OLP played a private acoustic performance at a radio station in Kansas City, MO
yesterday before their show last night. Fortunately, Aaron was able to
meet the guys and ask a few questions that he has been wanting to ask for quite
a while now. He asked about the three songs that didn't make it onto "Gravity"
and about older unreleased songs like the one that didn't make it on
"Happiness..." as well as songs like "Trapeze," "Sleeping In," "Ordinary Day"
and "Home." In response, Raine said "these things have a way of eventually
finding their way out...and we are actually talking about finishing one of the
three songs (one of the ones that didn't make it onto "Gravity") for the
upcoming "DareDevil" Movie
soundtrack (it's that comic book movie due out on February 14, 2003 with Ben
Affleck). The three songs that were left off were a lot harder edged, similar
to "Whatever," and really didn't fit on the record." In regards to "Trapeze,"
Raine and Jeremy said, "That song is getting pretty old...so I don't know...."
Raine finished by saying, "we've been talking about possibly releasing something
through the fanclub in the future." Thanks to Aaron for passing along this
interesting info to us.
Special thanks to Rob for providing us with a screen capture from "Innocent" for

According to an
article posted on the MTV site about the Billboard's Top Album Chart,
Gravity is moving back up on the charts. Here is what it had to say: "With
the band on a U.S. tour through October 24, Our Lady Peace's Gravity
makes a mighty chart leap from #70 to #51 after seeing an increase in weekly
sales of more than 3,000 copies." Thanks to Brandon, Kyle and John for the
great news.
To see how OLP are doing on a few other charts, click
here.
According to Rich, OLP have
not been getting much airplay in Chicago. Only recently has "Innocent" been
added to Q101's Top 9 at 9 playlist and they
need our votes to stay on this list. The bands that get the most votes (whether
they actually make it into the top nine or not) remain on the stations
playlist. In the past, OLP have not had much exposure on this station, however
we can change all this by ensuring they stay on the playlist. What are you
waiting for, go vote now!
Thanks to Rich for the heads
up.
OLP are featured in Conan O'Brien's

War Child Canada's Media Sponsor MuchMusic,
most KTB marathons will take place in schools and universities across North
America, but everyone - students, teachers, friends, businesses and family - can
participate! And all participants will have the chance to win some great KTB

classic theatre that played host to many legends over the years. For example, A
guitar famously burnt on stage by Jimi Hendrix is likely to become the most
expensive guitar ever sold at auction this month. Hendrix's Fender Stratocaster
Sunburst, thought to be the same instrument that he set fire to at the London
Astoria in 1967, is expected to fetch at least £400,000.

from the Detroit, MI show. Thanks to
Paul,
Jonathon
and Donnie.
Head over to
MTV to read a news article about OLP's show in Detroit, MI. Thanks to
Ryan and Doug for the link.
Check out these comments from an interview with Ryan from Greenwheel who gives
props to OLP:
You have toured with artists like Flickerstick and Our lady peace. It must have
been very inspiring?
Ryan: Very much so. Touring with bands like OLP, Flickerstick, Default, and
Injected really taught us a lot about the road. Things to do, and a few things
to not do, but mainly just the attitude to the whole thing. We have been blessed
with being put out with artists who have their heads on straight and have their
priorities.
Which modern rock act are you most amazed of?
Ryan: The Vines I like a lot. OLP amazes me. I've been a fan since Naveed
and the records that they make are always new and refreshing. They push
themselves to new limits each record. That also goes for Radiohead and Tool. Who
in my opinion are geniuses! The Queens of the Stoneage are amazing. And of
course The Chili Peppers who never cease to amaze me.
To read the whole
interview, go here.
Thanks to Tom for sending this our way.
According to BWK,

and take a look at the
setlist
from last night's show in Detroit, MI. Thanks to Brandon and Tim for
sharing these with us.
Attention OLP fans!!! A fellow fan, Christal has written to us about a
concern about this week's OLP Streetteam request to vote for OLP on TRL via the
telephone. Unfortunately, she feels that many of OLP's votes are being lost.
Here is what is happening when she tries to call in and vote for OLP: When
she finally gets through, the phone is automated and asks you to enter the first
three letters of the video you' would like to request. So as she types in
"SOM" to request "Somewhere Out There", it says "thanks for voting for
'SOMETIMES' by the Strokes and it hangs up. Then when she calls back to request
the ARTIST, when she enters the first three letters, (OUR) it says 'thanks for
voting for the band 'OURS' and hangs up. Is anyone else encountering this?
For now, we suggest that if you are having this problem with the telephone
voting, that you head over to the
MTV TRL page and vote
for OLP there (you must go to the end of the page and add OLP's "SOT" since the
Video is no longer on the Countdown.) Thanks to Christal for making us aware of
this problem and we hope it fixes itself soon.
The song "Somewhere Out There" as well as the song and band's name has been
spotted on a commercial for ABC's show, "Alias." Thanks to Vpresben for
the info.
Head to the Charts page and see how OLP are doing on
Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks and Billboard's Adult Top 40. Thanks to April for

