Joy (juvenile_corrections_facility@hotmail.com): - Wow! Like, 3 years ago, some weirdo gives me a CD that he said he burned for me... songs he liked, and such... I listen to it; a bunch of standard crap that everyone has heard, and they all pretend to like, because it's the cool thing to do... then there were two songs that I genuinely liked, but I didn't know who they were by. I didn't want to go back to this scuz ball and ask him, so I just searched and asked and let myself suffer with the fact that I was getting no results.... then, about a month ago I was listening to one of the cable mood stations, and I heard a song, and I was like, "I like that... and it sounds familiar, but I can't place it." Yeah, it was by Black Lab. The next time I listened to those songs, I was like, "That's who they're by!! It's got to be!" And it was. Ten Million Years and Wash it Away. Great songs!!!! All of your stuff seems great, from what I hear! You need to get back together and make another album... you know, -Just-For-Me-! heh. Just kidding. You guys rock, though.
- Date: Mon Nov 29 19:11
Russ (freedman48@comcast.net): - I just picked up the Blade Trinity soundtrack. I loved your guys track "This Blood". Hopefully you guys will put together another album sooner or later.

Best regards,
Jenni

amanda (nedamanda@hotmail.com): - Hey it's me again...Michael i don't know when you will check this again but i have one question, do ya still have the crazy card I sent from DC? OH yes, and the school is still fighting over the term "Redmen". You are so love by all of us fans from back in the day:P
- Date: Tue Nov 16 17:05
amanda (nedamanda@hotmail.com): - Yes it is me. I remember alot of things...you did get the pic that was sent years ago though right? Wow, what happened I thought you did make it into the navy. Must be nice AZ, i miss it so! been away since 2002, in the airforce now. Inspired by me huh, never heard that before. thanks. talk to ya later.
- Date: Sun Nov 14 20:25
Cameron Gillins (highfidelity0310@yahoo.com): - Hey there its been a while since I've posted here(and I mean a couple a years ago). I was inspired by Amanda....could it really be the one and the same from back in the day. I actually never made it to the navy and I still live in AZ. I actually can't believe you remember that, but I'm sceptical that you remember in the first place, but I'll make a point to check back here again soon.
- Date: Tue Nov 9 08:32

Kane (kanetien@yahoo.com): - Whoa, great to hear from ya Michael. And it's better news to hear that you're still making music! As for "What Child is This," here's the info: it's a double CD from the Album Network called Rock Tuneup 176 and the date on the album says December 5, 1997. The first CD has standard songs by various artist; the second CD has Christmas songs by various artist. Looking at my Black Lab memorabilia I must have around 20 CD's from all the compilation that Black Lab have released. Don't laugh, but I even have a "Time Ago" karaoke CD.

Michael Belfer (not@noemail.com): - Hola Muchachos...
I have not been here for quite some time...but I must say that I'm extremely
flattered that anyone comes here at all...I wanted to answer that question
about the recording we did of "What Child Is This?"...it was done for one of
those radio holiday song compilations...I can't remember what station it
was for...but I do know for a fact that it was one of two studio recordings
that the actual touring version of Black Lab did...which just means it was
Bryan Head on drums,along with me and Geoff...and Paul.
As for an update about what I'm up to.I've been living in Los Angeles
writing and producing with the ever marvelous" Ari Shine".We're actually
playing our first show next week here in town.There are mp3's posted at
http://www.AriShine.com FYI
Happy Haloween to All!!!

Please go to www.blacklabnet.com to check it out.

. (.@.): - I don't know if Michael is around these parts much these days. Your best chance would be to try calling Pigs Head recording studios in San Fran or Hoosier Daddy recording studios. We haven't heard from Michael for a very long time. The other option is to try will from Merriwether (the band).

Annex (anne.leonard@att.net): - I'm trying to get in touch with Michael Belfer about a book of photos Ruby Ray, Sarch and Destroy photographer from the late'70's, is putting together--I'm doing the written history and wanted to get some more info on the Sleepers--I used to write for S&D, Another Room, New York Rocker and Damage and saw the Sleepers many times--hope to hear from Micahel, or find out how to get in touch with him--Thanx Annex

Jake Worley (Smakmazter@hotmail.com): - wow you guys are seriously sooooooo amazing. You have no idea how much you inspired me to become a musician myself. I cant ever stop saying good things about you're music. For reals
- Date: Tue Jul 6 16:48
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - UPDATE Coming soon - I promise! =). The site that the forum was hosted on had to switch servers (my friends server) and so it should be back soon. Just have to get the data from the old machine onto the new one. Paul wrote a new update and he also has some other things I'm going to be releasing on the site. Just be patient we are working on it. It should be finished sometime late this week or early next week. Thanks! - Derek
- Date: Sat Jul 3 13:22
Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Well, it's been almost six months. Time for an update! :)
- Date: Sat Jul 3 09:46
Mike (therubberninja@fsnet.co.uk): -
Hey, Rachel, the offical site has long since moved to www.blacklabnet.com, on which you can find all sorts of goodness that you'll have missed out on, including a 6 song EP!
Oh and guys, speaking of updates I got an EP through the post the other day and with it came a message from Paul, I can't find it now though, so i'll just give you the jist: Hopefully there will be an update soon and a new 14 track CD titled 'Ten Million Years' I think I going to be coming soon, which will feature mostly unreleased old stuff, some acoustic sets and general coolness from what I can remember of what it said, so keep looking at the offical site, cause there should be an update soon.
- Date: Sat Jul 3 07:25
Rachel (Art_Star87@hotmail.com): - Hey, does anyone know if the official site is still around? i thought it was blacklabweb.com something like that but i can't find it anymore.
I remember it having about 2 updates from paul even though they were old, and new pictures and see the sun video..well they wouldnt be new anymore obviously. erm yeh anyway, cheers
Rachel xx

Trevor (trevor@somedomain.com): - Hey,
I just realized I never ripped Sleeps with Angels from my black lab cd and my gf in the military has my cd so I can't get it. Can anyone send me an mp3 of it? Westbrook, if you are still around, hi.
BTW, my gf loves black lab now. :)
- Date: Thu Jul 1 19:47
kris (.@.): - that's why I do it too, they're my favourite band. It would suck if they disappeared altogether. Incedantally, another dude in Denmark just bought the EP this morning.
- Date: Thu Jul 1 16:47
Cameron (highfidelity0310@yahoo): - Well I just wanted to say thanks to all the hard work kris. I have my loyalties and no one I know can say they've even heard of my favorite band but I flew all the way to san francisco to see their show at slims for one night when I was 18 and I can attribut my undying infatuation with being a vocalist to some songs with paul's vocals. I want more from Black Lab and it took some time to where I didn't need more from them. Kris do your thing and I appreciate it. If I could see black lab make a more lasting impression and a better name I'm in, but I will never be able to say that I have another "favorite band" so thank you for keeping my old friends going.
- Date: Tue Jun 29 21:13
Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Wow, Kris. That's a lot of hard work. Up here in Canada, there's no trace of Black Lab. It has been years since I've heard a Black Lab song on the radio...
- Date: Tue Jun 29 21:13
Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Wow, Kris. That's a lot of hard work. Up here in Canada, there's no trace of Black Lab. It has been years since I've heard a Black Lab song on the radio...
- Date: Mon Jun 28 23:57
kris (.@.): - Sorry, don't know why it posted twice.
But one more thing..... "Whatever"..... I thought you said you weren't going to check back here anymore? What's with that? And if you think that you constitute 10% of Black Lab's fan base then you are sorely misinformed my friend. Black Lab has fans all over the world. Keep an eye out on www.lionspridemusic.com for an interview from the band. You may not speak Danish but 5 million citizens of Denmark do.
- Date: Mon Jun 28 23:34
kris (.@.): - What am I doing? Since you asked..... I purchased 500 copies of the ep. That's not a typo.... I bought five hundred copies. So far I've sold Black Lab into Norway, Denmark, Sweden and The Netherlands as well as various states of Australia and parts of New Zealand. I'm regularly lobbying every commercial radio network in Australia (as well as hassling my brother who is a jock for Nova FM in Perth) and I'm also giving the local record co. reps grief here in an attempt to get Black Lab sold more widely in Australia. On top of that.... I am always pitching Black Lab to my clients, most of whom are TV network creatives or advertising agencies, to use Black Lab music on their promo's and TV commercials. You just wait, Black Lab will be on a car commercial one day. On top of THAT...... I have just recently had Black Lab placed on Qantas, Malaysian and Royal Brunei Airlines on the in-flight entertainment network. So up to 1 million people a week now have the chance to hear a Black Lab song while they are flying around the world. Black Lab also will receive royalties from this. I've made Black Lab available on www.cdbaby.com as well as having it added to the Auricast network for retail stores in th USA. If you walk into your favourite store and hear Black Lab on the stereo, chances are it's because of me. If you have picked up a copy of the Time Ago video and the Live at Rock Candy CD recently then you can also trace it back to me.
So..... that's what I'm doing mate.

whatever (whatever@whatever.com): - Well, I truly didn't expect 3 responses (or 4 additional comments) in one day to my post. Anger is much easier to work with than apathy. Yes, I was hard on Blacklab and yes I think your responses are very fair. So, to Kris, your response is the most interesting. What are YOU doing to help the situation. Well, let's open some dialogue on what WE are going to do to help the situation. How are WE going to help Derek, the only fan doing something to help market Blacklab to a mass audience? How are WE going to get Blacklab known? Well, of course some communication from Paul and Andy would help. But, regular conversation on this board trying to solve this challenge would certainly be a strong step. So, how about we each throw in our two cents on ideas that will help Blacklab and then vote on which of the ideas to start on first to make it happen. I'll start: To help make Dereks site more appealing to all Blacklab fans and perhaps encourage regular updates from Paul and the gang. What if we submitted fan art work? Now, lets hear the next idea. --Scott
- Date: Mon Jun 28 20:18
kris (.@.): - I think it's a bit unfair to blame Derek for any lack of news from the band. He's not working for the band. He's just a fan like the rest of us doing whatever he can to make it a bit easier to get BL news out. If it wasn't for Derek a lot of communication might never have happened. I agree that it's frustrating to have something you really love seeming like it may never come to pass....but imagine how much more frustrating it must be for Paul? How many times has he been around this mountain?
So... I guess I have to ask you, "Whatever"...... what are YOU doing to help the situation?
- Date: Mon Jun 28 14:09
Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - By the way, it's nice to see that you're back Tara. I like the new BVA album, but I'm waiting for more stuff that's similar to Villains or the Frog Album. (a tall order indeed)
- Date: Mon Jun 28 14:07
Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Blah. It's discouraging. These things tend to involve momentum. Right now Black Lab has none. Hopefully Paul and Andy will give it another go, but I wouldn't blame them if they didn't. It's hard to believe that the EP was a year ago, or that Learn to Crawl is three years ago. (viva la Spiderman 2, by the way) I'll forever keep my fingers crossed, but I stopped holding my breath a long time ago.
- Date: Mon Jun 28 10:07
Stupid (stupid@blacklab.net): - I agree that the lack of updates sucks, but I don't think you can consider yourself an authority on what the guys have been up to. Personally I find it very hard to believe that they've been doing anything but working hard to try and make it, it think you just might be underestimating how easy it is to successfully manouver into the music industry.
And to be honest, I don't think you can truely call yourself a black lab fan if you just prepared to give up on them.
- Date: Mon Jun 28 04:49
Whatever (Whatever@blacklab.net): - What's happened to the board on the other website Derek? And what happened to the update from Paul? I think Mr. Annoyed might have Blacklab's number on his comments. That's exactly what Paul does makes a website, posts once or twice and you don't hear from them again, and that just sucks. I'm tired of checking these sites every week in some hope of hearing anything. So, I guess I'm just not going to check them anymore. Good job, Paul, Andy & Derek you just got rid of 10% of your fan base with one person. Maybe you should work harder so the other nine won't lose interest. Best of luck with all that you do.
- Date: Tue Jun 8 08:42
Tara (tara@fanpimp.com): - Hey Guys,
You probably remeber me from back in the day working on Black Lab stuff...I now head up a street team for Brian Vander Ark who was the lead singer of the Verve Pipe. I think some of you might like his new stuff. If you like what you hear http://www.bvamusic.com then please come over and join the street team.There is no one better at what they do then Black Lab fans!
http://www.fans.fanpimp.com/vanderark
It would be great to work with some of you again!!!

Aldershot (blfan@blfans.com): - Yeah, I agree. And even bad news would be better than no news; help the fans know where they stand and how they can offer any support.
- Date: Thu May 27 18:38
Annoyed (Annoyed@annoyed.com): - Derek, maybe you can shed some light here. Why doesn't Paul or anyone from the band ever give any updates. There M.O. seems to be start a new web site and post a single message maybe two and those are usually apologies for not communicating of updating the site.
I appreciate that Paul & Andy are working hard trying to get their incredible music out, but why don't they let us know what they are going through? I think I speak for all of us Blacklab fans when I say we want to support them even through their hard times. But, that's real tough when they don't communicate. Why all the secrecy?
I'd be happy to even here from you, Derek, to post some update for them on your site. Anything. The most succesful web sites update at least once a week maybe every other week. Regular updates keep the fans excited and coming back for more even if music isn't getting out (ex. Toadies, Weezer, Better Than Ezra, etc.). Paul or Andy should participate in board discussions more often. Post more news even if it's just saying they blew their nose that week.
I'd like to know if they're creating a huge body of work in their down time so they can crank out CD after CD when they do get signed. Perhaps, they could have an art contest for concert posters or CD cover art. Or just post fan art like the White Stripes.
I guess what I'm saying is that I miss them and just want to know what's going on and how can I help them on their journey.

