Hey, the new album is out and I have it right here. Even though I have already heard all the music (which is awesome!) I really like the artwork. I would say that Golden State is my favorite Bush album to date. If you are looking for the Bush album I listed some places to the right where you can find it.

[10/22/01] Bush on Channel One.
At my school we have this news program we watch everyday. It is like recorded at their studios then sent out by satellite to all of the schools around the nation who watch it, Then when the school gets it, Its recorded onto a tape then shown to the school the next morning. Well today I walked into homeroom and sat down then Channel One came on, and Bush was on there!!!!!!!! The whole band was on their and they were guest hosting the show promoting Golden State, Also channel one has this question of the day, and you can write in and answer the question If they use your answer on air you get a signed copy of Golden State by the whole band.

One day away.
Here we are one day away from the release of Golden State, I can't wait!! I don't know about you all but I am but the album first thing tomorrow. Also if I am not mistaking Bush is playing Las Vegas tonight so if you are going to that concert tonight write me a review and I will put it in the "concert reviews" section i am building I will only accept one review from each concert on the tour so be the first. You can send your review to Slimjim14@aol.com.

[10/19/01] Much Improved
Good job last night on Kilborn you did a much better job than on Leno. What made the difference was that on Kilburn Gavin sang out he wasn't holding back like he did on Leno. I have added a new poll so we can see who liked what performance better.

[10/18/01]* Bush To Play The Late Late Show With Craig Kilborn.
Don't forget to watch "The Late Late Show With Craig Kilborn" tonight at 12:30 on CBS. About last night on Leno, I didn't think it was all that great I mean it seems like Gavins voice just wasen't warmed up.

Help me out.
Hey everyone do me a favor, I have this friend who thinks MUDVAYNE is a better band than Bush, now we all know this is not true so please do me a favor and write him an e-mail at sluggers90210@aol.com and tell him what you think. He makes fun of Gavin and Bush all the time when he needs to realize that MUDVAYNE is the joke.

[10/18/01] * Bush to play The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Tonight!!
Don't forget tonight is the big night Bush will be playing "The Tonight Show" with Jay Leno. The show starts at 11:30PM (et). Also I think Jay will be talking to Bush after the performance of The People That We Love. And I was thinking we may get a peek at what the new album looks like because Jay usually holds up the album of the artist that is performing. So if you mean to record it don't forget!!

Bush State Of Grace - Hit Parader.
As he was strolling through a palatial Hollywood Hills estate, moving from location to location as part of a high-profile photo shoot, Gavin Rossdale bent down to pat a small dog on the head. “ What’s her name?” Bush’s charismatic vocalist asked.

[10/2/01] Bush to appear on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. And official UK site launched
It has been announced that Bush will appear on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno on October 18. They will be performing the first single off of Golden State "The People That We Love".Also I just found out that the Bush UK site has been launched at www.bush-music.co.uk .

Official Site Open, Bush MTV statement, All Golden State Lyrics Posted, New Tour Dates.
The official Bush site is now open at www.bush-music.com. I have to say that the official site is AWESOME. Also Gavin made a short statement on MTV this morning concerning the terrorist attacks. I do not have that exact statement yet, but as soon as I do it will be on here. I Have posted all of the Golden State lyrics, and they are all correct. I have archived more of the news if you are here looking for those Golden State clips I made you can find them in the Golden State section. The tour dates section has been updated with some new dates.

Atlantic Records Article
Here is the article about Golden State that I found on the Atlantic Records site
Bush - Gavin Rossdale: guitar and vocals; Nigel Pulsford: guitar; Dave Parsons: bass; Robin Goodridge: drums - are back with their higly anticipated Atlantic Records debut. The new GOLDEN STATE may well be the British band's most exciting collection to date, a dozen full-on tracks fit to burst with agro guitars, pulverizing rock rhythms, and Rossdale's raw, plaintive vocals. The album - produced by David Sardy (Marilyn Manson, Slayer, System Of A Down) - features such high-octane songs as the cathartic "Solutions" or the forceful first single, "Speed Kills." In addition, atmospheric tracks like "Out Of This World" and "Head Full Of Ghosts" display Rossdale's ever-growing gifts as an emotive and powerful songwriter. Simply put, GOLDEN STATE is Bush at its best.
Bush are unquestionably one of the most successful bands of the 90s. Exploding onto the rock scene with their RIAA 6x platinum debut, SIXTEEN STONE (1994), Bush let fly with a stunning streak of hits - including "Everything Zen," "Little Things," "Come Down," and "Glycerine" - just as they established themselves as among the hardest hitting live acts of the day. RAZORBLADE SUITCASE, the band's 1996 Steve Albini-recorded sophomore effort, debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, and soon achieved 3x platinum certification. DECONSTRUCTED, the gold certified collection of remixes by such turntable luminaries as Goldie, Tricky, and Soundclash Republic, was released in 1997. Bush's third proper album, 1999's platinum certified THE SCIENCE OF THINGS, featured the #1 Modern Rock hit "The Chemicals Between Us," and made its debut at #11 on the Billboard 200.

[10/1/01] New Tour Dates.
