Dear friends,
This is the first installment in what will be a year’s worth of news. Some of which you’ll love, some of which you won’t love as much. But, the news you’ll love will overshadow the news you won’t love as much. I promise.
The first big news is…
2008 is the 15th ANNIVERSARY of the Bottle Rockets!!! Happy anniversary and THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us for all these years! Where would we be without you? Certainly not still here FIFTEEN years later! You people are the best.
We have many cool things planned throughout ’08.
Our first official announcement…
There will be FIFTEEN special “15th Anniversary Shows” this year. That’s IT folks. Unless we get some festival, or, opening slot offers we can’t refuse, that’s all ya get.
Here’s the deal…
The anniversary shows will be spread throughout the world, and, will only be announced a few at a time. There will be very worthwhile reasons to attend these shows.
Since we have recently discovered this amazing vehicle known as an AIRPLANE, the shows can and will fall in a totally haphazard fashion. You won’t know where the next batch will be until the first batch is completed.
You WILL get plenty of advance warning so you have time to plan ahead. We’ll make sure the shows are in lovely, exciting locations and only fall on weekends so you can easily vacation with the Bottle Rockets on their 15th ANNIVERSARY!!!
Will we come to your town? Who knows? You can hold out and hope for the best… or get packin’. Fifteen years into this relationship we think it’s your turn to do some of the drivin’. Sounds harsh. But, It’ll be fun. We can’t wait to see you!
More news and the first anniversary show dates will be announced very soon so keep checkin’ in. You just never know what’s gonna happen next ’round here. But, I promise it’s all gonna be good!
Stay tuned…
Brian
