The End of Summer Bash was absolutely fantastic. The club was packed and the crowd was LOUD!!! The guys had a great time and were absolutely blown away as to how much the crowd was into it. Thanks to all of you who came out and tore it up with us!

Now for the other updates...

The show in Hamilton isn't going to happen. At least the show we were planning on isn't going to happen. But, to the fans in Hamilton, we will be coming to do a show soon, hopefully before the end of the year.

The recording for Mantra is going great and everything seems to be on schedule. The CD is looking like it will be ready for the September 30th date!!! It is going to be a really good CD!

The all ages show is still up in the air. We are waiting on response from the corporate sponsors before we can give a definite answer as to where and when. If the sponsorship doesn't come through, then the show will still go on, but the where and when will change. Bottom line is that there is going to be and all ages show, but the final date and venue isn't confirmed. But...the line up is!!! Stay tuned for details.

Once the CD is done, the guys will be touring to cities in Ontario in support of the CD. So, in the next couple of months there will be updates concerning which cities Endeavour will be coming to. The guys are looking forward to doing some road shows and we will keep you posted.

That is it for now, but the updates will be back to a regular frequency from now on. See ya...

The guys have a heavy recording schedule in August because they are finishing the CD! The new release date is mid-September, with a CD release party to be taking place soon there after. Awake has been removed from the website because it is being re-worked for the CD. "Mantra" is going to be f*ckin bad ass!!!!

The guys are also writing like fiends. They have a couple of new songs that they are polishing up, and a couple of other new ones in the works. So, make sure you come to the End of Summer Bash, August 24th at Piazzans in Markham. They will be debuting these new songs that night. That is going to be one hell of a party. From the response we are getting, it sounds like it is going to be HUGE. Make sure you come out and party hard with Endeavour.

The rumoured "All Ages" show is starting to take shape. Stay tuned for details. It is going to be huge, and could involve not only some big name sponsors, but some kick ass bands will be joining the bill for that night!

Well that is it for now. Talk to you in a few days...

The "End of Summer Bash" in Markham is starting to take shape. Make sure you mark your calendars as it is going to be a great time!!! The date for that is Saturday, August 24th.

Hey Hamilton, looks like we are coming to see you. Look for a date for a Hamilton show to be announced soon. Plans are also in the works to have the guys playing a bunch of Ontario cities, so stay tuned.

All ages show in the works!!! It is looking like it will be in late September or early October but it will be HUGE!!! Check back soon for details, as we will let you know as soon as we know.

Talk to you soon...

Not all of the night was fun. Chris' car got towed from behind the club in the middle of loading his gear out. So, watch out for the assh*les with the tow trucks downtown!!! They are ruthless!

Other news for you all...

ENDEAVOUR has relocated their rehearsal space. The guys are no longer rehearsing in Markham. They have a new space right downtown close to all of the venues that they haunt.

Apologies to those who came out on Saturday just to be turned away at the door (Shannon and the gang). ENDEAVOUR is working on an all ages show that will take place at a downtown venue on a soon to be announced weekend. It may be not be a weekend night, it may be an afternoon show. Stay tuned for details.

The guys are going to be slipping into a bit of reclusion come the end of July. They have been doing so many shows lately they haven't had a chance to write any new tunes. So, you will see a decline in the shows the guys are doing, but don't take this as a sign that things aren't going well. It is quite the opposite, they will be writing like fiends to give you all some new songs.

For those of you in the G.T.A. and haven't been paying attention, TOOL is coming to Hamilton on August 25th. The guys are all going. So, the August 24th show at Piazzans is going to be a pre-TOOL party as well as an end of summer blow out. Make sure you mark your calendars!

If you want to see a TOOL ticket giveaway at that show E-Mail the guys.

That's it for now kids...talk to you later!

Don't forget to mark your calendars! ENDEAVOUR is playing Saturday, July 6th at The 360. This is a really big show for the guys, so we need all of you to come out. The set is at 9:30 (nice and early), so the guys will be hanging out partying for the rest of the night. If the turn-out for this show is really big, it will mean more Saturday night shows downtown!!!! So, come on down on Saturday, July 6th and party!!!

So, calling all you Endeavour fans. Our goal is to make this the biggest, rowdiest show ever. We are asking everyone to come on down to The 360 on July 6th and party with us. Endeavour has a 9:30 set time, so they will be hanging out partying for the rest of the night. Lets tear it up on July 6th at The 360!!!! Check the Shows Section for details.

At the show at Piazzans on Saturday, June 22nd Endeavour is going to try something a little different. We are bringing in an alternative DJ to spin before the band takes the stage. The guest DJ's set begins at 9:30. Check the Shows Section for details.

Talk to you all real soon, and hope to see you this week at one of the shows.

Where is it? The Roundhouse Rumble is in Bremner Park on Bremner Blvd. in downtown Toronto. You can't miss it, as the park is just south of the CN Tower. For further details go to www.roundhouserumble.com. Now, this event is going to be HUGE! Organizers have told us that they are expecting up to 9,000 people down at the event. So, come on down and lets have some fun. Our set is tentatively at 12:00 noon and a second set at 4:00. Now, these are tentative, so check back for confirmed times by Wednesday.

So kids, this is the All Ages weekend performance you have been asking for!!!! Walk, run, skip, ride a bike, skate, blade...who f*ckin cares, just get there on Sunday and lets have a Kick Ass Time!!!!!!!! There will be CD's and Stickers available for all!!!!!

Endeavour is no longer a three piece band, but we are now a four piece band. It is our great pleasure to announce that Chris Reed (lead and rhythm guitars) is now the fourth member of Endeavour. Kevin, Shawn and Colin always talked about getting a fourth member, but the search was proving unsuccessful. Then the guys thought of Chris. Chris had opened for Endeavour as a solo artist at an acoustic show in December, and really gelled well with the guys. So, after bringing him out for a couple of auditions, the guys made him an offer to join which he gladly accepted. Chris not only brings amazing guitar talents to the band, but amazing writing skills and a great personality. The guys have all said that it feels like he has been there from the start because they all get along so well together and work so well as a unit.

Chris made his debut last night, and the guys debuted two new songs. So, for those of you who missed the show, you missed a really big night in the Bands history. Look for pictures of Chris to be posted in the very near future. That way you will be able to put a face to the name and maybe go up and say hi and welcome him when you see him at the next show!

Remember to make every arrangement to get to the show on the 28th! We have a huge surprise for you, but you got to be there to see it.....