Poopstains (poopstains@juno.net): - Yeah, there is a new site, but it's been up and not updated for about 5 months now. I guess Paul is busy touring, or flipping burgers or something. Seriously, I'd just love to hear what all has been going on, concert dates...something other than a new site every couple months, the EP and a shirt.

now, all that aside, can anyone tell me who performs lead vocals for the Black Lab song Keep myself Awake? It sounds eerily like James Marsters, lead singer of ghost of the robot.. if anyone can shed light on this subject, thanks muchly!
And, again, sorry if this isn't the black lab discuss I think it is. ^_^

Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Hiya Francois. There are many Black Lab fans and this message board right here is the one that gets the most activity because it is always changing. The blacklabnet.com site hasn't changed in a while. The rule goes, "the site that updates most often gets the most hits". We are all anxiously awaiting more material from Paul and Black Lab. In the meantime, yes - the EP is quite good.

Monica (shimmerchk@yahoo.com): - I got it last Friday, woo hoo! Its really incredible and I can't stop listening to it. The whole cd is really different than anything out there that I have been hearing, and for that I am truly appreciative. Its a bummer that there are only 6 songs, but I love each one of them. See the Sun is my favorite, it amazes me that this song makes me both happy and sad at the same time. Thank you so much Black Lab for putting out such a breathtaking cd for your fans. We love you, hang in there you will always have my support!!

Rob (draggingmind@hotmail.com): - The New EP: I ordered mine from Texas and received it within a week and a half. There's always exceptions, but mine took no time at all!!! By the way, worth every penny, dont wait to buy it!!!!!!!
- Date: Sat Nov 22 10:07
Paul (UofA_Paul_42@yahoo.com): - Hey Monica, it unfortunately took me like 2 months to get my CD, but it is really really good! I am actually listening to it right now. I would say if you don't get it within like 2 or 3 weeks, definately e-mail them directly and ask what the deal is, because once I finally got a hold of them they said they had sent it out within a week of my initial order. But it is a really gread CD, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. It's too bad there are only 6 songs!

Also, I just scrolled down and read about some problems people had in waiting a long time for the cd to arrive.......I just want to say, if it takes awhile I understand, I just wanted to get an idea of how long it may be before I received it and I wasn't complaining or anything because its only been a week. :)
- Date: Fri Nov 14 12:05
Monica (shimmerchk@yahoo.com): - Hey everyone! Just wanted to see if anyone has bought the six song EP (See the Sun) from blacklabnet.com? If you did, how long was it before you received it and what do you think of it? I am so excited to get it and I am running to the mailbox everyday waiting for it to arrive, but its only been a week and I am SO impatient! I wish I still lived in Cali so I could see them live again. :(

- Date: Fri Nov 7 21:57
Kane (kanetien@yahoo.com): - Did anyone make the show last night? I think I was one of two people that wasn't on the guestlist. I left after they finished so I didn't stay to get my free t-shirt or to get my CD signed (definitely will next time). They have a new bass player, it wasn't Brian. Paul did say that STAR 98.7 was playing See The Sun. Hope to see more Labbers at the next show.

poooor french girl (ririetitange@caramail.com): - i've just download ALL black lab' s songs ( i promise i'll buy the cd as soon as i'll find it , but , it's really hard to find it in France , so ...)and i don't find the Hole in the sky lyrics anywhere !!!bouhh
but now that i've got all the black lab's songs i could found , i'm sure , black lab is like nine inch nails : ALL songs are perfect and i can't make a choice
i'm in love !!!!

Steve (angellus1984@hotmail.com): - Just wanted 2 say i agreed with the comments made by Jon, i think it was. The pop industry is full of non-talented, marketable 'pretty' people, who come out with the same old, monotinious, boring crap they always have.
Also wondered, is there 'new' black lab stuff i can buy? Ive got the 'your body above me' album, i cant seem 2 find ne thing else however.
If ne 1 has the time, id appreciate an email, if not just post here and ill keep checking back.
Wud love 2 c BL back in england, i heard u guys played Leeds festival a few years back, i cud kick myself because i wasnt there. I hope u guys get the chance 2 show every1 what 'real' music is all about.
Later

Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I read an article on mxtabs.net that basically said it's more expensive to sign established bands, so the record labels resort to one-hit wonders. They can sign low-profile bands to unfair contracts, exploit them, then drop them. If all the bands sound generic enough, they can be easily replaced. That's why pop music is being pushed so hard. Because it's so generic. Any of those "pop stars" can easily be replaced.

Tier (positrontier@yahoo.com): - This is really bs, and this is the problem with the RIAA. The RIAA (Recording Industry A**holes of America) is so obcessed with sueing 12 year olds, that the really fabulous bands end up getting treated like this, 16VOLT, Gravity Kills, you name it. I am so tired of the crap of untalented idiots like Justin Timberlake and all the other crap on the radio. It's completely absurd how such a great band with a huge fan base can't get a distribution deal. There is no reason for this, just because the lead singer doesn't have a c cup to shake in your face, does the RIAA even LISTEN to QUALITY music anymore!!! I'M TIRED OF WAITING!!!

My name's Steve, ive been a big fan of Black Lab for a few years now, i absoloutely adore the 'body above me' album, genius in my eyes! I was just a bit concerned that i havent heard much from u guys of late (last thing i ever saw song wise was 'learn to crawl' on the spider-man soundtrack), u guys r still going right? I would hate to think that people would be deprived of your music! Keep it coming guys please!
If anybody wants to fill me in, ive included my email addy.

kristian (kris@oz.com): - I emailed Will about 6 to 9 months ago now and asked him how the new material he wrote with Michael was going. He said that Michael and him wrote a few tunes together and that's about as far as it went. He said things didn't really work out with Michael. He actually sounded really down about the whole thing, quite depressed. That's all I know.

Draggingmind (draggingmind@hotmail.com): - Its been a long time since Ive looked at the Sony boards or this one...good to see the dream is still breathing. I also noticed that Meriwether no longer has their website...anyone have the scoop on what happened to them? I know a hardcore fan of the original band has to know something.

Rain rocks dat booty (peepeemilk@boohoo.com): - Took you long enough to mouth, crap...like 5 days....anyways. I never said that I was never a hardcore fan or didn't like the music. I have the EP and a T-shirt. I bought a "Your Body above me" promotional flat on Ebay and display it proudly in my house. I'm just tired of bands doing 3 shows and then wondering when the record deal comes in. Some of my favorate bands have only a few records either produced by themselves or a small company. I would like to see Black Lab tour hard...come to Dallas, or Denton. There's a huge fanbase down there to attract.

Paul (UofA_Paul_42@yahoo.com): - Hey, I still love Black Lab's music. I complained because I e-mailed them twice, tried calling, and never got a response. It had been two months and I refuse to allow anyone I am paying money to completely ignore me and not deliver anything. That's just not cool, especially if they are ignoring a fan. But look at the stir I have caused! Now the guitarist knows this page exists, the band is apparently making much more of an effort now to meet the demands of fans, and I even finally got a response and hopefully I'll see my CD soon. Heck, if I had known my one small complaint would have done so much good, I would have done it sooner.
Sorry if I offended anyone, even the band. But I really tried to approach this very diplomatically. Two months was more than a reasonable time to wait, and I did my best to contact them. I appreciate their music very much, and appreciate everyone's zealousness here towards the band, even when that zealousness is occasionally negatively directed at me. I can deal, won't be losing sleep at night.
Well, hopefully I'll have my CD soon and I'll get to hear some really great stuff, just like you are all doing. Peace out guys.

westbrook, forwarded from Andy Ellis (westbrooky@yahoo.com): - Guys, I'm sorry to burst the bubble but I think it's neccessary.
First let me say that I have been the guitarist in Black Lab for three years now. We have been trying to fill orders for cd's as best we can. Yes this means we literally take days to fill envelopes ourselves, Paul included, as well as some of our friends. When you ship out thousands of items chances are
that a few are going to be faulty. We are not a big establishment and are not UPS. We keep pressing on trying to make all this work because people like you guys are out there craving and supporting it. Trashing Paul or anyone involved in our enterprise is naive. We are doing everything we can to get our music to all of you as we have been for years. For every success like "the most recent
Spiderman soundtrack" there are ten failures for whatever reason. Hopefully we soon will have an official board and updated website, but since the Sony boards's dissolvement, this has been the only place for fans to regroup. The support is so much appreciated. I just stumbled across this here on the internet today. Please remember that this website is no longer an official source of information for Black Lab. Until we have a new board though, we encourage you all to post here. If there are any problems with the merchandise, the email address "blacklablist@sbcglobal.net" is the
official place to ask questions and report problems. We hope you all
are well and assure you that we are working our hardest to bring Black Lab
on to a bigger and better scale than it even was in the past. Big things are
happening as I write this. You people here give us the desire to make
this happen more than anything. Thanks for your support.

Not Telling (no@way.com): - Rain, You're an even bigger w a n k e r than the other guy. You can't seriously say you're a fan and sit there and sledge Paul like you did. You're F#%king deluded man.
- Date: Sun Oct 5 19:50
Rain (loadofcrap@youguysaresheep.com): - Wow, calling him a wuss cause it's been over a months since he's gotten his merchandise. I dunno about you, but if I wouldn't have gotten mine for that long, I would have done the same thing. Luckily, I got mine after about 4 days, but my order was number 3. I also got a free shirt, even though I didn't order one, hahahahaha. The main issue is that even though he's "touring," in Hollywood, every few months and then gets mad about no record deal, he still owes it to the fans to get the orders to them. I know sending a CD and a shirt takes a huge bite out of his Buger King paycheck, but come on. Order something from e-bay and after a week or two, you'd be whining and posting bad feedback. This is no different than ordering one of your back issues of Mini's-weekly. Calling someone a wuss for paying their hard earned money for a CD to support Paul is retarded...let's see...Michael's gone, Bryan's gone, Goeff's gone, Eve is gone...signs point to something is wrong with Paul...Remember guys, he's in a rock band, so boohoo, I'm working a 9-5 job. If Black Lab wants to keep their current fans...then they need to get the merchandise to them...Good luck Paul...the faithful ones are fading.

Paul (UofA_Paul_42@yahoo.com): - Um, yeah, I don't know where you order CD's from, but it usually takes less than I week for me to get anything. And I order online pretty frequently. Unfortunately (or fortunately if I ever get my CD) I was able to file a report with PayPal but because the order was over 30 days ago, they won't do a formal investigation. So I'm pretty much screwed if I never see my CD. Here's hoping I see it one day.....

Lilly (lillybell2036@yahoo.com): - I think that all of you are over reacting about the length of time that it is taking to receive the EP's. Generally when you order cd's over the internet it takes about 6 - 8 weeks to receive them. So, chill out. I am sure you will receive them soon. Patience is a virtue!

I too feel that any amount of time will be worth the wait for songs by BL that I haven't heard or just something new, but I'm going on week 4 as well and it's really not a big deal, not a whole lot of money, however this is also the first new thing in a while(with the exception of the Spiderman Soundtrack) that my favorite band has come out with so I think we need to have an understanding that they obviously are spending a lot more of their time on putting something together to have a new album(hopefully). Either way I feel pretty confident that it's ganna be worth the wait.

Derek (none@none.com): - I would understand if it was a lot of money, but it's a $10 CD, not the end of the world if it shows up late, it's worth the wait.

Paul (UofA_Paul_42@yahoo.com): - Yeah, I still haven't gotten mine yet. And I e-mailed the band at both of the e-mail addresses they provided paypal and still no response. I'm glad that they are a "rock band" and not a "retail fulfilment company" but seriously, he can't say, sorry for the wait, we'll get it out as soon as we can? October 1st will be two months waiting at that point and that's when I'm going to request a refund through paypal. I really hope I get the cd before then.

Jake (windman@howling.com): - It took over a month.. I'm thinking more like 8 weeks to get my copy of the ep.. and I never did get the shirt yet.. I hope that is still on its way.. anyhow, I'm loving it and it was worth the wait! Glad I found these messages here, I was wondering where the BL community was since the sony forums went down... Take it easy folks. (Can't wait till I can sport the shirt! There's some advertising!)

Derek (none@none.com): - To all the people who haven't got the EP yet, I just talked to Paul via email and he said to keep in mind they're a rock band, not a retail fulfillment company. They're getting the CD's out as quick as they can. Everything was sent out this week. So you should have it by next week at the latest.
- Date: Thu Sep 18 13:21
Hohez (sheepdog@cox-internet.com): - I ordered my copy the first day i saw the page, and I got mine less than a week later.
I love this band with all my heart, but you guys waiting for a month or more are really getting screwed. There was a number that came with my copies receipt, but I no longer have it, but I think when you order, the online receipt has a number to call directly to that paypal seller. Has anyone tried calling that number and seeing what they say?
Hopefully Paul won't take as long as it usually takes him to update his sites......7 months to a year we wait for more word, or updates, and now it seems, him sending the cds is the same way.

