Greetings.
Unfortunately Lovedrug will be canceling our upcoming shows in Akron and Nashville. We'd all been looking forward to playing some of the new material and are sorry to pull the plug. However the last minute convergence of studio time and various other schedules mean we'll be recording in California at those times.
I'm sure you will all be pleased to hear that producer Michael Beinhorn (Soundgarden, Mew, Korn, Red Hot Chili Peppers) and engineer Eric Stenman (Deftones, Dashboard Confessional) have both signed on for the new record. WeÕve already been doing preproduction and are really excited to get into the studio starting next week and begin putting all these ideas together.
Again, our apologies. We'll keep you updated on the new material and dates to come.

Greetings, in brief, from Lovedrug-land.
First, MTV2 added the "Ghost By Your Side" video this week (odd, as we now only now remember making it). It will be airing a couple times on 'Rock The Deuce' and then a couple more through out the day, or so we're told.
Second, we've been writing a lot and expect to be in the studio proper making a record this summer. Before doing so, however, we've decided to play a couple shows with the new material, sort of let the beasties out of the cage and see what happens in the light of day. The two shows will be:
5/17 Akron, OH @ Musica w/ Winslow
5/31 Nashville, TN @ 12th and Porter w/ Paper Route
We'll put details up on the website, MySpace, as well as Facebook (which we finally got around to setting up so feel free to seek us there).
Thanks everyone for your interest in our music and attention to this cold, electronic replacement of real communication. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

In Appreciation
We wanted to take a minute and thank everyone who has been so generous and kind over the last couple weeks. It may sound a bit odd but this recent run with Sparta and Straylight Run was truly one of the best tours we've ever been on. Certainly we could have done without having all of our stuff stolen and our van and trailer torched. Nevertheless, the amount of charity and love shown by both our fellow musicians and all of you at the shows was overwhelming. We really appreciate all of your thoughts, donations, and encouragement. We'll be taking some time to recover but look forward to seeing you all soon!
cheers,
Lovedrug

Burn Out
The van and trailer were located, sort of. Whoever took it decides to light it on fire after they'd taken everything they wanted. Check out MySpace for pictures.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
hear ye hear ye....
We in Lovedrugland would like to extend to you our most humble apologies for our canceling of three shows. there has been a nasty bug traveling around our tour van since california leaving some in the wake with tonsilitis and severe flu symptoms. this nasty little demon of a bug has finally clasped michael in its dirty grips rendering him unable to perform. we have chosen to rest michael's throat and body to full recovery, thus being forced to cancel three shows. no wories though. we'll be fine and back at it in no time so fear not!
apologetic and hopefull
