No Doubt Needs Your Help, Today show questions

Friday, April 24th, 2009

From an official e-mail:
“Hello Everyone.

The tour launches in a few weeks and we need your help. We’re creating the video elements for the upcoming tour and want to include YOU!

We need you, your friends, family, loved ones, pets and anyone else you’d like to include to dress up like Gwen and show us your best interpretation of “Just A Girl.” So get dolled up like Gwen, get your video cameras out and dance, sing, jump, crunk or do whatever it is you do and send it over to us. We’re hoping to get loads of great footage to air during our performance of “Just A Girl” on the 2009 Summer Tour.

We don’t have much time so get to filming. Deadline for entries is May 1st.

Get out the red lipstick, the blond wigs and whatever else you can find and show us your best impression of “Just A Girl.” We’ll post your video submissions here on the site for everyone to check out. We can’t wait to see what you come up with and hope to show the world on tour! Go to www.nodoubt.com/justagirl to submit your videos.

Thanks!”

Also, as you probably know, No Doubt will be on the Today show May 1st. You can go to their web site and submit questions that you’d like them to ask the band.

new video and note on Interscope’s site and firefox theme

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

There’s a new video interview and a note from Gwen on Interscope’s site (here).
“Hiya,
It’s been crazy busy at rehearsals. So much to get it all going. this tour is gonna be amazing. It’s hilarious being all back together. Lots of creative energy and inspiration.

As some of you may know, we decided on the fly to appear on the show Gossip Girl as the 80’s band Snowed Out. We’re doing a cover of “Stand and Deliver” by Adam and the Ants for that show and have been messing around with it here at rehearsals. We hadn’t planned on playing the song live but we’ve been having so much fun we decided to play it on stage for the first time at Bamboozle on May 3rd. If you guys like it, maybe we’ll add it into our set.

I heard there’s some confusion about the song and it being our new single. It’s not our new single, just a fun thing we did for the show. We included it in our catalogue download because… Well, I don’t know. I guess because we wanted to give you something extra. As you know, this whole tour is to get us inspired to write our new record.

Well, gotta run. We’re shooting tour video stuff with Sophie Muller today and they’re ready to start. See you soon!

Gx”

Also, Mozilla has just released an official theme-like extension for Firefox called “Personas”.  There’s a No Doubt theme.

fan passes for the Today show, Spin mag cover

Monday, April 13th, 2009

Here is an e-mail I received from someone at NBC today:
“I’m the concert coordinator at the Today Show. We’re thrilled to host No Doubt on May 1st, and would love to offer visitors to your site special “Fan Passes”. I’m going to begin distributing them this week and would love to get No Doubt’s most dedicated fans in on this!

We like to pack the very front area of the plaza with true fans – If you’d like to help, I’d love if you could post something along the lines of the following on your site:

To receive concert updates and special No Doubt “Fan Passes” for their performance on the Today Show on Friday, May 1st, email todayshowconcerts@nbcuni.com with “Fan Pass” as the subject.”

So, if you’re planning on attending, make sure you e-mail them and get a “fan pass” so you can get right up there and represent!
I wish I could go!

Also, NxD is on the cover of the May issue of Spin magazine! I unfortunately don’t have it yet as it’s not in the stores just yet, but you can see scans at my pal Jenny’s site.

Toyota Concert Series on TODAY, Gwen Elle cover

Sunday, April 5th, 2009

Hi all!
No Doubt is going to be performing on the Toyota Concert Series on the Today show May 1st! From an article on the Today web site:
“For its 14th consecutive year, NBC’s TODAY is bringing together the biggest, boldest names in music to rock the Plaza. This year’s “Toyota Concert Series on TODAY” kicks off with a special comeback performance by Grammy Award-winning rock band No Doubt, Friday, May 1.

No Doubt has been on a multi-year hiatus, and the innovative band’s TODAY performance marks the group’s first concert together in five years. The live concert will also mark their first-ever TODAY performance.”

Gwen is going to be on an upcoming cover of Elle magazine. Not sure when just yet. Some photos from the April 3 shoot can be found here.