Tonight on WWE RAW (a wrestling show), they aired
a brief music
video tribute to a wrestler named Jeff Hardy. This desire as it is
called, showcases one of the wrestlers and what it means to him to be a
wrestler. The music used for Jeff Hardy's desire was OLP's "Not Enough". WWE
gave credit before and after the video, showing the song title and album cover
on the screen which means that the "Gravity" CD was advertised twice.
This is great
exposure for the band to a new crowd that may not have been into Our Lady Peace
in the past, despite "Whatever" being featured on one of the WWE's soundtracks.
Thanks to Nunofreak, Josh, Brandon, Wes and Nadia for the info.

OLP's
"Somewhere Out There is being heard on Kink FM!
This is a commercial station that only plays alternative/rock music. The fact
that OLP is being played means the station likes the music. Other stations
usually only play songs that the record companies ask them to. It is great to
hear that not only are they playing the song but "Somewhere Out There" was also
on Kink Fm's Outlaw 41 chart. It made it's debut on the chart on August 19th at
#33, then it moved up to #24 and at #27 before falling off the charts. The Kink
Fm site even had some info about OLP and their success in Canada and the United
States. Thanks to Eelco den Boer for the news.
It really does seem that
Sony Music is trying to promote OLP more in Europe. "Somewhere Out There" is
also on the playlist of MTV Holland. Two weeks ago Eelco saw it for the first
time. Viewers could vote if they found the video Hot or Not and 57% voted Hot.
So, OLP is making fast progress in Holland and it looks good for their concert
in November. Thanks again to Eelco den Boer for keeping us informed.

Katrillion. Also while you are there read two articles on the band.

Canadians Our Lady Peace have been crafting top-drawer post-grunge radio
rock with class and style for five albums now, and it's time they had their
moment in the spotlight. This is possibly the best chance they've had.
Corey: "These are actually pretty damn good, let's hear it. Oh, it's one of
those slow, sombre ones for when you're sitting in the pub going, 'Oh, life
sucks...'. It's pretty emo. I can't stand crap like Creed, but this is
alright."
Joey: "I probably wouldn't reach to put this on. It's okay for what it is,
but I would never buy it. They're obviously good at what they do."
Isn't singer Raine Maida quite a heartthrob back in the States?
Corey: "Let's see the sleeve again ... I wouldn't go down on him. And I
wouldn't let him go down on me either. Not without my mask ... On him!"
Thanks to Susie for this review.
Great news! OLP has had
their single 'somewhere out there' played on commercial radio stations in
Australia. The song has been heard on 103.1 power fm Ballarat and people are
requesting it! Thanks to Emily for letting us know about this.

single "Innocent." Drop them a line
here and give them your feedback. Thanks to Stacy for passing this
along to us.
By the sounds of it, Muchmusic
played an OLP Spotlight yesterday. Must have been a last minute switch as

Video shoot for "Innocent" video
Our Lady Peace are
taking a break from their busy tour schedule to shoot the video for their new
single, "Innocent," this week. While we can't divulge too many details about the
video, we can tell you that it's being shot over three days in Toronto and that
it will be directed by Tryan George. But what is it about, you ask? In Tryan's
own words, it's about "that small moment that happened yesterday. You know, the
one that you forgot - and similar to the one that will happen today at some
point, and probably tomorrow - was beautiful, but now it's gone. It's that
f***ed up fleeting quality of life."

interesting tidbit of info that was sent to us from Nunofreak: "Our Lady

Well, Kay Hanley is the former lead singer of Letters To Cleo. Her husband is

playing rhythm guitar for Our Lady Peace on tour. Mike Eisenstein also plays on
"Cherry Marmalade", which is very good just in case you're wondering." Thanks

There is a really good chance that Our

Red Hot Chili
Peppers in Australia and Japan. We received an email from a fan saying
he heard the rumour, and when speaking with the band and crew after the shows in
Cleveland and Pittsburgh, they did mention possible upcoming dates in Australia
and Japan, and it so happens the Chili Peppers will be there too. So there
may be some truth to this rumour. However, it is still just a rumour until
announced officially. Watch our tour section for

