Joining the trio were glitzy gals and music industry dudes. The crew consumed heaps of grub and beverages. (The boys drank Coke, Diet Coke and iced tea--the waiter swears on a stack of CDs.) The bros and their pals staked out a table near the hang's mechanical bull, and Isaac and Taylor mounted the steed in a postgame frenzy of bad decisions. Zac, the youngest Hanson for those of you keeping track, was clearly looking for other forms of intoxication, as he watched with amusement and chatted up a fox-ay young femme. Score! * Hanson also attended Wango Tango sunday night to watch Aerosmith perform * Hanson attended a Seventeen mag thing at the House of Blues on Thursday (June 2001).

Currently... Hanson is probably in L.A. working again on the album :) March 13th-17th Hanson will perform at the SxSW Music Festival sometime in these days Summer 2002 The next album *should* be released :) Album News: - Guitar.com: Love Me Teen-der. Hanson Rise Above the Pop Pack (and check out the additional article with just Isaac near the bottom of the page) - Hanson working on Third LP-Whether You Like It Or Not (at mtv.com) Wow, I can't believe they've written 30 songs already!! - Hot Scoop on Hanson's New Album (katrillion.com) - Hanson, Sweet Go Underneath - Hanson Work With Carole King - tons of new song titles and collaborators! :) * - Hanson Teams With Barenaked Ladies, Carole King, Fastball, Semisonic On Next Album from CDNOW - In the June 27th issue of SmashHits UK: Next Time Around Hanson: new album is coming out next year Hanson have revealed that their new album will be influenced by British bands like Coldplay and Travis, and promises that it'll reach the shops by the beginning of next year. Isaac, Taylor and Zac spoke to 'Smash Hits' as they jetted into England for a flying visit while writing songs in France. " 'Middle of Nowhere' was pop-based, rock and 'This Time Around' was more southern rock and blues influenced", said Isaac. "There might be a couple more '60s and '70s songs on the new album and a bit of mellowness." " I think you're always trying to find new inspiration - like the latest U2 record," added Zac. And Taylor was keen to keep us up-to-date with their love lives. "You want to know if we have girlfriends?" he laughed. "Isaac and I do but Zac's single at the moment." - July 19th issue of Rolling Stones Maganzine, in the Random Notes section: "We've done this writing project in southwest France," says Taylor, the middle Hanson child, "where songwriters pair up and write and record a song everyday for a week." Looking in a new direction for its next album, the trio worked with the likes of Carole King, Miles Zuniga of Fastball, and Ed Robertson of Bare Naked Ladies. They also worked with Matthew Sweet at his home in Los Angeles. "We've got enough material for two, maybe three albums," says Tay, but the boys are taking their time to decide just what'll make the cut for their next LP, due in 2002. Drummer Zac, the youngest, has a potentially prosperous idea: "Let's become teen pop!" he says sarcastically. "We're gonna bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp. Oh, Yeah, baby." And there is a picture of Hanson and Matthew Sweet in Sweet's L.A. home. :) SoCal -- where Hanson's at: To see 2001 Hanson sighting pictures, you can go to the Albums at the SoCal Hanson Team Yahoo!
