Bush--Heads for the golden state
New album, their debut for Atlantic, in stores October 23
U.K. alternative rock act Bush took the states by storm in 1994, infecting the airwaves with five prosperous singles off their rookie release, Sixteen Stone: "Everything Zen", "Little Things", "Machinehead", Comedown", and "Glycerine.

Bush Battle Back With Golden New Album
Seven years ago, Bush singer Gavin Rossdale entered the spotlight screaming the lines, "Everything zen? Everything zen?/ I don't think so." While he was reflecting the frustration and disenchantment of the era, he might well have been singing about Bush circa 2001.

[9/22/01]Release Date Mistake, Full Golden State Album Acquired By SIW.
Yesterday I posted that there was a release date change, I am going to go ahead and revoke that statement. I was on Amazon today and they still have it as the 23rd, so I am thinking that it could be a mistake made by Kerrang where I got the date changes from yesterday. Also I have a full copy of Golden State so if you would like me to tell you about some of the songs please send me a instant message on AIM/AOL at the screenname "SlimJim14". If you are nice, and I am not busy I may transfer you a song.

Site Changes
As you may have noticed there is a new "Site" section the Summer Is Winter menu. I have decided to combine the About SIW, Contact, and awards sections into one section to make Summer Is Winter even easier to navigate.

[9/21/01] Release Dates Changed, New cover art released
Because of all the changes that have been made to Golden State as of late bush will delay the release of there new album a few days. The album will now be released on October 29 and the first single "The People That We Love" will now be released on November 12. As you all know Bush decided to change the cover art of there up and coming album "Golden State" in the wake of last weeks WTC tragedies. The new cover art has been released and I have to say I liked the old cover better.

[9/19/01] New Poll

[9/15/01] Please Read Below
If any of you all are coming here because of the rude and offensive comments made by the webmaster of 40 miles from the sun regarding the content and design of Summer Is Winter I would like to say that my site is original and I have spent many months designing it and I will not be stripped of the credit I deserve for creating it. It baffles me that someone could make such harsh comments prating to someoneelse's site when there time should be spent making there own better.

I got my 2,000th hit. I found some cool new Bush pictures I am going to add them to my pictures section as soon as I get it up and going. My good friend Diane from "40 Miles From The Sun" got a domain and I am happy for her on that. so I just thought I would tell you all that.

[9/7/01] 2,000 Hits Yah!!!
I launched Summer Is Winter on May 17, 2001, since then my Bush site has slowly grown and now is about to reach 2,000 hits. Witch is a lot for a Bush site considering how many people visit Bush sites (not a lot). I am 25 hits away from 2,000 right now at 4:16 PM and I should reach 2,000 before the day is over. I hope so!
Besides that I have added the mailing list to the new layout and I am working on setting up a site search so you can search Summer Is Winter for what you would like to find. The pictures section is down for now but I am working on it.

[9/5/01]
Ok if you are wondering how the new album will rate with the old albums. Golden State will be better than Razorblade Suitcase, Science Of Things, and Deconstructed. As far as Sixteen Stone goes I am not for sure yet. These are just my opinions and the opinions od Diane from "40 Miles From The Sun".

[9/3/01]
I am just about finished with my new layout what do you all think. Read the New Layout section to the left and vote on my poll.
