i have a few mins before a pre-tour darling waste rehearsal so i thought i would post a blog with an update on my life. first off, i am still way addicted to twitter. you should follow me at www.twitter.com/lancewaste if you aren't on twitter you should sign up. it's fun. in darling waste news, our new album, I AM BORN, came out a couple weeks ago and is selling nicely. You can get it at www.darlingwastestore.com along with our t shirts and mp3s from all the albums. as some of you know from coming out to shows, i have been touring solo since the beginning of the year. it's been amazing. getting to really strip down all the songs to one instrument and my voice has been a nice challenge and it has been really nice to play new versions of all the songs. I've toured all over the u.s. in the last several months and am going over to Europe for 5 weeks in July/Aug to finish up the solo acoustic stuff with a tour with Our Innocence Lost. If for some reason you don't know them, go check them out. this august and Sept i am going to be taking a 4 piece band version of darling waste out on the road. while we aren't 100% on the details i think we are going to do another full u.s. tour, maybe around 4-5 weeks. we will most likely be opening for another band, we are looking at touring with our friends Warrior Soul. They are true legends from NYC and it would be a lot of fun going out on the road with them. as for who will be in the band there will be a couple of Darling Waste veterans coming back to play the shows and a couple of new faces as well. so stay tuned for that. the new album got nominated for a British Music Award so I think we are heading back to the U.K. in early October to go to the ceremony and play some parties and shows. as part of our Aug/Sept tour we are looking to play some benefit concerts for high school band/orchestra and theater troops plus any other clubs you may be in. If you are part of an organization that would like to have us come throw a benefit show, message me on twitter or on my personal myspace page www.myspace.com/lancewaste and we will set something up. let's see...in other news...i'm still running my recording studio and artist management firm www.myspace.com/focotheory . we just had an artist open for nine inch nails and jane's addiction. a lot of our artists are touring this summer so go check them all out. if you haven't read my interview with ZIMMS MUSIC yet you should do so at http://zimms.net/wp/?p=822 it has lots of personal and embarrassing information about my love life. that's all for now. hope everyone is having a good summer so far and hopefully we will see you on tour. love love love lance

APRIL UPDATE

WOW! I forgot I had this thing. I went to start one and found out I had already did it one night long ago with my friend Kristen. So yeah.

Lot has happened in the last couple of months. Let's see...I moved to Pittsburgh. I live with a crazy man for several months . Then I moved out.

I finished my bands new album "I AM BORN" . It comes out next month.

I launched my new artists management company The FOCOTheory Agency. We have lots of awesome artists. Check it out: www.myspace.com/focotheory

I moved FOCOTheory into a new buildilng. It houses the artist management firm and the recording studio. It's nice. We had to tear down some walls and I broke my hand fucking off with Jake from Maesion and Unsung Lies.

I had to have surgery for the hand so I had to cancel Darling Waste's SXSW appearance which was heartbreaking :(

I got addicted to twitter approx 2 weeks before the rest of the planet.

I went out and played some shows even though my hand was broken. They weren't The best shows but I tried.

I spent some time in NYC and a lot of time in PHILLY lately. Its been nice to travel. Im heading to Europe later this summer. I also got invited to the Cannes Film Fest in France but I'm not sure I will be able to put the trip together in such record time.

My fellow agent James and I are traveling the land this month to place HD video cameras in hip clubs across the u.s. It should be a blast.

I think that about catches everyone up.

Yup.
