was sponsored by a local college and approximately 700 people were in attendance. The band played for about 2 hours and included similar setlists to those they performed at the Ontario campuses in November (see our tour info page for reviews and setlists for two of these shows). One difference was that OLP covered "Eternal Life" instead of "Needle and The Damage Done" (which even though it was on the setlist, they didn't end up playing at the Ontario dates.) . According to some security guards, the band had decided to do this show because they were in the area visiting a kid in the hospital who had been in a car accident. Thanks to Megan who attended the show, for the news!!!  

 

December 2, 2000

These news highlights in from Julia8110 from the CC who attended the Vancouver show and press conference last night:  

 

1.  OLP performed 23 songs at the concert which included songs from all four albums

2.  There is a bonus track on the new CD which lives up to OLP's tradition of 11 tracks per album

3.  OLP will be taking a month break after this small club tour in Canada and then will be hitting the states for a big tour when their CD is released there (due to this, March 13, 2001 may not be the correct release date for their CD) and then they will probably be back in Canada in the Summer.  

4.  OLP will not be doing Summersault this year!

 

Check out Jam Showbiz for an article and picture of Raine and Chantal regarding their upcoming movie appearance.  There is even mention of a new song put together by Raine and Chantal!  Thanks to Rob, and Rick (olp-uk.com) for the heads up!

November 27, 2000 (Evening)

Last night was the end of Our Lady Peace's 4 club warm up that took place at schools in Southern Ontario.  Although we knew of these shows, we were strictly asked to not advertise them as they were all closed shows for students only.  We are sorry we could not post the info, but our hands were tied. We were lucky enough to be Alumni of one of the schools and have a good friend invite us as guests to last nights amazing experience!  The night started off great when we stopped into a Tim Horton's Donuts about 20 minutes from Wilfrid Laurier University and were surprised to see Mike and Jamie in the lineup behind us!  We had an interesting conversation, wished them well at the show, and were on our way.   The performance was even better than the Mohawk experience, although the crowd pushed us a little harder into the front row barricades.  But the bruises were well worth it.  The show ended 2 hours later and we managed to talk a tech into giving us Raine's setlist.  We then lounged around the school for a while to rest before our drive home.  Then as we were going down the back stairway to the car, we bumped into Mike and Jamie again!  Two times in one night!  What Luck!  So we had another interesting conversation about anything and everything, and had our setlist signed.  It was a great night, and we are really sorry we couldn't of let more of you know of the event.  The club tour is not far off....so hopefully you will have your own stories to tell real soon!  Pictures of the show will be posted sometime soon as we met some great people who have offered to contribute!

Rumours are hot and heavy on the Clumsy Congress these days!  Mike Turner dropped into the New Album discussion room and left two messages.  The first read the following, "The Age of Spiritual Machines; When Computers Exceed Human Intelligence. by Ray Kurzweil".  This post confused the people of the bulletin board, as it appeared as though he spammed the topic.  After many people questioned his post, he replied with, "The post wasn't spam. You'll see."

Excerpt
 

What relevance does this interesting book have on the New CD?  Is it associated with the title?  Is it part of the theme?  Or is Mike just pulling the wool over our eyes? It is for you to decide on this weeks Our Lady Peace, Fact or Fiction!

 

October 7, 2000

"Thief" drops from #12 to #26 on the Muchmusic Countdown.

Don't forget to check out olp.com's latest Web Cam, as Mike passes the camera off to Duncan!  The following list summarizes last night's recording,

*  Mike strums around on his guitar the following Catchy Lick (sound familiar?)

*  We get a taste of the presidential debate as Duncan and Arnold watch it on the tube

*  Mike is the coffee making dude of the house

*  Two of the others helping out at the studio are named Angelo and Rob

*  Jamie mixes in some keyboards with some cool guitar riffs for another Song Clip.

*  Most interesting news is that Matt Cameron, previously of Soundgarden, but now drummer for Pearl Jam, will be in the studio helping with some drums due to Jeremy's recent injury to his leg.  Duncan felt sad for Jeremy, but also excited to play with Matt.  Watch for tomorrows web cam for possible footage.

 

October 6, 2000 (Morning)

Looks like OLP are touring in November!!!!  Woo hoo!  If you didn't already know how caring and wonderful the band was before, you will after reading this post from Mike in the OLP newsgroup (alt.music.ourladypeace):  

 

Hi Brendan,

    I just read your post concerning your upcoming surgery and wanted to wish you well. I can speak for the other guys very clearly when I say that we wish you the best, and hope you make a speedy recovery. I'm glad  that you enjoyed the shows at Auburn Hills and Windsor. I remember the  Windsor show really well, I kept starting to have fun but then the sound bouncing off of the back of the arena would confuse me and I'd end up pissed off! By the end of the show I was mad as hell because it was the last show of the tour and I wasn't happy to end it like that. That's why I threw my favorite guitar (Tom Anderson Hollow T classic) about 40 ft over the back of my amps. Thank goodness it survived with only a couple  of chips! I hope that you have as vivid memories of the show and that, in some small way you can think of that rather than dwelling on your  recovery. E-mail me when you're feeling better, we'd love to meet you at  our next show in the area, which should be in November. Until then, take good care of yourself

Mike Turner
Our Lady Peace

We wish to thank Leah and Rob for informing us of the above news!  

 

October 6, 2000 (Very Early Morning)
We have combined 5 clips of the new song that we felt were audible enough to record  from yesterdays web cam, and recorded them onto one mp3.  They are recordings that can be heard in the background, as Mike tours the Arnyard.  As a fellow OLP fan, I am sure you are dying to get a taste!  The file is 3 megs, so please be patient.  Enjoy! 

 

Other notable tidbits that were revealed during the web cam were,

*  Jeremy has a bum leg due to some recent accident.

*  They were at the Arnyard Studios with Lanni.

*  The intro to the new song includes a shaker device made out of a beer can.

*  Mike emphasizes reading "The Age of Spiritual Machines" by Ray Kurzweil.

*  Mike also surfed the web to MJGuitar.com that he's fond of.

October 3, 2000

Today's news stems from a recent post on the CC from a newly signed up member using the name (peripheral).  The rumour is, 

  • Recent tour dates that cover Canada's major cities have been announced on pollstar.com for a Ottawa band named Sully.  The venues (mostly theatres) are too big for a band with their popularity.  Who will headline?

  • Our Lady Peace has spoken of wanting to do smaller venues this fall.  Theatres would be a good size that they have not explored yet.

  • The dates start right around the time their first single is to be released.

Although there is no proof, only speculation to back up this news, it sounds like a remote possibility.  So we will let you be the judge, Fact or Fiction?  If you want to help find out if this is true or not, call the theatre in your area and ask if OLP and Sully will be playing.  Then, please contact us so that we can let others know what is going on with this tour. Thank you!
