That is if you live in Utah, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington.  Everyone else can help, too, though!

Endless Day is coming to Wal-Mart stores on Tuesday in those states and if you live there, please pick one up.  We will love you forever if you do!  (We love you anyway, but we'd sure appreciate it) They have it for a great price, so if you already have it and you know someone who might like it, it would make a great gift!  If the CD does well in these states' Wal-Marts, then it will come to every Wal-Mart across the country!  $10 is a cool price for a great album, don't you think?  Please be sure to spread the word to your Twi-Friends and music buffs in those states, too!  Thanks so much!

Hey MHB fans!

Larry Carroll from MTV news posted a blog on Friday asking who you want to hear on the New Moon soundtrack. He even mentions us by name! Head over to the blog and leave a comment about how you'd love to hear us on the soundtrack and why.

Then, send a bulletin to all your friends about it, too. Let's spread the word around and make this happen! If you'd do this for us, we'd be so grateful! Please take just a minute and let your voice be heard! Thanks so much in advance! You all rock!

But then again, when are we not?  :) I'm just really excited about the most recent song I've started putting together.  It sounds really cool!  Well, at least it does in my head, because I haven't laid down any tracks for it yet.  It's going to be called "Whisper."  I'll let you try to guess what its about, but I'm not going to tell if you're right.  Yeah, I'm evil like that, but I'm hoping the song's eventual coolness will more than make up for my evil ways.

I also wanted to give you a little insight into how the songwriting / song selecting process works.  As of right now we have 19 either fully or partially written songs, and we won't be releasing a new album probably until next year sometime.  By the time we hit the studio we should have a major gamut of songs to choose from for the next record.  Man, that is so long from now and I'm already excited just thinking about it!  A couple of them might be familiar to old time MHB fans, but most of them will be fresh and new to everyone.
 
I'm also hoping to take some pictures and introduce you to our inanimate band mates (our guitars and gear) some time.   We're such dorks that we name our guitars and amps, so I figured a proper introduction may be in order. 
Anyway, just wanted to give everyone a quick update on what we've been up to latley.  Have a great week!

Here is a new way for you to help us get on the soundtrack!
Here is the music supervisor's myspace page.
 
http://www. myspace. com/chopshopmusicsupervision
 
So here is what you need to do: Send them a message about us! Include our myspace link, too. Here it is for your convenience:
 
www. myspace. com/mitchhansenband
or
www. myspace. com/mhbfornewmoon (these are the NM specific songs)
 
And then once you've sent them a myspace message, send them an email, too!
 
info@chopshopmusic.com
 
Tell them that you want to hear the MHB on the New Moon soundtrack. Tell them that we've re-recorded the CD in a real studio with one of David Archuleta's producers. Tell them it sounds awesome! Tell them its very rockin'! Tell them whatever you think will persuade them to listen to us! We would be so grateful for your help! Lets flood their inboxes with MHB requests!
 
Your help will definitely go a long way, so if want to hear us in the film, let your voice be heard!
 
Thanks so much! Lets do this!

We don't have a plan as to how we are going to accomplish this yet, but you have to start somewhere, right?  The first stage of our plan consists of us setting up a separate profile for this purpose alone.  We know that we are stealing this idea from the very talented Hana Pestle, but why should she get to have all of the fun?  By the way, her song "Need" is awesome!  I hope she gets on the soundtrack, because that song is muy bueno!

Anyways, we need your help!  With your help we know anything is possible! 
 
STEP ONE, please send a friend requset to the new profile.  The more friends it has, the better.

STEP TWO, lets get the plays for the 2 songs on the profile super high.  That will show the world that we mean business!  Be sure to add one or both of them to your personal profile, too!  We thought By You and A World Without You would be the best fits for New Moon.

STEP THREE, tell everyone that you can about us!  Even if they aren't Twilight fans!  Remember that our lyrics are fairly subtle with the Twilight references.  If you are on other Twilight-related message baords, spread the word about us!  You could even put a shout-out in your signature on the baords.  That would be awesome!

After that, we're not really sure what to do.  We're hoping that our people can get in touch with the right folks, but we are defintely open for ideas!  If you have one, please share it with us in the comments section!
We really want to rock the Twilight world and getting on the soundtrack would be the best way for us to show 'em we're here to stay!  We are sincerely asking for your help here!  We would so much appreciate it if you all could take a little time to spread the love!  We love all of you fans out there!  Our dream is to be able to go on tour and meet you all and play some killer shows in your area, and if we can get on the soundtrack, that will happen!  From the bottom of my heart, thanks so much for any help!