Phil (pabocci1@NOSPAM.hotmail.com): - Jon, it sounded to me like roughly a half-dozen posters on the board received the CD; mostly people who ordered it within a day of the initial notification from Paul and Co. that it was available. It is entirely possible that they got backlogged and may be waiting for another printing of the CD, or that other "real life" issues have gotten in the way. Hopefully everyone will receive their CDs soon, since they're so darn good...

I'd like to share Warren's music with all the people that never heard of him. I'm looking for his newer music like "Fallen Down" or "The Real Thing". If you could help me out that would be great. Thank you.

Paul (UofA_Paul_42@yahoo.com): - So yesterday marked a month since I've ordered my EP, and still I arrive heartbroken to my mailbox. I think I'll give it another month, I think that is fair, and then I'll go through the process of trying to get my money back. Anybody here think I'm being unreasonable? I've tried e-mail and I've got no response. I guess I could be accused of impatience, but hopefully I'm not being to unreasonable. Hopefully it arrives soon! I want to hear what you guys have been hearing!

If I don't get it within 30 days, I have to submit a PayPal complaint so I can get my money back. I really want the EP though and don't want to complain, but I don't want to get screwed either.....
- Date: Wed Aug 27 23:36
Derek (none@none.com): - It took a couple weeks for mine. At the time, Paul emailed and said that his computer went down and he couldn't access the ordering information from PayPal. That may be the case again. No worries, you'll get the EP as soon as it's possible for him to access the info. It's definitely worth the wait.
- Date: Tue Aug 26 06:54
Paul (UofA_Paul_42@yahoo.com): - Yeah, I'm still waiting for my EP. I e-mailed both addresses that are registered with PayPal a couple weeks ago and still haven't heard a response. Even if he was really busy, couldn't he drop a quick line saying, "Sorry, CD is on it's way?" I wonder if I shall ever see the labor of my 10 dollars.....

Kane (kanetien@yahoo.com (formerly EbowBelfer@aol.com)): - Holy pajamas! The new EP is so good, but fails to capture the power and energy of their live performances. Was hoping they would include the song "Without You," now that's a hit. I need more Black Lab!
- Date: Tue Aug 19 13:34
Molson33 (olp33@yahoo.com): - I've been looking all over for Black Lab related news, and this was the closest I found that looked recent. Nice to know there are some fans still kickin around. I am grateful for those that posted info about how to get the new EP, i'm going to get all over that like stink on a monkey. Anyone know of how to get other songs (not off the EP) so i can rekindle my love of BL? I have the standard:
Your Body Above Me CD
Keep Myself Awake
Learning To Crawl
Gates of the Country (acoustic)
Any help would be awesome. Hope the boys get things going and get back out there, 'cause that would rock.

Paul (UofA_Paul_42@yahoo.com): - Yeah, I dunno, I tried e-mailing them directly to ask them what the status of the order was, but I haven't gotten a response yet. But it's good to hear that others eventually got their discs, so hopefully mine will arrive soon!

Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Track List for the EP 1. See the Sun 2. Remember 3. Perfect Girl 4. Ecstacy 5. Learn to Crawl 6. Gone According to the website the first five tracks will be on the new album. Not so sure about Gone. Maybe. Maybe not. I don't expect "I Don't Love You Like I Used To" to be on the new album, but I don't have any basis for this assumption. Just a guess, really. Who knows? Derek?

Tier (positrondave@comcast.net): - Qusetions, the new LP..."I Feel Fine" on the front cover, thats one of my favorite songs(don't start with the whole p2p thing I BOUGHT "Your Body Above Me"), is that song going to be on the new album? Does anyone know the song list? And can ANYONE tell me where "I Don't Love You (Like I Used To)" came from?
- Date: Fri Aug 1 10:08
Phil (pabocci1@NOSPAM.hotmail.com): - Kristian, I must respectfully disagree. I think Jon's got a valid point. Think about the competition out there right now, and the trends. I applaud the band for continuing to strive, but I don't think I'm shocked by the difficulties they've faced (however unfortunate). Not only was their hit 6 years ago, but you don't see it played now as much as, say, a comperable hit by Tonic. That may be offset by having a respected track on the Spider-Man Soundtrack, but that's iffy. Were those reviews crap? All us die-hard fans certainly think so. Are there better reviews out there? Some, certainly. Sadly I don't think critical opinion is enough pro-BL to really help their case much. I'm afraid they were written off too frequently as "vaguely U2-esque," which I think sells them VASTLY short (and I'm sure all of you agree). They've got a difficult gammut to run, but I think with the support we can provide (and hopefully the new fan base they'll get) then they can succeed. IN SPITE all their past adversity.

Kristian (none0f ya@business.com): - ok, seriously jon....... those reviews were crap.....but look who else they bagged in the review....Tonic, Toad.... hello???!!! The reviewer was probably just some college journalist wannabe who gets off on Britney and Back Street Boys. They would be far more forgotten than you say Black Lab is. I'm sure I could dig up some equally positive reviews. It all depends on how you look at it. Yes, YBAM was somewhat dark but can you honestly see the same darkness in the new stuff? Especially with a title like I Feel Fine? This ep is gonna go off. Wait and see.
- Date: Thu Jul 31 13:11
Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Three things working against Black Lab. 1) Their hit is 6 years old. I doubt too many people remember who they are. 2) They've had more nasty splits with record labels than albums released. This might act as a red flag to anyone wanting to sign them. 3) They're not nu-metal, mall-punk or indie. I think that's why they don't have a record deal. Just because we love Black Lab doesn't mean everybody does. Remember these?

Phil (pabocci1@NOSPAM.hotmail.com): - Jon -
As best I can figure, he's asking us not to make the CD available online for others. Paul's well aware of how much unreleased BL stuff the fans have been sharing since the original lineup faded, and is just (wisely) trying to protect his interests. A fledgling band needs all the funds it can get, so each sale is vital (and each upload hurts).
- Date: Tue Jul 29 16:42
Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I was wondering what "P.S. Thanks for not uploading" meant.
- Date: Mon Jul 28 22:45
Kristian (none0f ya@business.com): - OK.....now that the cd is out and we're all grateful it is.....let's make a deal and actually make good on all our pledges of support to the band and NOT post the ep on the net. Geez, it's only 8 bucks. Buy it. Don't rip it.
- Date: Mon Jul 28 16:53
Stevil (stevii@aol.com): - I just received my copy of the EP today and it is nothing less than amazing. If anyone is holding out on buying this because they have a few of these songs from the file sharing networks, don't....all songs on the EP are updated versions w/ the exception of Learn to Crawl, which is the same as featured on the Spiderman soundtrack. As the previous mini-reviews have basically said, the new songs have a more refined and definitely improved sound. Some of the lyrics have been changed around a bit too. This is just what Black Lab fans have been needing to hold them over until a record label that recognizes talent can sign them, if such a thing exists anymore. I'd never heard the tracks "Remember", "Ecstasy", or "Gone" before the EP, and I couldn't be more impressed. I had some high expectations for these ones before hearing, and they definitely surpassed anything I had set. Definitely get a copy of this if you haven't picked one up already. It's the best new alternative music i've heard in quite a while. Just thought i'd throw in my two cents for anyone that's still lurking around this area. The sony board appears to be a thing of the past, so hopefully they'll get a new one set up at blacklabnet.com. Alright, have fun people, congrats to Paul and the band for getting the EP together and giving us new Black Lab music, as promised. Later.
- Date: Mon Jul 28 08:23
Hunter Royal (C_Hunter_Royal@yahoo.com): - I have to say I'm very happy with the EP. I don't think I've listened to a 6 song CD quite as much as I have this one. I seriousy don't think I've listened to a full length album more than this, other than "Your body above me," and possibly my Nixon's albums. Hopefully some record company with a brain will sign Black Lab and push them like they should be. Geffen and Sony are too greedy and testicle-less. I hope everyone will support Paul, and the rest of the line-up(don't be mad for forgetting ya'lls names) and buy the CD rather than snagging it from Kazaa, Grockster, or other places like that. It's only $8 + $2 S&H. I'm have about the same feelings about the songs. See the Sun - better than the old version, smoother and definalty a newer style. Remember - awesome extra sounds used to make the song have a fuller sound to it. Perfect Girl - cleaner, and a good song to play along with. Ecstacy - I can't say enough on how awesome this song it. I don't think anyone could match Paul's voice as good as Eve did. Learn to Crawl - still awesome. Gone - so happy to have yet another great new song to hear from the guys. Here's the site to buy the CD and maybe a BL shirt printed up from Paul - http://www.blacklabnet.com/buy.html
- Date: Fri Jul 25 06:42
Phil (pabocci1@NOSPAM.hotmail.com): - An update from my last comment...THE NEW EP ARRIVED YESTERDAY! If you haven't gotten it yet, please do...its excellent. My thoughts on each track are as follows:
See the Sun - I've heard the opening music many times from the Sony site, but it was nice to hear the full song. Takes a little getting used to if you're used to the old version, but not bad.
Remember - fabulous song. Instant classic, will become one of my favorites, I'm sure.
Perfect Girl - Slightly cleaned up/modified version of the song on this site. Still a good song.
Ecstacy - Since many of us had heard about half the song from a clip on the Sony site, I was anxious to hear the whole thing. Its very good; makes me miss Eve.
Learn to Crawl - Even if this was just a throwaway rock song for the band, it got them some exposure and I think its a fabulous song. Since I was never able to buy the Spiderman SDTK its nice to finally have it on CD.
Gone - The new demo. Interesting work; reminds me somewhat of the old BL. By the end of the song it had my attention. I think after a few more listens I'll be hooked.
Overall, not a bad way to wet our appetites for the full CD. Thanks Paul and co!

Phil (Nospam@hotmail.com): - Guess I'm not the first to make my way over here now that Sony is gradually tearing down the remains of www.blacklabweb.com. Not that I'm exactly sad to see the Sony site go, but I do miss the updates and communion that went on there. I hope all the old regulars show up here (it looks like a few already have). Has anyone else received the EP yet? I ordered it about two weeks ago...was hoping to hear from Paul that he sent it, but not yet. Anyone hear anything? Well, I'll be around, so keep in touch.

I bought it thinking it looked alright and woah it was COOL. Smooth yet dangerous and full of emotion. I dont know WHY it would have been in the Under $20 bargain bin but I tell you this: IT WAS A BAGAIN. One of the best albums I've ever bought and it dint cost me an arm and a leg. You guys go right up there with my other favourites. Rammstein, Linkin Park and, now, Black Lab!

Rain (StupidRecord@hurryup.com): - To tell the truth, I think Paul is waiting out for the the big money deal. I understand that music is his job and you gotta make money doing it, but c'mon, don't be greedy. You don't need a 10 million dollar deal to live. Go to Island records or something. Some offshoot label of a bigger company...Remember what Geffen did to you?

Melissa (honeybee_77@msn.com): - Your Body Above Me is the theme album for my husband's and my relationship. It's 100 percent down to every word! If you only the knew the remarkable similarities...seems like it was written especially for us!! Black Lab is extremely talented in every composure of music. They are true artists and deserve reconition with a lucrative record deal! $$$$

Wolfie (thoughtsandchaos@yahoo.com): - Lyrics to "Circus Lights":
Come on and spend the night
Under the circus light
Wanna see you high above the crowd
You know I'd swallow fire
And I'm falling off the wire
Too many times before
And you're asking me to show you more love
CHORUS:
More life, more heat
You're asking me, shaking, burning
Show you more, more life, more heat
You asking me, can't say what comes
When these circus lights go out
I'll be the tattoed man
You can be the acrobat
I'll try to catch you when you fall
And we'll be together then
Like a pair of siamese twins
Intwined against the floor
Tell me what more could you ask for more
CHORUS
(circus lights glow)
(circus lights go out)
I ain't innocent
No one's innocent
Still like to hear the big crowd roar
And when I see that light
Everybody dressed in white
Will you be there by the door
Will you show me what I'm looking for
More light, more heat
I'm asking please, shake me, burn me
Show more love, more light, more heat
You asking, we can't say what comes
When these circus lights go out
When these circus lights
(unintelligable gibberish)

Rivendor (Em@il): - Learn to Crawl Lyrics:
You can laugh, you can feel fine
You can dance with a little twist
I tell you, pretty red-haired babe
You forget that I exist
Can you see yourself in my bed at night?
Would you leave me at the side of the road?
Would you walk right up to me?
Would you talk to me? (I'm already...)
(..asking) Down on my
Knees (I'm already...)
(...begging) Begging you
Please: Can you teach me how to
Fly? (C'mon!) Can't you see I'm scared to
Die? (C'mon!) And I've only just
Begun to learn to
Crawl; Can you teach me how to
Fight? (C'mon!) Would you keep me up all
Night? (C'mon!) Will you be there on the
Ground if I should
Fall? Fall...
...for you
I can feel it like the spider's sting
Like a memory in my mouth
I feel like the morning fell
Like the bottom's falling out
I can see what's up there above it all
And down in the valley below
I can walk right up to you
I can talk to you (I'm already...)
(..asking) Down on my
Knees (I'm already...
...begging) Begging you
Please: Can you teach me how to
Fly? (C'mon!) Can't you see I'm scared to
Die? (C'mon!) And I've only just
Begun to learn to
Crawl; Can you teach me how to
Fight? (C'mon!) Would you keep me up all
Night? (C'mon!) Will you be there on the
Ground if I should
Fall? Fall...
...for you. Fall...
...for you
(Na-na, na, na, na)
(Na-na, na, na, na)
(Na-na, na, na, na)
(Na-na, na, na, na)
(Na-na, na, na, na)
(Na-na, na, na, na)
(Na-na, na, na, na)
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
(Na-na, na, na, na)
aaaaaaaaaaaaah! Can you teach me how to
Fly? (C'mon!) Can't you see I'm scared to
Die? (C'mon!) And I've only just
Begun to learn to
Crawl; Can you teach me how to
Fight? (C'mon!) Would you keep me up all
Night? (C'mon!) Will you be there on the
Ground if I should
Fall? Fall...
(Na-na...)

