Sloth.

Due to laziness I have not posted anything for a while. Sorry, person that reads this blog.

The Swiss Army Bro-mance 7" is up for sale at the Dashboard Confessional Store.

It should be a green color if the rumors are correct

Edit: The color is black.

Edit 2: The color is maybe be dark green. It is possible the who ever was looking at the records when they posted them on the DC store was looking at them in the dark, and they looked black. I don't really know. A source from Epitaph had said it was to be dark green. The DC store says black. I will let the world know when I get my copy. I hope it turns out to be picture disc with my face on it.

Edit 3: It is mos def Dark Green

proof

I put it by a Tip of the Iceberg black pressing.

"I'm gonna be on tv one day."

I know it's a little late, but Steve put together a video of footage from the tour thus far. Check it.

"It's all about the He said she said bullshit."

Ugh. I know that Brentlee has already posted on this, but I have to weigh in too. I've been with my girlfriend for 5 years, and I've heard people talk shit about our relationship, and I've told them off. So I get where Max is coming from, but, he should have just left it at the fucking tweet. Seriously. Dude, okay we get it. You're pissed about what another person wrote. It's not like he said, "Sherri you twat, you broke my heart and did nothing but make me miserable." He said, "I keep thinking 'bout her, how she hated, everything about me..." This could have been about any single chick he's dated. I understand that you feel your wife is perfect and that she could "do no wrong." But let's face it, this had nothing to do with Chad to begin with, it was about you and your wanting to make a big deal out of nothing. Have fun in the lime light, I hope this is all worth it for you in the end.

Better Late then Never.

I just found this info about the "Swiss Army Bromance 7inch"over at Absolutepunk.net. It

DC songs NFG is covering for the split - Swiss Army Romance, song off of Places (not specific which one)

NFG songs DC is covering for the split - old songs (no names given)

I know It was posted on the 12th over there, I'm sorry that I am slow. please forgive me.

A little birdie told me...

A rumor is floating around about a new ISHC album. Appearenly Chad said something about it. I still can't find his official statement, but if and when I do I will be sure to let everyone know about it. The rumor also says it will be a more serious album. Not sure exactly what that means. Hopefully more news will come soon enough. In the mean time I will be waiting for the NFG Snuggies to show up on the NFG stuff website.


I just can't stand the inconvievence of a normal blanket. I feel so helpless when I end up under one. Thank you Snuggies for making the world safer for cold people.

I am a slacker

I have been slacking on the news as of late. Chad did an interview with with Buzznet. Here is it.

Behind Closed Doors: New Found Glory's Chad Breaks Up With Girls Through Text
When New Found Glory's lead guitarist Chad Gilbert is not out on tour you just might spot him at the movies, on a hike or lounging in the bathtub. Even though Chad is currently taken, ladies take note that Chad will not judge a girl on their booty, but he likes butts and he will not lie.

Buzznet: Do you have a morning bathroom routine? If so what does it entail from when you get out of bed until you are dressed for the day?

Chad: I kind of have a routine. I usually get up around 8 am and go hiking with my upstairs neighbor Toby from H20. When I get back I then take a bath. The hike is a crazy workout on my legs so I’m too lazy to stand up in the shower. I just sit and chill.

Buzznet:Who was your first kiss? Details ... How old were you? Where were you?

Chad: My first make out kiss was when I was in the 5th grade. I lived in an apartment complex called eagles nest. All the kids in the apartment complex were so bored all the time it just seemed like everyone would just cause trouble or hook up. I was hanging out in one of the apartments with friends and this developed 8th grade girl thought it was cute I never made out with anyone so she pushed me on the couch and got on top of me and made out with me. She took her top off to. ha-ha! I was psyched ha-ha. She wanted to teach me how to kiss.

Buzznet: What do you have hanging on your walls in your bedroom? Posters? Artwork?

Chad: I have a painting of Bjork. I have a few framed posters such as The Outsiders, Taxi Driver, and Coal Miners' Daughter. I also have a big collage kind of thing with pictures of all my friends that my girlfriend made me for Christmas.

Buzznet: Do you have any fetishes? Any pet peeves?

Chad: I hate it when people chew with their mouths open. If I can hear people smacking their lips and chomping while eating i tend to rage inside. It grosses me out.

Buzznet: What is the first quality you look for in the opposite sex?

Chad: I like a combo of things. I look at the way a girl eyes squint and shine when she smiles. I’m definitely a booty guy as well but that’s not a quality I first look for, more like an added bonus!

Buzznet: What do you wear to sleep at night?

Chad: I only wear boxer briefs to sleep.

Buzznet: Do you have a nickname?

Chad: I have had tons of nicknames but the most popular is “Chadball”. Madball are friends of mine and my favorite hardcore band so I was given the name.

Buzznet: What was your first job? What was your worst job?

Chad: My first job was at a movie theater. I loved it. I worked there for about 2 and half years. I did everything from tearing tickets to ushering to the concession stand to even popping popcorn upstairs. I would always sneak in tons of friends and sneak free food and drinks. Free movies on off days were rad as well. It did have a few downsides. Popcorn puke did suck to mop up and for some reason when people had diarrhea they couldn't aim right and make it in the bowl. I would gag!

Buzznet: What song do you know every word to, but are totally embarrassed that you know so well?

Chad: 'Man I Feel Like A Woman' by Shania Twain. The melody rules!

Buzznet: What text message or voice mail do you regret sending to someone so much that you will never forget doing it?

Chad: I once was breaking up with a girl and she fully didn't know yet. I was texting a friend about it and I somehow sent the text to the girl. Whoops.

Buzznet: Which era do you most wish you lived in and why?

Chad: I like the style of people back in the rag-time era. It was from 1897 to 1918. It was the first American musical genre.

Buzznet: Do you have any scars? If so what happened? If not name one imperfection on your body?

Chad: I have a chicken pock scar on my right temple. When I was in elementary school I would try to impress the girls and tell them that I got shot by a b-b gun shot me.

Buzznet: If we gave you sourdough bread and you could put anything on your sandwich what would it be?

Chad: Cheese its, peanut M&M’s, turkey, popcorn, French onion dip, lays chips and a garden burger patty.

Buzznet: When you hear the word “oatmeal” what is the very first thing that comes to your mind?

Chad: Breakfast.

Back to the Future. eh? or the Past. I guess. (I never did quite understand why they decided to name it that.)

I like to reminisce about the olden days. The days when music only came out of a magical boxes with buttons and nobs, and no matter which direction you walked, it was always up hill. Yes. the good old days.

Go check out some old New Found Glory news. It will let you go back all the way back to the year 2000.

It is like a time and space anomaly is open in cyberspace and if we aren't able to close it by 2012 we all get sucked in to it. Then we will have to live permanently in the year 2000. hm.

Starting today I am campaigning to protect this time/space hole with all I can offer. Which happens to be a rubber knife and a rusty railroad spike.

Right where we left off...

I guess you could say I am still calming down from the Grammy Awards. NFG and Blink have always been my favorite bands. Well, not always. I was really in to Raffi and Peter, Paul and Mary for a while. Those were my early years. I think maybe NFG and Blink should go on tour together again. Just my opinion.

Now to business. The site has been up for a while now. At this point I would like to ask you guys for some help. What would you like to see on the site? Media? Bios? Dinosaurs? Let us know. We would like to do our best to supply you with a one stop shop for anything NFG. We can't guarantee you everything, but we will try.

Now some new. I am a little slow on this one. sorry. A new webisode is up on their Myspace page. It is Chad vs Steve. Chad would obviously win that battle. Hands down. So yeah, go check it out.

Lastly, I would like to let everyone know about 182online.com. It is a fan site for Blink-182. Ok just call me captain obvious. Well it is run by the same people as plus44online. Good site. Updated constantly. A must visit site for any Blink fan.

