Current mood:  argumentative
Category: Writing and Poetry



So here we are...
it's been a long time since we wrote something on here. Your 2nd favourite
band is still here on myspace, didn't move to facebook as most of people.

We're working on our very first album...we still have to sort out some stuff
but what we need to have at this time is a TITLE...it must be attractive, in simple english and quite short...

This is a kind of competition.....the finest title will be chosen as the title of the album...and whoever wrote the title will have the opportunity to choose a picture, to write a message or whatever that will go on our album!!

YOU CHOOSE WHAT!!

Example:
1- Pat from Mexico City sends us a title: "Cigarettes are better than women"
2- We decide that it's the perfect title for our album
3-The title she sent us will be the title of our debut album
4-She wants us to put a picture of her granny in sexy red stockings
5-We will put the picture on the album
6-Nobody will buy it ;-)

So what are you waiting for? we need TITLESSSSSS!

Best regards,

The Van Houtens

Current mood:  awake
English fans: have a nice day.

Italian fans: chiedete al vostro edicolante di fiducia "XL, trendy magazine di Repubblica"...
Lia, la sexy star dei Van Houtens, ne dice di tutti i colori su: musica, vestiti, Commonwealth.
Inoltre lei le sue amiche (Alessandra de Il Genio, Margot dei Tiger Tiger! e Matilde dei Girl With The Gun) si sono lasciate catturare da una reflex Nikon in una serie di scatti da brividi...

Cheers
The Van Houtens

Here comes a promo from your tiny Van Houtens:
Check www. rockit. it and follow the link from the mainpage.


They've been so kind with us...this is what they wrote:

"Una bella scoperta. Canzoncine lo-fi che mettono di buon umore in pochi minuti. Nemmeno un disco alle spalle e una nota catena di fast food gli ha già comprato i diritti per uno spot. C'è da aspettarsi molto da loro"

Translation for foreigners:
The Van Houtens are good

Cheers

Ok so The Van Houtens are finally on your telly; McDonald's (a pretty famous chain of fast foods) made this lousy tv commercial and was looking for a perfect song to put into it. Then somebody came out with "There's a song..."Beautiful day"...my nanny loves it..." His grandmother is a great U2 fan and loves "It's a beautiful day" by U2, not our song...
So some other people thought he was talkin about "(It's a) Beautiful day" by The Van Houtens and this is just the way the stroy goes.We sold our soul to a  Chicken Gourmet.
Now we have to buy those "AS SEEN ON TV" t-shirts @ TopShop (Hey do they need any music for a tv commercial?)

Sorry fo my bad english, I'm american.

Your ordinary Steven Fox

While post-production work was taking place on the new Van Houtens songs, Tosa (lead guitarist) was asked to leave the band. The band cites Tosa's continuing drug addiction as the reason for his dismissal, but emphasises their willingness to take him back once he had addressed his addiction.
the updated line-up of the band is:
-Alan Ramon (songwriting, vocals & guitar)
-Degio Rodriguez (dj & backing vocals)
-Albert Signorino (keyboards & all the other instruments)
-Steven Fox (bass)
-Lia Nanteen (drums & backing vocals)

Ok so we have 2 new songs after a loooot of time.

"Brian Austin Green" is dedicated to guess who?? Brian Austin Green aka David Silver, ordinary guy in "Beverly Hills 90210". It was written in 1971, two years before Brian was born. What a coincidence! It sounds like a surf rockabilly r'n'r song or whatever.

"Tosa Come Back" was written after our friend Alberto Tosa had left the band. We all know about his problems with crack, mdma, ketamine and glues. This song is something like "Give Tosa a Chance" (yes, we all know that peace is much more important than Tosa's rehab).

Cheers
The Van Houtens
