We finally heard back from Now & Then Records in England. The guy apologized for not getting back to us, as his wife gave birth over the holidays!

Anyway, he's sending over a contract that we have to have our lawyer take a look at. He's suggesting recording three or four new songs, remixing "Darkest Hour" and issuing the repackaged version.

Once again, keep your fingers crossed....let's hope the contract is a good one, and that we'll be able to financially support our families enough to tour.

At long last...a ray of hope! :D Man...3 or 4 more songs added to Darkest Hour would be incredibly awesome :cool: You know I'm always pulling for the band's success! :) And if our lil project goes over well, maybe even be a part of that success eventually! :D

OMG OMG OMG!!! **Crosses fingers, toes (yes, I can ;)), and eyes!! Even getting buc to braid my hair, so it will be crossed!**

Good luck, Pagan and Taz!! I hope it all works out just the way you've dreamed it would. Pagan, my husband says if I come backstage to meet you, he must be present. :rolleyes: LMAO!! Like I would be naughty! :angel:

Good Luck Pagan and Taz.

I know you guys must have spent many days and nights dreaming that special dream, and I hope that your dream is soon realized.
You guys know that everybody here at the 80sxchange is pulling for you two.

The "Darkest Hour" is already a great CD and if the other four cuts that the label wants added to it are as good as whats there now, the album will be AWESOME!...Absolutely AWESOME!!!

I was just kidding, Pagan. Sorry. My hubby knows all about you. Nothing to fear, there. I guess I should have specified that, but I figured you knew! ;) :smooch: I'd be alone, believe you me! LOL

Many days and nights? How about over 20 years, Sarge bud! However, my hopes are not too high. It's a fickle business and I've been let down many times before, so I take it as it comes until something tangible is in my hands.

The new songs we're already writing are leagues ahead of anything that's already on "Darkest Hour". The new stuff is a little but darker (no pun intended) and a little more musically inclined. It actually worries me a little about mixing them in with what's on the CD already. Hopefully the new stuff isn't so far removed from what's there already that the CD won't flow smoothly.

We know everyone's pulling for us, that's why we'll try to get a bunch of your names in the thank you columns!

Hmmmm....now let me go dream up the ways that Taz will owe me & my singer, should this pan out, for bringing him into the fold! :devil: :banger:

If the club allows us to videotape, I'll post how to get it after the show. As for the CD, go to amazon.com and do a search for LIVESAY. The CD's called "Darkest Hour".

Mileage? LOL....no comment. :sneaky: I'll just say I'm Italian and leave it at that! :naughty:
