The Gin Blossoms have a slew of live dates lined up all across the
country this year... see <http://www.ginblossoms.info/tourdates.html>
for the latest list.

Erin

You can find more info about the event here:

http://www.bignightsandiego.com

Cracker, Agent 51 and wONKA bAR are also playing.

The unofficial website has just been updated with some new news bits.

* Upcoming show dates... 12/13/03 at the House of Blues in Las Vegas
(a
benefit concert for the Shade Tree women's shelter), and 1/29/04 at
Jilly's
American Grill in Scottsdale, AZ.

A promotional poster for the Shade Tree benefit is available at
http://
www.ginblossoms.info/shadetree.pdf (it's a 4 mb file). More info
about the
benefit:

Sallie Mae's 300-person call-center in Summerlin, Nev. is hosting
"Shade
Tree V," a benefit concert to raise money for The Shade Tree
Women's
Shelter, a local non-profit organization that provides services to
more than
4,000 homeless women and children each month.

The concert will feature headliners, the Gin Blossoms; host, British
rocker
John Waite; and a performance from Grammy award winning singer Jody
Watley. Las Vegas hip-hop artist Bonafied will also perform.

Sallie Mae employees have elected to forgo their holiday party for
the fifth
consecutive year in order to host this benefit for The Shade Tree
Women's
Shelter.

TICKETS:  The concert is open to the public. General admission
tickets are
$30 and reserved seats are $40. A limited number of $100 host tickets
and
$400 reserved host tables are available and include admission to the
private
after-show party with Waite, the Gin Blossoms and Watley at The House
of
Blues. All tickets can be purchased by contacting the House of Blues
ticket
office at 1-702-632-7600. Infinity Broadcasting is a media co-sponsor
for the
event and will conduct ticket promotions on Las Vegas radio stations
Mix 94.1
and Lite 100.5.

All ticket proceeds will go to The Shade Tree Women's Shelter. In
addition,
The Sallie Mae Fund, a charitable organization sponsored by Sallie
Mae, is
contributing a dollar-for-dollar match of up to $30,000 of the
proceeds from
the event. Last year's concert raised more than $70,000 for the
shelter.

* Robin, a huge PlayStation 2 fan, agreed to take part in a Karaoke
Revolution story</a> in the December issue of the Official U.S.
Playstation
Magazine, now on shelves. The game scores players on their pitch and
rhythm via a headset, and "Hey Jealousy" is one of the songs in the
game. In
the article, Robin is "competing" with R.E.M., Hoobastank, and
Barenaked
Ladies. The issue is on newsstands now, or you can read the article
online:
http://www.playstationmagazine.com/article2/0,4364,1393422,00.asp

Starting in January, Robin will also be contributing a regular column
to the
magazine. And the February issue will include a demo disc (playable
in any
PlayStation 2) with a feature on Robin and his love for games.

The official GBs website (http://www.gin-blossoms.com) and official Yahoo
Group have been unexpected shut down and removed.

In the meantime, a temporary Yahoo Group has been started by members of
the old one:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gin_blossomsLoW

Also, I've been meaning to install a message board at www.ginblossoms.info
for a long time... figured I'd better hurry up and do it!  It's still under
construction, but is now available for use:

    From: "gin_blossoms1 <gin_blossoms1@...>" <
gin_blossoms1@...>
Subject: Cincy, Minneapolis confirmed.. Long Island re-scheduled


Looks like Long Island will be on Saturday, June 7th at Mulcahy's in
Wantaugh. This has not been confirmed but it could be locked in this
week.

Saturday, June 14th the band will be in Cincinnati, OH... once again
part of the Rib America festival (5th & Race St). Hopefully the
weather will be kinder this year.

Wednesday, July 23rd Minneapolis will get another chance to see the
Gin Blossoms. The band will be playing their third and final Rib
America Festival of the year at Nicollet Mall & Marquette Btw. 3rd &
4th St.

Folks in Denver... be patient... they're working on something for you.

The unofficial website has been updated to include the upcoming tour dates
for this year.

Also, here's an announcement from GBs management:

Date: Tuesday, February 11, 2003
Title: ANNOUNCING GIN BLOSSOMS STREET TEAM CONTEST


ANNOUNCING THE FIRST GIN BLOSSOMS STREET TEAM CONTEST


The Markets: Orlando (HOB 3/8), Hallendale (3/9) Syracuse (Bridge Music
Hall 3/12), Poughkeepsie (Chance 3/13), Jay Peak (3/15), Killington (Pickel
Barrel 3/16), Savannah (Riverfest 3/17)

Objective: To raise awareness of the Gin Blossoms in key tour markets and to
help promote the band's upcoming concert dates. (We want these shows
packed - especially Orlando!!).

Rules: Contest begins 2/11 and ends 3/11 (On the 1 Year Anniversary of the
Gin Blossoms Yahoo Message Board). Participants may use any materials
available to them or anything that they create. Contestants MAY NOT
represent themselves as working for the band or their management company.
You are taking part in this contest as an independent member of a street
team. There will be no financial compensation for your time. The contest is not
limited to people living in the tour markets. We encourage everyone to get
involved and help spread the word. Your marketing campaign does not have
to focus on all the dates. In fact, it would be better if you concentrated on a
single show (Just a suggestion). Concepts should be in good taste and not
involve any illegal behavior. (Don't streak at the Arena Football Game with a
Gin Blossoms sticker across your bum).

Submissions: A brief description of your idea should be submitted ahead of
time. You should email or mail documentation of your project to
GinBlossoms1@.... In the case of posters, etc. you should email us for
an address to mail copies to. We cannot return items submitted.

Prizes:
(1) First Prize - Autographed Photo, Autographed DVD artwork, Autographed
Hotel Room Key (Hilton Anchorage), private color snapshot of band in Alaska,
T-shirt, Hat, 2 after-show passes to an upcoming show in your area (age
restrictions may apply)

(1) Second Prize - Autographed Photo, T-shirt, Hat, 2 after-show passes (see
above)

(5) Third Prize - Gin Blossoms T-shirt and autographed copy of the Jesse
Valenzuela CD

More news from the official list (thanks J)...

shows in Alaska and their first SoCal club dates in six years) are

These will also be the first shows with their new drummer, Scott

available to work with the band because of personal reasons.

with USAToday.com. You can find the transcript here:

<http://www.usatoday.com/community/chat/2002-11-20-valenzue
la.htm>

Also, there was a recent article about the GBs in Get Out
magazine:

<http://www.getoutaz.com/music/gin1024.shtml>

If you've been following the posts on the official list (in which
case, good for you, because *I* sure haven't been able to keep
up with them all!), you've seen that the Blossoms plan to start
writing and recording again, and hope to have an album out next
year. :)

As always, keep your eyes on www.ginblossoms.info,
www.gin-blossoms.com, and the official list at

From the official list:

"The Baton Rouge show has been canceled due to the hurricane. There
are four dates in November being looked at as make-up dates. We'll
keep you posted."

I believe this show was supposed to be on Saturday night.

Erin

Well, thanks to Geocities screwing up... the unofficial GBs
website has made a rather hurried move to its new URL:
http://www.ginblossoms.info.

Unfortunately, at the moment, the old URL no longer exists...
although I'm working on browbeating Geocities into reinstating it.
So please change your bookmarks, and let people know the site
has moved. I'm hoping to be able to put a redirect link back at the
old URL shortly.

Now for the news...

Dusted has been available online sporadically throughout the
year, but it is being officially re-released (again) on Sept. 10, and
will be available at http://www.benchmarkrecords.com.

The collector's edition of New Miserable Experience will be
released on Sept. 24. Track listing is available on the News
page of the site.

The new Blossoms DVD, "Just South of Nowhere," will be
released Oct. 22. Track list is available on the site.

A few new tour dates have been announced. As always, keep an
eye on Pollstar.com and the official mailing list for the most
up-to-the-minute news on these.

9/27 - Whole Enchilada Festival, Las Cruces, NM (with Sponge)

9/29 - Big Spring Jam, Huntsville, AL (with Eek-A-Mouse, Filter,

Blossoms website is now up: http://www.gin-blossoms.com

Hey all!

Thanks to all for the very nice emails welcoming me and making me

In addition to the VH1 board, we are going to try and build a data
base of radio stations throughout the US and Canada that would play
the Gin Blossoms music.  This information will also be vital in
promoting the shows.  If anyone can get us the station names and/or
request line numbers, fax numbers, and e-mails, it would be a huge
help!

Finally, the very best way to support the band and get their name
back into the public eye is through merchandising!  The shirts and

them proudly in support of a great band!

release schedule. There has been a very strong push to get it out for
August to coincide with the album's original release date 10 years
ago. If all goes well it could come out then... if not then October
at the latest."

I'm in the midst of giving the website a facelift. (It has been about
5 years, after all. ;)

It's about half finished... the main pages have been updated, but
some of the less-frequently-visited ones are still in the old style.

Please bear with us... some links may not work, and some things may
be momentarily missing. Everything will be put back together in a few
days, but let me know if you run into any problems.

Thanks!

Erin

Some news on the homefront. It looks like the folks on the east coast
will be the first ones to witness a new skin basher for the Blossoms.
Starting next week, the one and only Gary Smith from the Pistoleros
will sitting in with the Blossoms. The immediate plans call for Gary
to be with the band through the NWD Tour. For the Chicken Little fans
on the list - have no fear... the Pistoleros are remaining intact.
Don't say we never tell you anything...

Tix for the June 1 show at the Marquee Theatre in Jacksonville, Fla.,
are available at http://www.marqueetheatre.musictoday.com

They claim that you won't be subject to "the enormous service charge
that other outside ticket vendors will incur," but I haven't checked
to see what their fees actually are.

Big Sky will also be playing at this show.