Susannah (fragilemacabre@yahoo.com): - Hey everyone.
I haven't been a fan for very long, just since mid-2001, when I heard "Keep Myself Awake" on the BtVS soundtrack. Since then, I've been pretty hooked, went out and got "Your Body Above Me" mucho quick. Adoration followed. Even with my boyfriend who doesn' particularly love Black Lab, it's remained my favourite band, and for me that's a lot. Particularly after hearing "Can't Keep the Rain." Darned good song. Well just wanted to put my two cents in...
- Date: Fri Jan 24 18:04
Wolfie (thoughtsandchaos@yahoo.com): - Yes, I'd have to agree Black Lab is fairly freaking cool. Keep Myself Awake and Gates of the Country are very very awesome, I'd have to agree. Ironically enough, some nights I have a hard time sleeping because I keep on thinkg of the lyrics to Keep Myself Awake... and as of late I've been humming She Loves Me in the middle of class. Very good stuff, if you were still here I'd tell you to keep it up.
- Date: Thu Jan 23 17:28
bronwyn (bronwynmckenzie@hotmail.com): - Hey have you guys checked out School Yard Junkie? I think it's Geoff from Black Lab's new band. My friend found it on MP3.com. There's 3 songs up and they are really cool. Plus Geoff is soooo cute. Anyone know about this?

I just got introduced to Black Lab and they rock. This site looks dead though. Has the band broken up? I couldn't find any info about anything new. Your help would be much apreciated.

Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I know Learn to Crawl was written after Spiderman was already wrapped, but they could've at least used the song during the credits. As for the new album - I don't think we will ever see it. Go listen to YBAM. Then when you're done, listen to it again.
- Date: Tue Dec 31 15:17

Squeegie Dude (abuse@narf.net): - wow, where do these people come from? and who the hell is zac alloy? on to business. Launch (owned by Yahoo!) has Black Lab ring tones for your mobile http://launch.yahoo.com/ringtones/artist.asp?artistID=1031574 song include: "Black Eye," "Tell Me What to Say," "Wash It Away," "Learn to Crawl" and "Time Ago." only "Tell Me What to Say" and "Time Ago" sound remotely like the real deal, and it's not a great rendition of "Time Ago" imho. hope everyone is having a decent holiday.

Brian (Brian_Espinosa@hotmail.com): - Wow... I didn't know there was so much still going on at the old message boards.
Go to the new site: www.blacklabweb.com
There is no new info there, but the message board is still up and running, and that is what the band uses to keep people updated until they get yet ANOTHER site up and running. They are currently searching for a new label for their album. Paul Durham is the only original member of the band. I believe Michael Belfer was playing with a band called Meryweather in the Bay Area for a while. I'm not sure if he still is or not.
That's all for now. Take care... and head over to the new message board. Be prepared to do some reading... ;)

You've done countless songs for movie soundtracks, btw they are excellent, but I've found a total of 20 of your songs (not including 'your body above me'), that's about enough for two albums, you guy are great!, it's been over 5 years since 'your body above me', You're to great of a band.

"... is about taking a traumatic event and doing the cleanse you have to do in order to live through it -- and learn from it." Paul Durham
wash it in the sea let it soak all night wash it in the sea let the saltwater wash it away soak it in bleach till it's white on white soak it in bleach till the blood just washes away hang it in the wind let it blow all night hang it up high let the high wind blow it away. hang it in the wind let the sun burn bright hang it in the wind till the blood just washes away i have waited wasted years for the child that's come and gone today say what about this wasted fear how can i just turn and wash it away if i can then i will wash it away if she can then she will wash it away forty years spent one by one forty years of life just slipping away what i'd give for a firstborn son forty years of blood just washing away i have waited wasted lives i have waited long enough i'd say say what about this wasted child how can i just turn and wash it away if i can then i will wash it away if she can then she will wash it away send me an angel send me the ghost that i was that i am i will wash it away she will wash it away

"... is about a very specific relationship i had in high school. i wanted to evoke that feeling you have when you're in love, having sex for the first time -- everything so on edge." Paul Durham
i watch your window for hours moon has set down without us all by ourselves riding in the front seat watch the sun come up all by ourselves we would run remember it was so long ago it was a long time ago feel your hand close beside me hear the highway behind me all by ourselves we made love under the sleeping moonless night all by ourselves we would run remember it was so long ago it was a long time ago i couldn't stop you crying or stop myself from fighting back i tried but never hard enough don't you remember love all by myself i can see it like it's right before my eyes by myself time goes by remember it was so long ago it was a long time ago

is there something you'd like to do tonight i got some bridges to burn i'd like to fly away tonight for whatever it's worth keep the salt out of my eyes can you keep the heat in the air maybe i'm making the whole thing up maybe you're not even there i called your machine just to hear your voice i know you were listening when all i could hear was noise and all the demons around my bed call your name like they want you dead but i can't keep the rain from getting in one more night i set fire to the car tonight to keep from running away i needed something loud and bright to keep the memory at bay sometimes i shout a lot there's things i know how to say sometimes i get scared i just get carried away i called your machine just to hear your voice but i can't keep the rain from getting in one more night well i call your name just to hear the sound hang in the air as i walk around but i can't keep the rain from getting in one more night

"... is the first outright devotional love song i've ever written. typing up the lyrics for the cd book, i was startled by how ambivalent they are, how distraught and guilt-ridden they become over the course of the song. i realized that probably everyone has a lot of difficulty surrendering to another person, and that this is what the song is about." Paul Durham
it's such a simple thing i never feel this way i have nightmares i have dreams of you gone there is something in you i want today so hide the bones away beneath the yellow lines you're scared of what you lose or what you might gain this time i love you more than i should i would wrap my heart in bands of rosewood i love you more than i should i would stay beside you here ten million years you see yourself in the mirror you see yourself at night you see yourself in the gutter baby you see yourself like a star shining bright i love you more than i should i would stay beside you here ten million years every minute every hour every second you take me over every night of every day i wait i take i know i take but i love you more than i should i would stay inside you here ten million years

"i'm a huge fan of pj harvey's, so when a friend of mine in the music business said he knew of a pre-island [records] demo of hers, i hounded him for six months until he got it for me. it's awesome -- pj must have been 18 or something. there was one song with all these great parts that was pretty much in sketch form. so i re-wrote it and added some stuff and recorded it and got my friend to get the tape to her. a couple of months later, i heard she really liked it. totally amazing."

If anyone is interested in Black Lab guitar tab, i've tabbed some, jus email me. If anyone has the tab/chords for 10 million years id be eternally grateful -my band wants to cover it. Yay :-)

Laux (laux24@hotmail.com): - hey. i know it sucks that BL havent released much in the last few years, and u guys complain about that a bit, but be grateful, i live in Sydney, Australia, and the trek to San Fransisco, or anywhere else they might be performing is a bit of a hassle.
meanwhile 'Learn to Crawl' was the best song on the Spider-Man soundtrack, and even if all they do is one song on movie/tv soundtracks, i hope they keep it up. because the more new stuff i hear from them, the easier i sleep.

Jack (jacksjax@yahoo.com): - Black lab is one of my favorite bands. Its always exciting to hear a new song when you guys make one, so keep it up. I hope everything works out well for the album / record contract also. 'Your body above me' plus all the other songs i found on the net are the type of music that i can keep in my car cd player for weeks. Its cool to see other fans out here, because it seems so many people have not gotten into Black Lab. Im definitly doing my part to tell people about it though. I cant wait to hear you on the radio again! Best of luck! www.geocities.com/jacksjax

As soon as I have a chance I'm gonna get the CD, I hope I could see you in concert one day, I live in Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico, 2 hours away from San Diego, Ca. so I guess it will be easy to see you one day. Keep on with the great lyrics!

Eric (Adept18 @juno.com): - I have liked Black lab for some time now, I would easely put them on my top five list along with Our lady peice, Jump Little Children, Guster, and Radio Head. The thing that sucks for me is that I never got to see them while they were touring, which really sucks. It's hard to name a favorite song by them but I would have to say mine would be "she loves me." I also really like "Tell me what to say." Of the soundtrack of that one movie. Anyhow, I was wondering if anyone has tab for any of thier stuff, exspecially "gates of the country." If not the tab, maybe the chord progression? Thanks, your fellow BL fan...

Ryan (rgs2@desales.edu): - I saw BL at an all day concert in philly and i absolutely loved their music. I'm a film student and for one of my projects i'm doing a music video for "She Loves Me" because its just an amazing song lyrically. I would also love nothing more than for these guys to tour again so i can see them again.
- Date: Tue Sep 24 00:00
Jason Bodnar (jbodnar@hotmail.com): - I remember when BL was touring with Our Lady Peace, that's when I was first introduced to BL. It was amazing. I'm also a huge OLP fan, and agree that Gravity doesn't compare with their other albums. Too bad they didn't stick with their old producer.

Phil (phillipandjody@msn.com): - I've been listening to these guys since they first got some radio play in Birmingham, Alabama with "Wash it away". I was a freshman in college then with almost no money, but I had to go out and grab that cd right then. Now I'm going back to college four years later and I had to put them in the cd player tonight to study by. I've always been highly impressed with there style. Musically and lyrically. This band really rocks. I'm an aspiring musician myself (among other things) and if I could model a band after anyone it would be these guys (and maybe Led Zeplin). I'm glad to hear that these guys got a song on the Spiderman soundtrack and I hope to see a new album coming out soon. I've been looking for another one since '98! I'd love to see these guys take off.

Paul was right when he says that giving them out don't pay the bills...I just want to see them succeed.

Rain (Igotnutting@nope.com): - Well, I meant ones that could help BL and benefit from their success. I kinda got a little animosity from Atlantic after they decided to give one of my favorate bands, "Dollybraid" the run around and tell them their Bassist Jose wasn't good for their image...I would rather see Black Lab hit a small label and have great success, but be able to have freedom to do what they want. I wonder if Drive Through will pick up a non-punk band, heh.
- Date: Wed Sep 18 18:47
Squeegie Dude (this@4that): - Island? Atlantic? those are your idea of mid-sized labels??? Island is just another subsidiary of Universal (also devoured in the same merger that claimed Geffen). and Atlantic is massive -- they took up Bush when Universal/Trauma/Interscope dropped them (Science of Things was no 16Stone). what BL need to do is find an indie label with a decent distributor to put out the record. Aware recs is an example (though they don't sign acts like BL, it seems); they're distributed by ... I don't remember what label distributes it. whatever.
- Date: Wed Sep 18 13:51
Rain (aightblah@nothing.com): - I think Black Lab should focus more on a mid sized record company rather than one that drops them cause they feel like it. Sony has the ability to drop great bands cause they aren't going to suffer financially. BL should have learned about big companies from the Geffen incident. I really hope a company that really appreciates their talent picks them up and pushes hard to help them. I always thought Island or Atlantic would be good labels, but who knows what'll happen I'm just tired of having to wait since 98 to get more music...though the bootlegs have kept me happy awhile.

Whatcha think of the new BL site? I don't like it so very much... that STUPID intro thing takes FOREVER to finish, even on cable modem...and I am not so fond of how the message board is set up, either. I've only gone a couple of times to it, don't know how frequent I will visit. I'm looking forward to new BL that Paul & the new band folks are going to put out. Liked "Learn to Crawl" off the Spidey soundtrack....I know I have all their bootleg stuff burned to a cd around my place SOMEWHERE, heh heh heh.....

I listened to it when I got home, it was great I made a copy on a tape, I didn't have a CD burner at the time, I went to give it back but she said I could borrow it longer if I wanted. I told her ok, and also mentioned how great the album was. Well, a couple months went by and I guess I wasn't aggressive enough for her in our relationship, so that ended. Man, I felt sad, gates of the country, and time ago are my two favorites, but all together u guys are doing a great job, when is the next CD coming? I can't wait, let me know guys you rule! O and by the way when we broke up I kept the cd and still have it to this day ehehe take that!

Rachel (thurman@detroit.navy.mil): - I first heard of them when I baught thier CD at a record store and it was my fav from the get go. It broke my heart to hear nothing further from them for years, but with every note from every song from thier first memorized, I am dying to hear what is yet to come. I have studied music all my life and have of yet to hear anything that pleases my ears better than thier music. I just found this web sight and tears are roling down my face from joy. I was singing Gates of the Country when I met my Boyfriend, and plan to have many more happy memories with thier music in the Backgroung.

Stacie (fairygurl1019@aol.com): - OMG! I did NOT know they were back together until JUST NOW! THIS MAKES ME SO FREAKING HAPPY, BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN KEEPING AN EYE OUT FOR THEM TO COME BACK FOR A WHILE NOW!!!! I TALKED TO THE LEAD SINGER THRU EMAIL A WHILE AGO, AND HE WAS TELLING ME THEY WERE GETTING BACK TOGETHER AS SOON AS THEY FOUND NEW MEMBERS!!! THIS SOOOOOO MADE MY DAY! I LUV U ALL!

