>>> 13/03/06 - Virginia?

email just recieved:


"I go to the University of Virginia here in the states, and I have a friend who's on the committee that brings bands and shows to our school, and he swears to me that Brand New just accepted our bid to headline our
Springfest show on April 15.  That would make sense since they seem to be doing a few college shows on the east coast in april."


Calling it now. Brand New UK exclusive.

This is unconfirmed but yet another tour date possiblity.

I shall leave the informant anonymous for now unless they wish to be named.




>>> 02/03/06 - Salve Regina Update


"To date, we have not signed the contract, but we're working towards having Brand New perform on our campus in April.  It's a closed show; however, I suspect we will open ticket sales to non-Salve individuals one week prior to the show date (at least that is what we have done in the past)."


This is the latest on the Salve Regina University gig.

This is a Brand New UK EXCLUSIVE. You heard it HERE first!





>>> 28/02/06 - 1 of 2 confirmed




Just for those of you too lazy to go the Brand New myspace, the John Hopkins gig is now on there and listed as being an official upcoming show.

Rumour scouts have spotted another Brand New appearance at Salve Regina University. Scroll down to April 21st on this page .

Please note this is uncomfirmed currently.

Remember, any information on BN shows will be listed first on the official site...don't believe it until you see it here!' - source


Yes it's true. Unlike with the whole theory about the Missouri show, this one has been collected from the official street team page.

Brand New are back. > talk about this in the forum <

>>> 09/02/06 - Quest Info

MP3 Quest is finally explained!. I have finally posted a little section which explains how the Quest works. Click Other>MP3 Quest to view the details.

Apologies for the lack of updates but to be honest, nothing much has been happening lately, once again it's all gone quiet. I am slowly working on 'Quest 2' and another website so until something happens it's hard to find things to post.

Just letting you know BNUK is still alive and kicking.




>>> 26/1/06 - The Aftermath


It happened. The demos have leaked but that is all that i need to say in this post. Any further talk is going on in the forum but i need to point out that NO demos shall be shared on the forum!. It is merely somewhere they can be discussed 'sharing is illegal, talking about them isn't'

As far as Brand New UK goes, it's business as usual, with an extra update to come, in light of the demos.

- Lyrics of the new demos are being compiled fully and shall be posted

Other than that, welcome to the 20+ new members we have got on the forum in the past few days and i hope once the demo talk dies down you do not lie like lions in the sand and forget to post.

>>> 20/1/06 - Rumour Scouts Are Out In Force

Rumours say that the album will be released in August, bit of a wait to go if this is true.

>>> 20/1/06 - Judge For Yourself

Ok i've posted a thread in the forum which should give all of the main rumours/facts about the demos and then you can judge for yourself how real they are. To view it click here

>>> 14/1/06 - Lying Like Lions Out In The Sand

University work done and the perfect time for rumours/demos to start flying around. If you watch the bnuk forum or a thread in AbsolutePunk.net then you'll know about the "Brand New demos" that CEO of AbsolutePunk.net, Jason Tate is said to have in his posession.


Posted by a member in the forum:


Sometime this evening Jason Tate (CEO/founder of absolutepunk) posted this in his journal:

Promising. For those of you who don't remember, "We'll be lying like lions out in the sand..." are the lyrics to the "new" song Jesse played last march at a Dashboard benefit show in cali.

* Jason Tate's last.fm account (http://www.last.fm/user/jasontate/) had him listening to a lot of bn, including tracks with no names (i.e. "Brand New- Track 1")

* Tate starts a thread entitled "Album of the Year", in which he asks people who he thinks will put out the best album of '06. While listening to Brand New.

I am currently awaiting confirmation as to if the demos have leaked or been released and will keep you up to date. This could be what we have all been hoping for or the break-up rumour all over again.

>>> 9/1/06 - Lack Of Updates

no brandnewuk is not dieing, merely having a break whilst this university work and cover art work is in progress.

For this i apologise but my other main interest is cover art for bands and i am swamped with pieces of that to do currently, please head over to CoverT Media to find out all about it.

I also have a friends website to make and the PANIC! In The UK site to make. Basically things are pretty busy at the moment. I will try and keep this updated as muc has i can, but currently there really isn't much
news other than it is rumoured that Brand New are still in the studio recording.

>>> 1/1/06 - bnukVideos Launch

bnukVideos launches on the forum.

Same system, all new videos to collect. Head on over to the forum for details.

>>> 1/1/06 - Welcome To 2006

Welcome to 2006. All new year, once again promising a new release from Brand New, but lets not get too excited just yet. For now we will treasure what we have in the form of the masterpieces Deja Entendu and Your Favorite Weapon.

Hope all had a good New Years Eve and have a good year to follow.

>>> 27/12/05 - Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year

Merry Christmas to you all. I apologise for the delayed holiday greeting but as i mentioned in another post, uni work is still to do. All to be handed in during January so expect more details on the new MP3 Quest soon.

Alas no Holiday EP from Brand New either. I am sure we will hear from them soon...but don't hold me to that.





>>> Actions Speak Louder Than Words Ever Could

Please sign this petition to try and get Brand New UK listed as the official uk website for Brand New.

>>> 07/12/05 - Updated MySpace

Brand New's MySpace has had a strange and in my oppinion slightly disturbing change to it. Under the 'About brandnew' it now reads simply 'wake up! wake up! you are going to die!'. Also the main image for them has changed to a faded greeny looking photo of the guys playing somewhere. See for yourself here
