NEW BLOG ADDRESS

We put it up to you fans to decide the name of our official blog address and now it's up and running!

AFTERMIDNIGHTPROJECTBLOG.BLOGSPOT.COM

New and improved, this blog has EVERY SINGLE post ever posted on both the Studio Blog AND the Tour Blog. So in case you've missed any entries over the past few months, don't worry: they're all right here! Use the Archive to the right and you'll be able to go month-by-month, post-by-post to go back and revisit all the fun we've had since the blog started in June.

Let us know if what you think! Not too much will be different as far as content and keep you informed but now you have ONE SPOT to check out everything blog-related for AMP. Sorry to everyone for changing the address yet again but we really wanted to keep everything centralized and not have new blogs every time we move from the studio to tour to wherever we might be. This way no matter what the occasion, we'll always be keeping you up to date at one location: AFTERMIDNIGHTPROJECTBLOG.BLOGSPOT.COM!

Thanks for keeping up with us and being so dedicated as to follow us all across the Web. You rock more than we can express. And in the immortal words of Danny Morris: STAY AWESOME!!

What's up everyone! We took a few, precious minutes away from the studio and stepped outside into the beautiful southern California sun to say hello to all of you and give you a quick update on our goings-on...

Twitter

It's Friday!

We're in the studio tonight, tomorrow, and the next day... you get the idea. So please go out tonight and have some fun for us! We're having fun but it's also hard work. It's going to be great, though.

If you get a chance, check out our Twitter page that we just started. It's at http://twitter.com/ampla. It's like the Blog Lite! In case you just need a quick little AMP pick-me-up when you can't get your full blog fix.

Late Night Studio Session

We are now halfway through our second week in the studio and some of us have reached a level of delirium. Some more than others. During a brief break from recording, Spencer and Christian found themselves... well, you should just see for yourselves.

Meet John Feldmann

And now a little introduction by our producer John Feldmann. We've been spending countless hours over the past week with him and while we've had our chance to say hello, John felt a little left out. So, fans, meet John. John, meet the fans.

What We Learned On Tour

As we've been spending hours and hours in the studio this week, we've been remembering just how much fun we had on tour and how much we learned about ourselves and life in general.

So while we're occupied in a room with no windows, please enjoy today's installment of a new series of little videos that show what we learned from the Robot Roadkill Tour 2008.

Today's first episode: How To Street Luge

Robot Roadkill Check In #1

Most of you have probably seen the video "The Return of Darryl." Well, we haven't seen him since that day when he hitchhiked out of Evansville, IN. We figured he probably caught up with some other buddies or another band and stayed out on the road. Turns out, we were wrong. Darryl is in Los Angeles! Someone tipped us off to a Craigslist ad that he took out looking for work. Check it out (if you click on the picture it'll open it up big so you can read it):


We're not really in the market for a new roadie at the moment - not that we'd hire that guy again - but it's nice to hear that Darryl is back and he's doing all right. We didn't leave on good terms, exactly, but there were moments that we all had a really fun time - like in Texas. Well, until he got out of control. Which is usually what always happened.

Anyway, maybe drop him a line if you know of any bands that might be interested. Here's the link to the actual ad:

Secret Show Clips!!

Check out a little compilation of footage from the secret show if you missed it. Or if you just want to see it again!

SECRET SHOW PICTURES!!

Thanks so much to everyone who made it out our secret show in Hollywood on Saturday. It was really amazing to see so many familiar faces who have been with us since the very beginning as well as new ones that we've met along the way. We had a total blast and we hope you did, too.

You can watch the whole show on the Stickam.com player we have at the top of the page. And in addition, check out some pictures of the show, as well. If you've checked out our MySpace bulletins, you should have read that we got signed to Universal/Motown and we actually started recording our VERY FIRST FULL LENGTH ALBUM TODAY!!! We'll keep you posted on everything but just remember that we wouldn't be here without all of you. You've helped make this happen and for that we thank you.

The Return of Darryl!

I know everyone heard about Darryl over the tour - some of the rumors true, some not - and you've probably wondered whatever happened to him. He started out with such promise, such potential, but it didn't quite all come to fruition. Here's what happened when he came back on tour after having had some previous disagreements with the band in the past...

SECRET SHOW!

After a few weeks of rest and getting back to our lives in LA, we're back up and blogging again. If you haven't already checked out the amptour2008.blogspot.com blog, check back there to see a couple new videos that you may have missed, including the live acoustic set from St. Paul, MN. There's a link on the right side of the page for your viewing pleasure.

If you didn't already know, we will be performing a SECRET SHOW in Hollywood on Saturday. This Saturday, as in tomorrow! Check out our MySpace to find out the details. Make sure to get there early so you can be sure to make it in. We'd love to see as many faces as possible. This is the last show we're going to do before we head into the studio on MONDAY!!! We're so excited and we'll have so much to tell you about next week.

In case you can't make the show tomorrow, be sure to check it out on Stickam.com - or use the player at the bottom of our page - to watch us LIVE on the web! Ahh the beauty of technology. You can see us without even being in the same zip code!

It's going to be a really exciting and busy couple of months. For everyone who followed us along on tour, join us in the studio as we record our very first full-length major label album with producer John Feldmann!!
