Hi everyone! Let's get right to the big picture. We got our
new CD! YIPPPPPIEEEE!!!!
It's 5 songs and the production is AWESOME. We go back to 5 more
in March, so we will release it as a full length. Don't worry,
those who feel cheated by buying the first 5 in its already for,
we are only goint to see the full length for 5 bucks. So if you
buy the first 5 now, you still only pay for the new 5 songs when
the new CD comes out in the full length version. We didn't realize
when we released this CD, that we were going to be recodring
more, but we had an offer we couldn't refuse. I can't talk about
it right now, but when the time comes you guys will be the first
to know.
Now for some
sad new... We are no longer affiliated with Anderson Entertainment.
Bonnie Anderson has decided to leave the music industry to pursue
other interests. We will miss her, and so will local music. We
wish her the best in whatever she does.
This being
said, are now shopping fo new managment. We have had some interest.
We will be deciding soon on which of three companies wi are going
to sign with. Because of legailities, I can't say who they are.
Now we played
two AWESOME shows last week. One at the Coppermine, and the other
are Zakks. Agony Creeps was awesome. You've got to check them
out. Triple Aught was cool as ever. Zakks was the loudest and
wildest I've ever seen it. It was packed, and the chicks dancing
on the pool tables and flashing us were off the hook! Anyway,
we are back into writing mode. I've got two titles and some lyrics
for Second Skin, and the Devils Grip.
Well Fuseheads,
I'll be seeing you soon!

Hi Fuse fans,
just updating
you from the studio. Matt is singiing "Faded Silver
Screen" now. The drums are done and so is the bass.
All my rhythms are done. Next are solos for me once matt
is done, also acoustic guitar. Drew has been magnificent,
by far the best drum and guitar sounds ever. Todd was unable
to join us for the trip. He'll be part of the mix and mastering.
I'm trying to rewrite the lyrics to "Sleeper" ,we just
aren't happy with the original. It's probably the song
well use for our first single and we want it to be the best concept.
Well, I'll check in a little later...

It's me again!!! Matt finished his vocals. T-Bone
is now doing backing vocals. Our back up singer Paula Capps
arrived, did some tracks, and actually helped matt and
I finish the lyrics to "Sleeper". The songs are
rocking and I think there is a lot of magic. Drew is amazing,
very laid back and sooooo helpful. Well I'll check in later
on.

Hey!!!!!
What a show at the Half Shell. Lots of friends came to
party with us; Dale, Jeremy, Stacy, Aaron, and Chris. YOU
GUYS ROCK!! The new tunes went over really well.
Paula, our new back up singer and stage girl (we are looking
for more) rocked on Godsmacks "Awake" and out tunes
"Healing" and "Hollywood Madman". The
crowd was loud and kciked ass. We may do one more warm
up show before the studio in N.C. or in our hometown. I
picked up the new Ozzy CD. I hated it at first because
Zakk didn't write anything on it, but it's growing on me now.
We can't wait to record the CD. I've been writing a song
called "Laugh in the Face of Death". If it's
good enough we may record it. Well guys, until next time.

Hi
guys!!!!!! Its
been a while, been laying low.
First, I want to recap our last year (Sept. to Sept.)
We released out first full length CD, got singles such
as Ginger, Strawberry Rose, Rinse, Sunshine Girl, and Soulmachine
played on XL102 and FM 99.
We toured constantly from Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Richmond,
Murfreesboro, NC, New Jersey, Philly and Fredricksburg.
Kicked ass and took names.
Merchandise sales were unreal from shirts, lighters, 8x10s,
and stickers. It
was a pleasure to meet new fans and bands that were really cool
to us. To sum it
up, we had a wonderful year and accomplished everything that
we set out to do, which was to get our merchandise right, CDs,
and live show, which created a big buzz about us.
Now we are set to record out next CD with Drew Mazurek
in Nov. We are totally
excited. We took
a month off to write songs.
We came up with 3 songs that we havent played live
before and 2 live fav. Like Hollywood Madman and Child Superstar.
The new CD will be heavier than the last, but will also
touch on a new side of us.
A song called healing that was written by Matt and I about
the Oaklahoma City bombing will be on the CD.
It is also dedicated to the victims from September 11th.
I want to say much about this issue except that it pains
us and our prayers go out to the victims and America.
We just got a grant from Jim Beam and are pursuing sponsorships. This year, our goal is to go to the top.
A record deal. Thats the total goal.
We want to win the heavyweight title.
So, be expecting lost of gigs, promotions, and air play. Now on to me.
Ive been chilling with family when not at rehearsals.
Ive been listening
to lots of Motown, tons of it.
Even thought we are a rock band, I sometimes listen to
Motown to inspire a groove, soul, or hook in my writing.
By the way, we need gospel or Motown type singer to sing
back up on Hollywood Madman.
All interested email me at FuseFreak@aol.com. Now
I want to take the time to thank the Fuse Special Forces : Mish
our Webmaster, Bear our Bodyguard do all, Jacky our Sound Roadie
Dude, Bonnie our Manager, Leslie and Deb our Merchandise Chicks,
Todd our producer, and You the Fans.
Lets take the world by storm.
CD to be released January 1st, 2001