Rain (Hurry_up_with_the_record@please.com): - They are together...there is a link to their new site in a below message. They are on the soundtrack and the song kicks ass. Paul is the only origional member with two old time friends and a new Bassist who is gorgious. They also have snips from a revamped unreleased song and a video Paul and his guitarist made drunk with another friend filming them, who is also a pro filmer. He has the whole story on the site, there is also another messageboard there that is less active and not as good as this one. One more thing...you'll be lucky to find many BL songs. I had to finally break down and learn them myself...not hard, I'm just lazy. You'll need an E-bow for "Time Ago." I've written long enough...just am friggin ready fo the new album. The old one still fills me with so much joy and makes me want to get up and play along...there's a site with the "Time Ago" video, artist direct.com I beleive. I've downloaded so many of their live and unreleased stuff, but dammit I need more...Hurry up Paul, we need some Black Lab music...now if you'll excuse me, I need a 12th cup of coffee and I'm back to work, hehe.

- Date: Tue May 7 12:31
Cameron Gillins (aceofhearts555@hotmail.com): - A little birdy told me that BL was going to start doing shows and scheduling somewhat of a tour or something along those lines... if anyone has any inside info on that, that would be great. I got the chance to see them a few years ago in San Fran at Slims when they decided to do a couple of shows when it was somewhat of an original band, however not much happened after that. I'm in AZ so it was kind of amazing to hear that they would have so much as a schudule to leave the state with, so if anything at all this is my e-mail address. Also any tableture would be awesome....I have the same old same old, but anything fresh, home grown whatever it is would be awesome. All the posts here are great and the insights are very appreciated so Thanks to you all....and I'm out.

So I picked it up and looked at the track listing and yes Black Lab does do a song called "Learn to Crawl". Anyone have any type of idea as to who makes up the band right now?

Joey Wollas (something@something else.com): - Just sitting here at the computer playing random songs I came across "Keep Myself Awake" and it is so very good, so I had to see what the hell happened to you all. Unfortunately, it didn't look to good seeing as nothing new since April 2000. So "Whats up?" Whatever happened to "recording the new album dubbed on our cassette players if we have to" from the little webstream into? Had to love the reference to Wilco in there too, they are tremendous. Speaking of, they just released thier new album after protracted problems with thier old label and then shopping themselves around.....sound familiar? God only knows what you are actually doing, but you got my vote as far as putting it all together and making a new album. Live up to the kinda-like-Wilco billing and give us all something to cheer for. Take care, and at least let your hanging on by our fingernials fans know what your up to.

Phil (pabocci1@hotmail.com): - Alex, glad to see you. I can definitely say you've hit on something with your post. Black Lab go beyond the typical garage band to truly tap into an emotive core that is most recognized by regular, middle class people. That's what makes them great
- Date: Tue Apr 16 10:44
Alex V. (alex@darketower.net): - I find it hard to keep my comments as short as they should be. Notwithstanding, I have found that in their own, delightfully insidious way, Black Lab has somehow managed, WITH ONE ALBUM, to permeate a large and impressive cross section of mainstream, and eclectic fans of alternative rock music. I have spent the last three years traveling around the U.S. (due mainly to the nature of my vocation) and wherever I go, someone owns or has burned songs off of this album. From cooks to executives, middle-aged blue collars and students alike. The music seems to have locked into some small, subconcious emotive hole that we all have in our brains. I now own the album. Bravo guys. I can't imagine another album that I'd rather listen to, beginning to end. Make another one if you feel it's right.

My friend got to shake Paul's hand and Paul was wearing these incredible red pants. I still remember. Time Ago is the best song in the whole world, after hearing only a few seconds of it for the first time at this concert I was hooked. So much talent, unique songs, someone sign them!!! They sound just as good as anyone else out there, if not better. Please come back!! xoxoxxoo

John (one@lastpost): - Well, it seems like we're coming to the end of posting on this board. Even though this isn't a bad thing, seeing as how Black Lab's been signed and all, it's still kind of strange knowing that it's time for all of us to move on to the next webpage. We've all been drawn here for the same reason, the love of a band, a band that hasn't really been a band for the past 3 years. It really impresses me that this many people hung around to talk about something that they really enjoyed. I would have never thought that one band's music could bring so many people together to post on this board for this long. I would have thought it would have died out long ago. It just goes to show how much influence music has in the lives of everyone. Once you hear a band that influences you like Black Lab has been able to influence all of us, it's just something that you can't forget, and obviously none of us have. I just want to be the first to say how impressed I am, and how much fun it has been to read everyone's posts and be a part of this. Thanks to everyone.

When I was in Cambridge/Boston MA for my honeymoon there was another band called Troy's Bucket..I always thought that that was a cool quote (Its from the movie the Goonies which I guess shows my age, but its a quote about the loss of innocence).

goodkingtj (hi@hi): - I am curious who everyone who posts on here really is. Post some information about yourselves. Where is everyone from, ages, occupations, things like that. And how did you guys all get into black lab?
- Date: Sun Feb 3 21:23
nameless (once@again): - I know more than you have given me credit for. I don't remember Derek 3 or 4 years ago (or was it longer than that?) when they were touring, and "popular." I also don't recall ever getting any emails from him on the list. He's valued because he gives out information (rumors/gossip)? Sorry... I know this is not needed but I had to let it out. Nothing more is coming out of my mouth on the subject. Have a nice day.
- Date: Sun Feb 3 20:17
John (.@.): - I think ya'll should be grateful for Derek and his knowledge of the band. You had a question, and he had an answer. Don't knock the man just 'cause he knows more than you about that subject. At least somebody knows. If I'm not mistaken, the only reason any of us have known anything these past couple years is because of stuff Derek has told us. We'd all be a lot more in the dark if it weren't for him. So give him a break, huh? We've all come to this website because we all like the same band, not to start pissing contests. I think we're all happy that Black Lab is coming out with a new album, and we're all happy to get all the information we can get, whether from Derek or anybody else, so why don't we just all try to stay happy? Thanks.
- Date: Sun Feb 3 18:40
nameless (wonder@whoiam?): - I NEVER post my name/email address, so why should I in that post?
- Date: Fri Feb 1 21:56
goodkingtj (yea@yea.net): - hey, he is one of the very important members of our blacklab community, dont be a prick (I didnt mean to sound like a know it all, i dont want anyone to take it that way.)
- Date: Thu Jan 31 22:21
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I don't. I give the information that people ask. I try to help. At least I had the guts to post my name. - Derek
- Date: Wed Jan 30 19:16
For (This@Site): - I am with you Squeegie Dude! :) And how come you (Derek) act like such a know it all? Are you in the band?

Rune from Norway (runep@stud.imt.hist.no): - Hello.
Don't know if any of you out there who plays guitar are interested in any guitar and bass tabs for some Black Lab songs, but I'll post the webadress anyway. http://www.guitartabs.cc/home.php Search for "Black Lab". Enjoy.
- Date: Mon Jan 28 10:17
jason (jbodnar@hotmail.com): - ok now the webpage worked for me for some reason...either way i'm happy that black lab is living on, even in such an altered form
- Date: Mon Jan 28 02:06
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Album is out in March and the site won't work if you're using out-dated web browsers. A friend of mine had that problem - Derek
- Date: Sun Jan 27 22:38
jason (jbodnar@hotmail.com): - yeah, the blacklabweb page worked before but not now...i was interested in reading paul's post. isn't the album supposed to be out fairly soon too?
- Date: Sun Jan 27 19:14
Squeegie Dude (cecinep@sunepipe.dada): - i have looked at blacklabweb.com, and now i'm confused and somewhat unhappy. i want to stay here, dammit. who's with me? and who the hell is he (paul) playing with now?
- Date: Sun Jan 27 18:14
hmm... (wh@t!): - Paul's side of the story of michael's departure is a lot different than michael's story. But I guess I can say thank you to Paul for posting. I am the one that wanted it, and I guess I got it. I'm not clear on what actually happened, because michael sounded enthusiastic about epic.
- Date: Sat Jan 26 09:11
Phil (pabocci1@hotmail.com): - Well, darn, I tried to pull up the site, rife with excitement, and I got the "404 File Not Found" page instead. So close but yet so far. I guess the waiting continues...
- Date: Sat Jan 26 07:23
Michael Smith (mryans01@msn.com): - The blacklabweb site is up and running (sort of). There's not much stuff but there is an interesting post by Paul.
- Date: Fri Jan 25 23:54
Lillie (screamingviolet@bolt.com): - I'd just like to say that I MISS BLACK LAB!!!! :( I'd like to see some new stuff and a tour or two lined up! I am a musician myself and black lab has been a big influence in my life. Thanks guys for all you've done!
- Date: Fri Jan 25 22:22
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Thanks for the update Michael, my jaw is on the ground in amazement so far. FINALLY!
- Date: Fri Jan 25 19:35
michael (mswimelar@mail.utexas.edu): - hey all, check out blacklabweb.com now. there's a message from paul explaining everything. plus a new black lab song plays in the background and it sounds amazing
- Date: Fri Jan 25 06:16
Oh The Drama... (Chris8301@aol.com): - First i just want to say how incredible it is that people still come to this page and talk about Black Lab, that's just really cool and shows the power of the music. I drop by everyonce and a while and see if there is any news.. looks like in the past weekd that Black Lab is coming out with something new, I looked Paul Durham up in Berkely and when I talked to him he said something about a solo album, so now i'm confused. can someone who knows exactly what's going on email me? Please? - Chris
- Date: Thu Jan 24 22:32
kristian (kristian@inoz.com): - Ok.....fairy person who thinks evrything is all nice and sweet.... Michael is suing Paul. Does that sound friendly to you? Paul shafted Michael out of the deal with his new label. Plain and simple.
- Date: Thu Jan 24 14:33
ganesa (ganesa.prod@caramail.com): - Hello
I'm french and I like Blink 182 , I've the last album but I have not the hidden track "what went wrong". Could you send me in mp3 format ?
It was very cool. Thanks.
- Date: Wed Jan 23 21:02
mm hmm (yes@yes.com): - is michael in a band? abandoned pools is alright. and i cant wait for the new cd.
- Date: Wed Jan 23 14:09
tara's 2nd backup (about@paul.com): - He was a "prick", as well. Michael's words, not my own (and this was a year or two before they broke up).
- Date: Wed Jan 23 13:32
tara's backup (fric@frac): - But it didn't happen that way. Why else did people keep trickilng out of the band? first Urbano left. Then bryan. Geoff. And lastly Michael. It's because Paul is a control freak. it always has to be done his way. He has to be the center of attention. Paul totally screwed the rest of the guys out of any credits. Just look at thel iner notes, they almost always say "paul Durham."
- Date: Tue Jan 22 17:01
Cameron (cmgillins@aol.com): - Just to comment about tara's remarks on Paul as a musician and person. I know that paul is the reason why I started liking Black Lab at first, so I agree about his mucical talent. On the other hand, I'm not sure if there was any validity to what the four of them went through during their big break-up. It was dramatic enough for me to hear about so if anyone has anything in concrete as to why exactly it all had to go down this way I sure would like to know. I'll just continue being in the dark and think that it was all mutual and on good terms untill someone can tell me what's what.
- Date: Mon Jan 21 16:38
# (yes@YES!): - I'm here to back up Tara. Although this is the case, I'd rather hear some encouraging words from Paul himself.
- Date: Mon Jan 21 02:52
TaRa Copasetic (poz311@aol.com): - Paul is a sell out and perhaps he is a good musician but he is not a good person or a good business man. prove me otherwise and will take it back but what he did was shady.
- Date: Sat Jan 19 17:35
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Yeah the coming soon page just went up to confirm that the record is near. I'm sure the page is being worked on. Can't wait, FINALLY a new Black Lab record. Although it's without Michael Belfer, still can't wait to hear it.
- Date: Sat Jan 19 15:03
cio (cio@cio.com.au): - the site is not finished yet
and i will assume it will launch anytime soon :)
woo hoo
- Date: Sat Jan 19 13:42
Cameron Gillins (cmgillins@aol.com): - Can anyone tell me why the new Black Lab page(blacklabweb.com) only has a site cover page and no content. It's very possible that I overlooked something there but I don't think so. "Putittoyou" really needs to find more constuctive ways to fill his/her down time, only in my opinion. I just want to say that all you here are inspirational to a life-long Black Lab fan and you all make it worth checking in here from time to time to see what's new soo a big THANK YOU from a big fan. Thanks again.
- Date: Wed Jan 16 17:24
Squeegie Dude (respecttheboobs@putittoyou.is-a.misogynist.com): - and while putittoyou is taught to respect bands and their legitimate fans, he/she oughtta learn to respect boobs. boobs are great, and the probably deserve to be some better than putittoyou's jizz-drizzling mouth. as for a new black lab site, that intrigues me. but i think i shall call this place home.
- Date: Tue Jan 15 21:50
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - First of all "putittoyou, you obviously don't have very much respect for Black Lab by coming here and posting comments like that. We'd rather you just leave. Second off, I have been finding new music and loving it. Black Lab will always be my favorite though. SHAUN, THANK YOU. THIS IS CONFIRMATION THAT PAUL'S PROJECT IS NEAR! http://www.blacklabweb.com
- Date: Mon Jan 14 20:19
putittoyou (boobs@my mouth): - there's not one of you who loves black lab more than me, but seriously, get a life. while all you babies have been crying and carrying on FOR THE PAST 3-4 YEARS, i've been finding out about all kinds of narly tunes from british bands. get up out of your f***** computer chairs, wipe your snot noses, and move on with your pathetic lives. instead of whining over this unfortunate loss, dig for new tunes. i have. whatayathinkofthat,pissants?????????
- Date: Sat Jan 12 16:02
shaun (shaun@unstability.com): - Just to let y'all know... Black Lab is now listed as an artist on the Epic records homepages. And the new official Black Lab webpage is http://www.blacklabweb.com. There's no new information listed there, otherwise, though.
- Date: Sat Jan 12 12:20
Brad (signet@hotmail.com): - Someone below mentioned the band, Abandoned Pools, that the old
drummer from black lab is playing in. So I went to thier website and
checked it out and ended up buying the record. It totally rocks, I highly
recommend it.
- Date: Sat Jan 12 09:08
Lisa (liam411@aol.com): - Hey, I've never posted on here before. But I listen to their first album all the time and I've been dying to have something new from them since like 1998. anywa, i always think it would be cool to go to their site and find out what's going on and I finally have done it. Does anyone know if they are together and releasing anything soon? Also, does the lead singer have anything solo? What's his name? Please anyone who knows anything, mail me a mail and let me know :)
- Date: Fri Jan 11 15:21
sarah (sartuc@hotmail.com): - Soooo I don't post a lot on here - but I want to say that I'm really excited that people are on here talking about Jimmy Eat World - everyone should own their album Clarity - its unbelievable! And some other groups I think everyone should give a listen to are Saves the Day, Dashboard Confessional and Fisher.

Megan OHIO (unikorn13@hotmail.com): - I miss Black Lab severely! Where are you?
- Date: Mon Jan 7 16:28
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - The official "Black Lab" name is going to be on the record. Paul is the only original member though. Forgot to mention that. Thanks for reminding me "None." =)
- Date: Mon Jan 7 12:22
Nope (no@no): - Sorry, "their" new stuff is not coming out early 2002. PAUL and some other guy's stuff is coming out then.

Sarah (tillyvanillie@hotmail.com): - Where's Black Lab gone? They're awesome and I've loved all theyre songs since I first heard them like five years ago, does anyone know when and if new stuff is coming?

Steiney (Steiney_77@yahoo.com): - Rain, I am totally with you on your recent post I love Mighty Joe Plum and Naked and have been looking for any info on either of those bands, last I heard naked was lost in the shuffle of either their distributer or label and if I remember right I heard that they were dropped...If you know anything please let me know...also if you know anything about the Drowners who are another great band...Thanks..Steiney
- Date: Thu Jan 3 03:07
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I can't barely stand it anymore! Ross Hogarth's site (Engineer for the new BL album) says Upcoming Release Early 2002. I've heard February from a couple people. I wonder if the single will be released early? I there is one. I just want some new BL! Well, I think we've been waiting so long for a new album that a couple months won't hurt =). I hope Ross's site is right. - Derek

metis457 (metis457@aol.com): - I think we would all love to hear another album from the guys. And we really should support the smaller bands--- their music is awesome. Jimmy Eat World has been getting alot of air play in Atlanta lately and they rock.

Rain (hroyal@hotmail.com): - I heard the guys on a local station of 98.9 out of Shreveport. It was awesome hearing "Time Ago" and then hearinf Naked's song "Mann's Chinese" in the same hour. I miss so many of the little known bands. Mighty Joe Plum, Naked, Black Lab, Cool For August(which is still together), and Shades Apart is rumored to be broken up. Go out and support the smaller bands.

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - Mr. Matthews - I got all the songs I've found, I believe, off of audiogalaxy. As far as I know, despite the cutbacks in availability that've been sweeping audiogalaxy, they're still accessible there. If that fails, you may want to try something like KaZaa or Morpheus (which, if my sources tell me right, are basically the same thing with two different names). Failing that, I'm not sure what to tell you. If you've got AIM and can wait a little while, I can probably send them to you at some point directly, although it may take some time. Good luck! :-)

Squeegie Dude (finalsc@nsuckmyd.ick): - anyone seen this vid by the Strokes? it's so weird, but i think i like it. catchy song. "last nite" i think it's called.

- Date: Sun Dec 16 03:07
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Hey Jason.. I'm a big Ben Folds fan! Glad to hear you saw him live, I have yet to see him yet. I just started to get into his music about 6 months ago. He's one of those guys who doesn't really know how to make a bad song.- Derek
- Date: Tue Dec 11 06:44
James Koppert (xjamesourownx@talk21.com): - OK if you are all recomending bands check out a band called WAXWING from Seatle. Their album ONE FOR THE RIDE is the greatest thing ever recorded I kid you not!! I think their site is http://www.waxwingrock.com
- Date: Tue Dec 11 06:41
James Koppert (xjamesourownx@talk21.com): - Hey you guys,

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - In reference to the link posted below to alternative addiction...if anyone's in the mood for some good Holiday themed alternative music, go check that out. But it raises an interesting question. What alternative or rock holiday music (or covers) are good, and what do you like? Any recommendation to a fan looking to augment his alternative christmas listenings?
- Date: Sat Dec 8 19:03
Jason (JBodnar@hotmail.com): - Hey again. I just wanted to say that I saw Ben Folds last night, and it was a really good show. Any other big BF fans out there? I saw him 3 years ago and he really opened up to the crowd a lot better this time. If you like Ben Folds and haven't gotten his new album, get it. I'm listening to the newer Athenaeum album at the moment...comments to come later :) Take it easy guys.

Jailbait (rockchick@hotmail.com): - I'm a huge Black Lab fan. I was at the X-Fest concert in Clearwater Florida
last week and saw an amazing new band called Abandoned Pools. So I
checked out their website (abandonedpools.com) and realized the
drummer was Bryan from Black Lab! They're my new favorite band!
- Date: Thu Dec 6 21:29
The Wood (Woodxc@mail.utexas.edu): - Hey Fans, i just wanted to comment on the new Athenaeum album. It's pretty rocking. I really love the album and although it is a departure i believe it is worth the 12 dollars you might spend at a record store for it. As usual you have to kind of make your own moments to make the songs memorable but all in all it's a wonderful album.
- Date: Thu Dec 6 07:10
Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - Jason - Nice to see you around, its always good to have more people actively contributing hereabouts. Also, thanks for the kind words. Trust me, finding out any sort of news was my pleasure :-) But back to your question: I've been an Athenaeum fan since Radiance too (in fact I live where they're from, and regularly see the street the album is named after). I had already heard some of the new stuff before the self-titled CD came out, and so went ahead and bought it. I think there are definitely highlights to the album. I will say there are some songs that don't do much for me, and there are a few that definitely feel more like Collapsis songs (not that that's a bad thing, I liked Collapsis, its just different for Athenaeum), but if you don't mind spending the money on it I do think it's worth your time. Hope that helps :-)
- Date: Thu Dec 6 06:22
Rain (memnochv@hotmail.com): - They rule!! their show on HBO was one of the funniest I've ever seen. Jack Black is hilarious in everything he does and K.G. is an awesome side-kick. He actually had a small part in "Saving Silverman" as the magician that hits on Judith. I bought their C.D. and was waiting for one for awhile. I also have to pay respect to Jimmy Eat World. I got into the whole Emo type of music with them. They have some pretty rockin' songs. But, back to Tenacious D. Sometime in the future they're releasing the episodes officially. I do agree that you have to have a certain personallity to enjoy J.B. & K.G., but they are hilarious and do put on an awsome show, plus K.G. kack play the H$#L out of a guitar.
- Date: Wed Dec 5 22:01
Jason (jbodnar@hotmail.com): - Just a follow up...reading everyone's (specifically Derek and Phil, thanks for all your good investigative work guys) comments I see that only Paul will be the remaining member of Black Lab. To be honest, if his (or "their") new stuff is anything like YBAM at all, I will be estatic. It's a shame with the whole Michael-Paul saga, but at this point just knowing there's going to be Black Lab of any kind is good news. To change it up...I'm assuming that someone here has the newer self-titled Athenaeum album and I was wondering if I could get some feedback on it. I love Radiance to death, have read some mixed reviews on their newer release and am not sure if I want to purchase it. Thanks everyone.
P.S. Anyone else in (by some small miracle) or around Fort Wayne, Indiana?
- Date: Wed Dec 5 21:33
Jason Bodnar (jbodnar@hotmail.com): - I am extremely excited to hear that Black Lab will have a new album coming out. I heard that they had broken up and thought I would never hear from them again. I saw them open up for Our Lady Peace almost five years ago and still listen to YBAM on a regular basis. They came to the town I had just moved to a couple of years after that with Athenaeum, but unfortunately you had to be 21 to see them and I was merely 19.
Switching it up...I am a huge Weezer fan myself, and saw them this past march in chicago. I also was somewhat disappointed by their lack of stage presence, but I can't complain too much because that's their style. When I recently saw Cake, however, I definitely expected more humor from John McCrea. Either way, I do enjoy the new Weezer album and am glad that they have new material. Hopefully at least the song Fall Together will appear on their next album, and hopefully their next album won't be less than a half hour long. What are your guys feelings on Tenacious D? Some people think they're hilarious, while others feel that they attempt to be funny by cussing in different ways.
That's all for now guys. To those it concerns, please keep us informed as to more details about the new CD, touring, etc. Thanks.
- Date: Wed Dec 5 15:02
Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - Tim - for convenience's sake, as well as for those who may not know them already, I'll just list all of the non-YBAM tracks. Black Eye - Circus Lights - Good Life - Hole in the Sky - Horses - I Am a DJ - I Am Free - I Don't Love You (Like I Used To) - James - Keep Myself Awake - Perfect Girl - Pictures of People - Play With Fire (or Play With Me) - Rock Star - See the Sun - Take It Back (You Say) - Tell Me What To Say - Tell Me Why - Underground - Walk Slow
- Date: Wed Dec 5 14:19
Tim (goodkingtj@hotmail.com): - i have about every song i have been able to find by black lab, but i dont know the ones that werent released, give me some options, and i will tell of my favorites. On another note, it takes a hell of a band to keep the message board going for two years with as little hope as you guys have had for a resurgence. Good job!
- Date: Wed Dec 5 10:28
Rain (blah@blahblah.com): - I like "You say" myself, I usually put the C.D. and let it go, so I cannot remember any of the songs at the moment. "All the money in the world" is my favorate on YBAM.
- Date: Tue Dec 4 18:06
Craig (nwa4ever@hotmail.com): - OK. Maybe I'm missing something, but Black Lab seems to have ceased being. Where are they? I live in Canada, so I never got too much info on them before, but now I here nothing. New Album??? Someone fill me in please.
- Date: Tue Dec 4 15:41
Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - Seems to be a subtle note of negativity around the board lately, so lets see if we can make things a bit more friendly again and maybe start a new topic of conversation. According to my reconning, not counting the rumored new song "Without You," there are 21 existing Black Lab songs not on YBAM. Of those songs, how many do you think might make the new album, which are your favorite, which do you think are atypical for the band's style, etc.? Basically, what're your thoughts about the non-album Black Lab music?
- Date: Mon Dec 3 15:47
kristian (herewego@again.com): - Felony, it's not even about "you win" or "I win". It's simply that I don't like your music. Deal with it. If you're going to be successful you're going to have to sooner or later. Not everyone likes the same things. Geez.
- Date: Sun Dec 2 04:15
Minorfelony (MinorFelony@Minorfelony.com): - Derek, Glad to hear more Black Lab is on the way. I am fan. I have talked about Black Lab hear and else where. Glad to see you are keeping up with your site. :) No disrespect intended. Kristian you realy have not heard our music. That is the only song with ton's of effects. It goes with the story line. I Hope you will take the time to download the other songs from the site. If you hate them, you win we suck. Just remember by putting other people down you only get bad Karma and will find yourself being put down by others.

kristian (ahh@biteme.com): - Mr Minor Felony..... "Music is music, art is art." And I suppose pitch is overrated? Mate, ever heard the saying "You can't polish a turd"? Doesn't matter how many effects you put on a vocal/instrument. Get it right the first time and don't rely on AutoTune.
- Date: Sat Dec 1 18:32
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Minor Felony: We're here to talk about Black Lab, you've plugged your band and if we want to continue to listen to it we will. We're here to talk about Black Lab of old and new. Black Lab has a new album Produced by Paul Durham coming out Early 2002.

lisa (eggie1313@yahoo.com): - does anyone have lyrics to "i don't love you (like i used to)"? i love the song, but it is driving me mad since i can't understand several lines.
- Date: Fri Nov 30 02:34
MinorFelony (MinorFelony@minorfelony.com): - Daniel "from england" Yes you are at the right website. No, they have all moved on to other projects. Yes they might still work on some new stuff. ( Hopefully) As you;I love that song "keep myself awake". Anyway to the rest of you locals on this site. I have been coming and reading for a long time. No, I don't write often and what's wrong with a little shamless promotion. MinorFelony.com. By the way Kristian. Why don't you be fair and listen to all the songs availible before you degrade our singer. The first song has effects on her vocals to match the feelings of the lyric's. Music is music, art is art. Those who love it, feel it. Those who don't, can hate or at least try to realize. There is no beauty in hate.

daniel (from england) (want_u_to_ignore_me@hotmail.com): - excuse the stupidness of this quetion, but are blacklab still around? i have heard very little of them since i discovered their existence a while ago (keep myself awake) and im not even sure if this is the same band's web site...

