There will be a limited collectors edition CD released over the summer before a retail release
date is scheduled. VAST believes that the Internet makes it possible for listeners to be a part
of the release process. They want you to be a part of deciding what songs should be singles and
they want you to be able to hear the album before anyone else in the music industry does. At the
end of the day, you are what matters most. Thank you for your support!

 Hello
everyone. About a year ago we were toying around with the idea of
selling a special charity item through VAST. Between finishing the
new album, getting ready for a tour and starting a recording studio
the idea sort of fell by the wayside. We are now launching the project
through Cafe Press; it's called the Charity
Love Bear. We plan to rotate charities every so often and we are
starting out by donating 50% of the profit from sales to the Innocence
Project. I would like the other 50% to go to the people in our organization
who have volunteered to help bring VAST to you over the years for
little or no pay. Please show your love to the people who have been
wrongfully prosecuted and the people who have supported us. Please
buy a VAST
Charity Love Bear or make a donation to the Innocence
Project. Everyone who brings their bear to a VAST show on the
next tour starting March 16th will receive a special discount on some
items. I also want to add that we have put up a new VAST site. Thank
you and buy a fucking love
bear.

| VAST 2007 tour update |
[14 Dec 2006|12:21pm] |
Hello everyone and thank you for your support. First off we would like to congratulate everyone who participated in the VAST-"April" album art contest. It will be very difficult to choose because there are so many great ideas. We will announce the top picks soon. The new album will be available early next year.
Jon did a Q & A style audio commentary for "Music For People" which is now available for free to everyone who joined the VAST Fan Club after Dec 13th of 2005. There is also a surprise song, which is a glimpse into the album being released after "April". For all members who joined before Dec 13th 2005 who would like to renew their one-year membership (including a VIP pass to the 2007 tour) it’s only half! Yup, $17.50! All new members must pay $35.95, which once again includes a free VIP pass to Vast’s upcoming 2007 tour. All overseas fan club members do not need to rejoin to gain a VIP pass because Vast did not play overseas in 2006 but you will have to join again for exclusives and downloads. American members who did not get a chance to see Vast in 2006 can also get a free VIP pass on the upcoming tour but will not be able to receive exclusives and downloads without renewing.

VAST have just returned home to Austin from their highly successful US tour. However, the band has had little time to rest, as they have been hard at work putting the finishing touches on their forthcoming album entitled April, slated for release in early 2007. That’s not all - after years of struggle, VAST are proud to announce that they have finally secured the right to sell their third album, Nude, online. The band saw little of the profits from the initial sales of Nude, which was originally released in 2004 on Carson Daly’s label 456 Entertainment. Fans will be relieved to know that this time around the sales from the downloads will be going directly to the band, rather than into Carson Daly’s deep pockets. Nude is available for download at iTunes for $9.99 (that’s less than a dollar a track!) But wait - there’s more! Following the overwhelming success of their recent tour, VAST have decided to do something to show their appreciation to the fans. For a limited time only, the Nude download can be purchased from the band directly for the unheard of price of only $2.99!!! Again, this outrageously low price is for a limited time only, so don’t miss out!

Hello everyone,
We would like to thank all the people who have joined the Vast Fan Club. To show how much it means to us, each and every one of you will be listed in a special thanks section of the new album "April" in stores October 17th.
We would like to extend the thank you to anyone else who joins before August 1st, which is the deadline for the artwork. The retail album will feature six new songs not on the online version and Jon has said this is the best VAST album yet. To join go here: http://www.2blossoms.com/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=2
We will NOT put your name in the new album unless you give us your permission. Please write to the VFC email address and let us know if it is ok for us to put your name in the special thanks section of the new album. Needless to say, we will also require the name you want to appear.
Another big thank you to all participants in the Myspace contest. As an extra bonus the five people with the greatest number of referrals will be invited for dinner with the band when they are in your city! The contest will run until August 16th, so there is still plenty of time to win. For details of the contest please go here: http://www.2blossoms.com/vip/
Some of you may have noticed a small amount of reshuffling of some of the tour dates in August, don't worry, all tickets are still valid for the city they were purchased for, we just need to have less gaps between shows. We will let you know final dates the minute we have them all confirmed.
Thanks again!

You might have noticed Amazon.com this week showed the release date for Turquoise & Crimson as June 27th. They know it's wrong and are changing it back to May 30th. On the subject of Amazon, as a point of interest, they have a deal on where if you buy TOOL's new CD and Turquoise & Crimson together, you save money!