A Few Things

Over at the NFG Myspace they have a new webisode up.
How exciting

I got to be honest on this one. After the first webisode, I was hoping to get more like that. The main problem I have is that they are too short. Thats it.

Some new blogs up too on Myspace.

One taking about the tour.
One talking about a contest to win tickets
One talking about the limited edition LTMF 7" vinyl.

Go check out the NFG Stuff forum. GO NOW.
I wish for that forum to become the new NGCS forum or Sincerely Me forum. I miss both of them.

Thats all for today.

NFG Stuff Board

Over at NFG Stuff.com they have a forum now. GO check it out.

A Little Birdie Told Me...

...that http://www.newfoundglorystuff.com will be having a special One Day Only Mystery Box coming up soon.

Peep. Peep.

NFG Stuff

This is currently for sale on the NFG Stuff web page. Click the image check it out.

I bought one. I bet it's full of secrets.

UPDATE: I think they might be all sold out for now. I am not sure. I lets you order it. not sure

Some News Is Better Than No News

A few things.

A new webisode is up on Myspace. Yeah!

On a new podcast from AP you can here a sample from the new album. Go check it on Itunes.

Over at Bridge 9 They have a little sneak peak at the album art for the limited edition vinyl that they will be releasing. go check it out.

And lastly, Japanese Bonus Tracks!!! Why do they always get the bonus tracks. I guess it is just the cool thing to do. "I'm the fool" and "Stay awake" I am sure they will rock. They typically do.

Speace Out.

Ticket Pre-sale To Start on 1-28-09.

Some cities have tickets up for pre-sale on Jan 28th already. go check ticketmaster.com to see if you can get your tickets then. Hopefully all the tour dates will be up for pre-sale then also.

Chad Posts a Blog

Chad posted this blog on the NFG myspace on Sunday

Did anyone watch last nights UFC? Finally a few of my favorite fighters won! Last night I went to some mexican sports cantina place on melrose. I usually stay away from sports bars but when it comes to the UFC i do what is needed to watch them. I cant watch them at home because i don't have cable. Im always on tour so i don't have TV hooked up. Just the XBOX and Dvd. What more do you really need. TV rots your brains. Shows like Dexter, Weeds and the Office i watch on my computer anyways. I hope you all have been enjoying our UFC spoof videos and pictures so far. I have been a fan of mixed martial arts for awhile now and it seemed like a fun way to tie in the whole not without a fight record title. To my knowledge the next video will be put up by epitaph this week then after that there will be one a week. To all you people in Australia and Japan........... I am so damn psyched to come play there again. Soundwave is gonna be nutzzz and Japan is always crazy. Im gonna try to frequently write blogs on here. Steve Klien has a blog already on a website called steveisthereason.tumblr.com. check it!

your friend always,

CHADBALL

It looks like we will be getting a new webisode this week. I think . That is about all for now. No tickets on sale yet. No vinyl preorders yet. I just have to be patient.

Steve's Blog

Steve posted this in a new blog.


J-Dogg had to do some snorkel training for our new video
he looks funny.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1iVKIwo8Qc(this is where we got the idea from)

Hopefully we will be seeing a video for "Listen to your friends" sooner than later.

Jordan Interview

Here is an interview with Jordan. It's too cold in MN today to write anymore. Happy Reading.

Street Team Stuff

Holiday Break-dancing

I will be all over the place for the next few weeks. That means I will most likely not be posting anything new untill 2009. boo-yah. That's lame. Who says boo-yah anymore. If there is something really juicy that I get my grubby little claws on, I will grace you all with my knowledge.

Do not forget to stop by Amazon or iTunes on 12/23 and buy the new single "Listen To Your Friends". I am sure you will be able to find it on every torrent site by X-mas Eve, but that would not be very nice. "Happy Hanukkah NFG. I just stole your music." That will put you on Robot Santa's naughty list for sure.

New Found Stuff

Head on over to New Found Glory Stuff to get some rare and limited NFG merch. It looks like it might be run right out of Captain Straight Edge's house. Maybe. Regardless, head over there and get some cool stuff.