Foma (hroyal@hotmail.com): - It's like Fuel's song "Shimmer". I heard it on Conan O'Brien about 3-4 months before it got so freakin' popular. I learned the song before the posers went out and got the C.D. for that song only. I like the fact that a band is litle known. It sometimes seems that there's a handfull of bands that don't try and have at least one poser song an album...Offspring, Blink 182, Creed, Sugar Ray...(I know, bad evample). But no one knows about Black Lab, the Nixons, Cool for August, Mighty Joe Plum, Naked, K's Choice. There's so many bands that rock, suffer, get fired for their music, Rock more and then break up because everyone is fixed on the bands that are huge. I used to love Blink 182 during Dude Ranch and their Cheshir Cat days. And Creed, gawdawful Creed. I'm sorry, but you don't say G.D. in a somewhat spiriyual song....but like Jack Black said sarcastically.."C'mon, he's Jim Morrison and the Messiah all wrapped into one." anyways I've ranted on enough...hate what I said or love it, it's about 6:32am and I'm at work............I'm so tired.

The Wood (Woodxc@mail): - Yeah, don't give her Jimmy if you like it. I went to that concert in San Anton. jimmy and Tenatious D were awesome...what Weezer did was expected. Lovable nerds they are. Black Lab is a band that i always try to tell people about. I think they either love them or hate them. But i spread the word. I heard that Tonic song if you could only see way before it came out on the radio...i was like, well maybe i should just listen to it now before it gets popular. Anyways, check out some of the bands on Drive Though Records...great artists...especially Something Corporate...if you get a chance download Konstantine. I promise you will love it.

Garath (Adept18@juno.com): - Jimmie eats world is a good band, exspecialy thier new album. The only thing that pissed me off about them, is i'm really into likeing music no one has herd about, and when I got thier c.d. I was like the only person here who knew of them. But now they have two songs on the radio and everbody loves them. I know it's childeish to want to be the only person who knows of a band, but damit, I saw them first!!! lol...

Tenacious D and Jimmy kicked ass, but Weezer was lacking stage presence and didn't sound too hat live, plus I don't like the new album. I love the self titled and Pinkerton though, they're petty awesome. Anyone here like the Nixons or Flickerstick?

I just got that CD last week and i dig it! gahh. i can't listen to Weezer anymore, either. i always took the ol' battle-axe to weezer shows when they'd come to town. "i'm tired, so tired. tired of having sex..."

- Date: Tue Nov 27 04:21
Foma (hroyal@hotmail.com): - I guess I'll add a short ex story as well. I didn't have an ex ruin BL, but Life House. Hanging by a Moment was a song I always thought of her with. I think it got to more of a think I was in love thing due to being lonely. But I realized, hey! I'm only 20, I've got much better things out there to worry about. And 3 more bad girlfriends later, here I am. I really have no advice other than live life like it's your last day to live. See a girl(boy) you th9ink is pretty, even if you think they're out of your league, talk to them, you may embarass yourself, but you are settled knowing you trieed and won't have regrets. Although I only follow that 50% of the time. I'm not Don Juan with the women.
- Date: Tue Nov 27 01:25
Garath (Adept18@juno.com): - SG dude, that sucks about you and your ex. Buit I know how that goes. When me an my ex broke up, one day we were talking about music, and she told me she could really relate to the BL songs, and it realy pissed me off because she was the one who broke me up. It's like you want to say, "You can no longer like any of the same music I like" What really sucks though is when she "shares" the music that used to be special for only you. Eh.. Oh well, at least you ex dosent take a new guy to all the places you showed her and that were special. lol, Females ae like trying to undestand the sun.. You know it will come up in the morning and set in the day, but thats about it. And if you look at it to long, well, I'll just leave that without saying...

The Wood (WoodXC@mail.utexas.edu): - All the BL songs remind me of that girl i lost....it's something we have to get over i guess. If you want revenge and to make her feel like she needs a new band...send her the new Jimmy Eat World...that will get her thinking what the heck was i thinking. PS.. Tell me what to say and Tell me why are awesome "forgettaboutit" songs.

kristian (oh@isee.com): - That sucks squeegie.......i hate it when girls say "but can we still be friends?" Yeah right. If the shoe was on the other foot then it would be different. My suggestion, and it is only thus, is to stay away from her. Don't let her have her cake and eat it too. It's not fair on you. You need to protect yourself right now. Be cool my brother. Things will get better.
- Date: Mon Nov 26 20:35
Squeegie Dude (hysterical@nd-useless): - yar, it's hard to avoid people when you've got classes with 'em. and we're trying to stay "friends" but we all know that's complete and utter bull$hit. yeah "why does it always rain on me" by travis was "our" song. their albums haven't seen the inside of my cd player in several weeks. yeah, girls (and boys, if you swing that way) come and go, but the music always sticks around to remind us. think "slide show" also by travis. or "that song" by big wreck. and there are tons of other songs about songs that remind us of the good, the bad and ugly. i was thinking how "your body above me" is such an erotic title, and the songs are about breakups and losses. ironic? or just the idea of missing that stuff when it's gone from you? *sigh*
- Date: Mon Nov 26 19:57
kristian (truthbe@known.com): - yeah, yeah, yeah......... i know how ya feel squeegie...... after I broke up with my g/f I tried to listen to BL but had to race over and turn it off. I just couldn't handle it 'cos it had been "our" music. But you know what??? There are HEAPS of other opportunities out there. Girls come and go, but the music is always there. As for your BL thieving ex......tell her to get her own band! As for me, Black Lab 24/7 baby. No Worries Mate!

Squeegie Dude (thatsong@bigwreck): - not too long ago, i got dumped by my significant other. it sucked seriously. today, my ex asks me, "hey, what's that song you're always listening to?" i said, "the one with the rad guitar intro?" "yeah," my ex replies. i said, "Time Ago," to which the reply was, "yeah, i liked that song." while i'm glad my ex likes the song, come on fercrissakes, it's *my* song. well, not really. but it is one of my faves, and dammit, haven't i been robbed of enough things in my life lately? cripes. take my favorite song, whydontcha!

Right now it's kinda simple, but soon enough it'll be better, I was wondering if anyone had anything they would be nice enought o allow me to post on there, or add in the pages. Like I said, it's a work inprogress, but I hope to contenue the page with the new Black Lab of Paul Durham and whoever else he recruits. I'm at hroyal@hotmail.com, I'm also looking for any Black Lab live boots to buy. Thanks.

if you have not heard them i strongly erge you to get a cd the best one being beautiful midnight absolutely stellar.
and i dont know if any of you are familiar with splender but their first cd was spectacular and now they have signed with a new label and are working in the studio right now. its just (b)itchin --you cant write that word how the f about that-- and here i read paul was against sensorship
~~the new creed cd is better than the last one but its not the first~~ mark's guitar work is quite good for him, not really any solos though
LONG LIVE BLACK LAB

Minorfelony (Minorfelony@minorfelony.com): - Haha, Well, Maybe had you listen to the rest of the songs you would have a different opinion. Or maybe not. Not every sound is for every one. especially people who only like things that sound like a rip off of a thousand things they heard before, That's cool I'm guilty of that too from time to time. We are just trying to make a sound just little of beat, Not for every one. www.MinorFelony.com
- Date: Thu Nov 22 12:20
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I wouldn't bother checking out that band posted in the posts below "Minor Felony." I was plugging my ears half way through the first track. :-)
- Date: Thu Nov 22 01:23
Garath (Adept18@juno.com): - Also.. Other awesome bands to check out would be Jump Little Children. They are so wondefull, and while paul has a supper cool voice, Jay has an even more amazeing one. Though I wish I had either one of thier, Pauls and Jays are my fave male voices. Anyhow, another fantastic band is Guster. Also check out The Five O'clock people, Owsly, collapsis, Travis, and Ani Defranco.
- Date: Thu Nov 22 01:15
Garath (Adept18@juno.com): - Let's see.. Sense everyone here has added thier touching storis on why they love Black Lab, i'll write mine too. (Don't worry, I'll keep it short and sweet.) Anyways, my ex-girlfeind and I broke up over a year and a half ago, but I was really hurt by the whole thing, she kinda broke my heart, like 100 times over. I felt like I couldent connect to anything, and music had always bben huge in my life. Well one day I got talking to a freind of mine and she said when ever she felt down she listened to her favorite band, Black Lab.. So I barrowed the cd and fell in love with it. When I talked to my freind I was listening to the cd for the fourth day strait, and when each saong came on I would say "I love that one." I know every body wants to feel apart of something of like they are on the same level as some one else, but I can say that Each song felt like they were written fo me. I'm a song writer and Paul wrought songs that were more persoanl than my own. All I have to say is WOW! My tue favorits would be "She loves me" "Anything" "Ten million years" "Gates of the country" and "Tell me what say" If thier ae any guitar players out there I would like to know what the chord progression is for "Gates of the country" or "Tellmewhattosay" Any Tab o sheet music would be even better. While I can right songs and sing I suck with the guitar. Any fan's from Portland OR?

Cameron Gillins (cmgillins@aol.com): - Just wanted to give some personal insight on a very good show. I just recently got to see Remy Zero live and am seeing them well tonight actually and if you ever appreciated Black Lab for Paul's vocals like I did then you might be very interested in this little number. I'm sure you've heard their single "Save Me" on the waves, however their whole CD "The Golden Hum" is actually excellent. Their style took me some getting used, but once you get there your ears will thank you. Look into it.

Beej (radioparticle@hotmail.com): - Jon,
You saw Bonehead @ the Pontiac? If I was home (and witha fake ID, it was 21+ right?) I'd be there :P
The album went out of print in April when the guys signed to MCA Records. I have it if you want a copy or something, I'm sure we could set somethin up.
And, got a few questions for ya since you were at the show...
Did they mention anything about what they're changing their name to, what they expect to be the first single, or a definite release date for the new album?
Thanx!! :)

Jon S. (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Nice to hear Bryan's hooked up with Tommy Walter (Abandoned Pools). I always figured Tommy'd make a good combo with Michael, but whatever. I've been listening to a lot of Tommy's stuff lately as well as some eels and some *New Invisible Joy*. (think U2 meets Travis meets Radiohead). They're on mp3.com and they're giving out some darn good mp3's. Check it out. Re: Caroline's Spine - I never liked Attention Please except for Work Song. I prefer their "best of" CD, Monsoon.

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - This is in response to a recent comment by mr matthews - I was able to get in touch with the man behind Hoax Productions, and he was nice enough to respond to my inquiries. It seems that the new black lab album (which he spoke highly of, without going into specifics) is due to be released February/March of 2002 under the Epic Records label. Here's hoping, huh?
- Date: Sun Oct 28 12:17
annie (blacklabfan@notrealaddress.com): - when exactly did black lab break up?? what happened? this is all very new to me.. i can't believe they quit after such a great album. i was just listening to time ago and thought i'd look them up to see if they are playing any shows near me.. san diego area. i can't believe this. they were such a great live band. i saw them 3 years ago at the shoreline ampitheater in san jose. that was such a great show.. this is soo upseting.. my day is ruined. would someone please spell out for me what went wrong?
- Date: Thu Oct 25 22:30
kristian (aussieboy@forever.com): - Black Lab will ot be Black Lab without Michael. The songs may be cool, cooler, coolest but there's no way anyone can touch what Michael brought to the tunes. I think the biggest thing he brought was humility, something Paul seems to be lacking.
- Date: Thu Oct 25 20:09
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Hey "duh." It's rumored at this point that Paul Durham is still using the Black Lab name and will release an album under Epic Records in January. So we still may see a new record, just not with the original members. I hope this rumor becomes reality, because I'd really like to see how Paul does without Michael.
- Date: Thu Oct 25 20:08
mr matthews (mattvk@juno.com): - going now to audiogalaxy and will try to find some lab stuff i just love them.
i hear the new album is supposed to be released early 2002 with paul durham as teh producer and the founder of "hoax productions"(yes thats the real name, go to lycos and type in 'paul durham epic' is doing the mixing and whatnot. the cd is supposebly on epic but the website doesnt list them as a signed band. oh well
as others have recommended before i highly highly recommend that you get into matthew good band- truely one of the best bands out there.
beautiful midnight was the only one released in the us but you can go on ebay or www.hmv.com and get the rest of the cds - new one coming out oct 30 audio of being - get it

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - "Ha," despite the fact that your comment is completely asinine, sophomoric, and petty it does raise a question I have. I was lucky enough to find a t-shirt on Ebay a few months ago, a black one with the album cover and title (its actually a pretty nice shirt). And then there's the shirts on the website. Does anyone know what merchandise or memorabilia are floating around out there? For us fans who never got to see them live or even know them as an existing band (rumors of Paul's thing notwithstanding) it'd be nice to know what to be on the look out for or even what's available. Thanks folks :-)

Hey, I havent posted on here in a long time. I was just curious if anyone had any new news about the band or former band members. Im sure its posted somewhere on here, but frankly, I am too lazy to go read endlessly on to find something. I would appreciate anyone's info....Also, I've just been introduced to Nickelback, and yes, I know they are not a new band...their third album just came out, but this is the first time I've heard of them and am quite impressed.

