400 LUCKY FANS PREPARE FOR TONIGHT'S TEA PARTY
Source: The Edmonton Journal, May 29, 1999

The first of Pepsi's Summer Concert series kicks off tonight with The Tea Party at the Rev.
About 400 people are expected to attend the exclusive gig--they all won tickets through the BEAR radio station or the Rev.
Tonight's concert is somewhat bad timing for The Tea Party. The trio's new album, Triptych, is scheduled for release on June 8, so fans won't be up to speed with the band's new songs. Then again, concert-goers will be getting a sneak preview, so there's no reason to complain.
For those who weren't lucky enough to win tickets, here's a small preview for you: Triptych contains 12 tracks, the first single being Heaven Coming Down.
The other 11 tracks are Touch, Underground, Great Big Lie, Halogen Days, Chimera, A Slight Attack, Samsara, These Living Arms, Gone and Taking Me Away.
According to early reports, these songs are much different than those on The Tea Party's previous two albums. Maybe singer Jeff Martin is finally closing the door on his Jim Morrison days.
The Tea Party, minus Pepsi, are expected to tour again through town in November.