Planning on attending tonight's concert at
Cleveland's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? So are we! Look for us, and
say hi!
We'll both be wearing black shirts, Rich's has a dragon on it, and we will be
with two other girls. Audiovent is planning to take the stage at 9:00, and Our
Lady Peace at 10:30. Some disturbing information we were told by an
employee of the venue is that because it is being videotaped, MTV will be
handpicking 45 people from the line-up and letting them in first for the front
row. So if you don't meet MTV's "look", you will miss out on front row
regardless if you camped in the line for hours. That is totally unfair, but
doesn't surprise us.
Please note: The interview on 92.3 Xtreme Radio
today with Duncan and Jeremy will be aired at 1 pm instead of 2 pm, and should
run about 30 minutes.
Check out these
photos
taken at the Electric Factory in Philadelphia on August 13, 2002. Thanks
to Parker for sharing.
There is a rumour that on September 24th Our Lady Peace will release a "live" 4
track bonus value cd, with one track being Starseed. The recently released
Australian Gravity also had a bonus cd.
It's likely going to be the same. Also, considering they are playing in
Birmingham that day, we are guessing you will be able to
purchase their cd with the bonus cd and possibly a meet-and-greet autograph
session. Please be aware that none of this is confirmed, and is all just a
possibility. Thanks to Eric for the scoop.

vote for Aimee Allen to be booted out so that Our Lady Peace stay for next weeks
battle. Then at 9 P.M. they will play the two songs (Innocent and Aimee
Allen's "Revolution"), and from 9-9:50 P.M. they take calls as to which song
should be booted off the station Survivor-style. Remember when voting that you
are not voting FOR Our Lady Peace, but rather to boot Aimee Allen. So you want
to select the song OLP is going up against rather than selecting the OLP
song. It's basically done as a Survivor clone. If OLP wins, they face a new
challenger tomorrow. Thanks to Josh for the news.

Here are some interesting tidbits of info that was posted by JPS12 on the CC
after speaking with Raine at the Chicago, IL show:
~ the band is planning to shoot a video for "Innocent"
soon and the concept could be that the viewer would see the video through the
eyes of a continuously moving camera. Basically, similar to Prodigy's
video for "Smack My B**ch Up" and the Foo Fighters "My Hero" video.
~ Regarding the live album they spoke about before the "Gravity" release,
Raine said they have 3-4 tracks ready and they would be released this fall
sometime as part of a package, or bonus tracks. These may be the tracks that are
included on the Australian release of the "Somewhere Out There" single as seen
in our discography singles page.
~ As for tour plans, Raine mentioned that they would be touring Canada
this fall and returning to the US in the spring for more shows.
Thanks to Rob for forwarding this post to us and to JPS12 for the info.
Request OLP on 106.5 The End

the untimely demise of Crazy Town, Our Lady Peace, Linkin Park and The Strokes."

Whew! Great show....but we are
tiiiiirrreeeddd! Arrived home at 3:30am, have to awake for work at 6:30am,
so safe to say today is going to be a long day for the both of us. But was
it worth it? Of Course!!! The show rocked! We originally
planted ourselves front-row-centre, watched the band do some setting up...but
didn't even make it through the opening bands due to the rough crowd. We
ended up wimping out and asking security to pull us over the barricade. We
should of known better at an outside venue. We then moved around to the 19+
section where the fans were somewhat better. We eventually found a good
side view, and enjoyed an amazing show. We snagged a setlist, and met all
but Duncan after the show, and for the first time, were able to have a very
interesting and long conversation with Raine. We will fill you all in
later with the details, and a bunch of photos. Sorry...off to work.

OLP were on
Muchnews about 2:15 pm EST
today. Here is what it was all about: OLP Back To Basics With Bob Rock
Our Lady Peace are back with their 5th studio album, ‘Gravity,’ but this time
around they tried something different. They decided to work with a new producer,
but not just any producer, it was Bob Rock. MuchMusic’s Rick Campanelli sat down
with the guys to chat about the latest album and recording with someone new.
Lead singer Raine Maida explained why they chose Bob Rock, who has worked with
artists like Metallica, Motley Crue and The Cult. “We needed to get to a place
where we were just musicians again and just totally getting amped on playing
music and recording it. And Bob just has this great way to make you record stuff
live off the floor, and not do what we’ve been used to doing which is like
overdubbing to death and always adding layer after layer,” said Maida. “He’s
like, ‘let’s not add all these layers and let’s just make the songs sound great,
just the four of you guys playing it.’ Now it’s just about four guys and it’s
rock n’ roll.”
If you missed it, like we did, be sure to tune into Muchnews this
weekend for a possible repeat. Thanks to Nadine for the info.