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - James, from what I was told most of those songs you listed are actually by other groups but are accidentally labeled as by Black Lab, and so they show up when you search. If you'd like, I'll post another list of all the songs I've become aware of by Black Lab that weren't on YBAM (or you can peruse the old posts, some of them contain them). Other than hearing scattered rumblings about a new song called Without You by them, I don't know of any new stuff by Paul and co. floating around. Oh, and one last thing. Lemme add another recommendation: Caroline's Spine. Start with Attention Please, and if you like that try a few other songs.

James (fake_email@like.everyone.else): - I've just done a search for "Black Lab" on Audiogalaxy and found a heap of songs I've never heard of before (Burning Love, Mushroom Jazz, Funeral Polka, Blood of My Blood, + lots more).
Was wondering if anybody knew anything about these? If they're Paul's new band, or fake, or what? (yes, my internet connection is too pathetic to download much)

Beej (radioparticle@hotmail.com): - Lessee...
Matthew Good Band is pretty good.... the Jimmy Eat World album is amazing, and I LOVE Jude.. but since he's not well known around here... I haven't got my hands on the album yet.
An AMAZING album is Howie Day's "Australia". You can only get it at live shows or at Awarestore.com. DEFININTELY check it out
End shameless plug :)

Steiney (Steiney_77@yahoo.com): - My Black Lab substitute is Matthew Good Band, who I was introduced to on a mix tape I traded for about a year and a half ago. They are well known in Canada but here in the US, not a lot of people have heard of them; I think the only one of their CDs available down here is Beautiful Midnight(which is outstanding). I now have all 3 of their major label CDs and some of their bootlegs (They have a new CD coming out by the end of October I believe). Other bands I have gotten into as much as Black Lab..Jimmy Eat World (Their new CD is great, and here I thought they'd be one hit wonders with Lucky Denver Mint which is a perfect pop song), Pete Yorn, the new Jude CD "King of yesterday", the Drowners...probably more I just can't think of em all right now..

Emmalynne (Emmalynne@hotmail.com): - I love finding new and relatively unknown music, and I've loved all the ones you guys have suggested so far, keep them coming!
(oh, and powderfinger is great, I can't believe I forgot to mention them before. And has anyone heard of DoubleDrive? They're not to shabby either.)
- Date: Thu Oct 11 04:47
aussie music rocks!!! (checkit@out.com): - You guys need to check out MotorAce. They're a hot aussie band. Also try checking out Powderfinger.

Michele (BlastZorak@hotmail.com): - Naturally, Your Body Above me is the best CD I own, and I am amazed and delighted to find this bulletin board so active so long after the band disbanded. Thanks, posters, for giving me the idea to search Audiogalaxy for Black Lab music. I downloaded 23 tracks a couple of weeks ago, and it was like getting a brand new LP after waiting four long years. A seasoned fan but spanking-new poster, I too very much regret not catching Black Lab when they were alive and performing in my area.... so many moons ago. Que sera, sera.
It's nice to find other fans, because my dilligence in exposing my friends to my own musical enlightenment has done nothing to increase the spectrum of Black Labdom. They are all very slow. But I will keep at it! (:
Again, that tidbit about Audiogalaxy was purely invaluable. "You Say/Take It Back" (not so sure about the title) is my reigning new fave BL tune (followed closely by "Sleeps with Angels," of course), and never would I have known it *existed* save the info provided by the good people of the bboard! (Also--AG has plenty of OTHER fine mp3's.) (;
Ok, enough rambling, must do my homework now. Rock on, fellow crazies. (:

krisTin (thebedazzleddiva@aol.com): - wow. so i was in work today (i work at Wilsons Leather...) and we finally got a new mix tape to play. so im listenin. la di da. when all of a sudden i hear the beginning of Time Ago. i almost cried. lol (not sounding dramatic. the song brings back many memories for me.) and i was just stunned to hear it on this tape. cuz it had fairly popular songs and artists. i was just like "wow" thru the whole song. and my co-workers (all male) were like makin fun of me bcuz i was sayin how emotional the song makes me.
so theres my lil blurb. i was so shocked to hear Time Ago. and it was weird bcuz just yesterday i almost put the cd in but opted for something that let me get out all my anger rather than make me mellow.

Emmalynne (Emmalynne@hotmail.com): - My home is actually about 45 minutes NW of philly, but I go to college towards the center of the state. I saw bonehead this past summer, without realizing it... I went to the Y100 feztival, and just happened to go down to the sidestage to get a t-shirt when they were playing, but I wasn't paying attention to the songs, so I didnt realize it was them until they were done. I was quite cranky about that.. but then that may have been due the heat... BL played the FEZ a few years ago... if only I had gone that year instead.... sigh.
- Date: Fri Oct 5 13:39
Beej (RadioParticle@hotmail.com): - EmmaLynn, whereabouts Philly are you from??
I love Liquid Gang, who also, unfortunately, RIP. :( I never got to see em live :(
BTE... GOOOOOOOD choice....
And have you seen Bonehead live yet?
Wow... such a non-Black Lab post :-P
- Date: Fri Oct 5 07:55
Emmalynne (Emmalynne@hotmail.com): - woo hoo! yes, Bonehead is the best little philly band, definatly look up 'I know'. I, myself, have too many bands to mention each one right now, but I have to say there are none that compare to BL. A few of my favorites are Travis, 7m3, our lady peace, better than ezra, Liquid Gang (another little band from PA), and Finger 11. but right now, I have to say I'm really into Rufus Wainwright. He's a strange guy, but check out 'Instant Pleasure' from the Big Daddy soundtrack and 'Halleluja' from the Shrek soundtrack. see ya :)
- Date: Thu Oct 4 21:16
Beej (RadioParticle@hotmail.com): - I'm pretty sure what Matthew is talking about is that on AlternativeAddiction.com, "Walk Slow" is in the top 20 and I think a #6. The countdown is entirely decided on by the votes of the listeners... so go check it out and bump Black Lab up to #1!
http://www.alternativeaddiction.com
- Date: Thu Oct 4 17:52
matthew blake canerdy (matt4jesus3@hotmail.com): - there's a new Black lab song called Walk slow everyone vote for it
- Date: Thu Oct 4 15:05
Beej (radioparticle@hotmail.com): - Sort of ironic........
Someone on the board mentioned VonRa.. well they are signed to Alvers Management, which also manages Bonehead, a rock band from my home town o philly. Bonehead is my Black Lab substitute.. and they just signed a major label deal with MCA/Refuge (shameless plug) :) ... so expect an album from them in early 2002. Until then, download their songs "Fade" and "I Know" :)
Other bands I like:
Better Than Ezra
Howie Day
Molly's Yes (RIP)
Pulling Birds (RIP)
Jimmy Eat World
Aztek Trip
Juliet (http://www.mp3.com/juliet)
and MANY others :)

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - The board has been rather quiet lately, so I thought I'd try to introduce a new topic for conversation. We've touched on this before, but not addressed it specifically (i believe). Who do you all use as your "Black Lab relief?" In other words, since Black Lab hasn't put out anything new in a while, what other artists or bands do you listen to that you enjoy in a similar vein to Black Lab? I know Remy Zero has been mentioned. Right now (in addition to them), I'm warming up to a group called VonRa that isn't half bad. Maybe Tool does it for you? Let us know! :-)
- Date: Wed Oct 3 19:20

Cameron G. (cmgillins@aol.com): - Ok I just want to add on to the whole BL and RZ thing.....I am a huge black lab fan and I think I have pretty much most of what they have produced either on cd or my comp. anyway I am also a big TOOL fan and both Remy Zero and TOOL are coming to PHX, AZ and I am debating on who to go see because my bills each month don't permit me to go and see both of them so I just wondered if anyone could help me with this little dilema....anyway get back to me via email because I rarely get online anymore....let alone this site so if you could that'd be cool....thanx.

- Date: Thu Sep 20 21:29
Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - In a lot of ways I agree with what Gayle said. I think Black Lab and Remy Zero fans can appreciate the other because of a basic similarity. I do think that, as is evidenced on songs like "Prophecy" by Remy Zero, the two have a definite similarity. Definitely check them out if you haven't alredy! :-)
- Date: Thu Sep 20 19:39
gayle (gkatz31@hotmail.com): - as a big fan of both BL and Remy Zero, i dont know if i'd say that the bands really sound that much alike... i have not heard the new RZ album in full yet because no stores in my area seem to be carrying it.. but i have heard several of the new songs.. i think the best way to put it is that a fan of BL would probably enjoy RZ's music, and vice versa.. i know of many RZ fans that love BL in fact.. ok i've said my piece........

nimble (weezerboy60@hotmail.com): - Pleas don't think that I'm disrespecting black lab in any way by my last comment. I just simply mean that the sound of the new R.Z. record is very similar.
- Date: Mon Sep 17 10:27
nimble (weezerboy60@hotmail.com): - Everyone should chack out the new 'Remy Zero' album. It comes out tommorrow(sep. 18th). They pick up pretty much where black lab left off, in my opinion anyways. The album is called "The Golden Hum."

- Date: Sun Sep 16 10:46
Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - I've heard a lot about the dynamics of Black Lab as a band, many alluding to the fact that Michael was the heart of the band and Paul was the brain and voice. Being more of a latecomer to Black Lab, all I've really observed (by listening to the music) is Paul's songwriting ability and Paul's singing ability. I know fully well that Michael is an EXTREMELY talented individual who contributed greatly to Black Lab. But I don't believe that an album with just Paul would be bad in the least. That's why people like Derek and I want to see whatever he's done released. Maybe, to extend the metaphor, the heart of Black Lab wouldn't be there but the spirit certainly would. In the meantime I guess we can just hope.
- Date: Sat Sep 15 23:07
hah (petions@petitions): - What is up with you and petitions? Paul was the voice, but Michael was the band.
- Date: Sat Sep 15 22:58
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I just heard from someone that the new Black Lab album has been fully produced and ready to be released when Epic gives it the go-ahead (With Paul being the only original member). Unfortunately, Epic doesn't know if they'll release it. Why they wouldn't is beyond me. Maybe we can start a petition and send it to Epic? - Derek

LMAO...I have a couple extra copies of the new MF4 if you'd like to purchase one....I got them for $15, so you can have one for that + the shipping, if that's any cheaper than hunting it down over there. You heard any new bits off of it? It's awesome..."sick and wrong" plays when their page loads. www.themayfieldfour.com if anyone else is curious.
I hope everyone is OK, and stays that way. Those attackers are going to be caught...this is some scary stuff!!!

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - Whew! Its amazing how much offense people take to an innocent question. Folks, chill out a little bit. They are just a band and it is just music. Black Lab is my favorite band presently, but I see no reason to react harshly to people who ask questions or just speak their minds. Is Black Lab dead? No, but neither are they "alive" either. Their current limbo state will exist until they (and "they" at this point consists of Paul and whoever else may or may not be working under that title) put out another album or go on tour or something. In the meantime lets attempt to be civil and welcoming to the new Black Lab fans who discover this board weekly? Just a thought :-)

- Date: Mon Aug 27 15:57
HELLO! (not@again.com): - HELLO!!!! There is no "THEM" It's over! Are You Mental? They broke up. Paul has a new deal, no one else,just Paul. No more Black Lab as we knew it. Their contract was swallowed up in the Geffen/Interscope buy out. Along with a dozen other bands and performers. Stop trying to glorify their demise. It's over. Really simple.
- Date: Mon Aug 27 01:43
who cares (minorfelony@minorfelony.com): - They had some good songs and alot of crap. But the good songs I loved. This band is gone only for one reason. The music did not generate money for the producers. Leaving a broken band . All looking for money and fighting for what is left is only seperating them more. I hope a new company picks them up and pays them well. They need to put their heads together and work on new music and work on finding a new label. They did well! Yet in L.A. They were on the Buffy sound track and were only considered a garuge band here. Sometimes fame distortes reality. This has killed them. Lets all wish for the best.

Jill (IndigoMove@cs.com): - Alrighty, thanks you guys for the info on whether the band is still around. Nothing is definite but I'm thinking that we're all basically just waiting for news on them having a label or up-coming album. And someone mentioned something about their 98' tour with OLP...they played here (north carolina) on that tour but of course I missed it so I'm feeling the same way you are...I'm just hoping that wasn't the last of them. Talk to you people later, bye.

But I would love to see them!

Brendan (Particle56@aol.com): - Hey! Someone else from Philly!!! :)
I dunno about their hows gettin cancelled. They played Fez 98 methinks (which I missed) and they opened for Athenaeum once (which I also missed dammit)
Other than that, I don't remember any other Philly dates.

Sarah (sara49@hotmail.com): - Hey, I'm a huge fan of Black Lab, and I was devestated when I heard they broke up. But now that someone said they might be back together I had to post that I am extremely excited, both times they ever were suppose to perform in Philly to my knowledge it got canceled, so I hope I didn't miss my chance to see one of the best unknown bands! So if anyone hears anything about them getting back together please post and share the info, I would definitely appreciate it!

It has definately become one of my favorite cd's and I would recommend it to anyone who hasn't heard it!

"Kenny Aronoff (--Studio drummer..Steiney--)kicked off 2001 with a bang. the first two months saw him recording with Alice Cooper, Willie Nelson, Billy Dean, Michelle Branch, BLACK LAB(!!!),..."
Apparently it might be similiar to the Guns and Roses situation where there is still a band named Guns and Roses but AXl is the only original one...Just thought I'd share

Mike (mryans01@msn.com): - Would anyone happen to know where I could find any kind of promotional posters or handbills from Black Lab's concerts? I'd like to get one for a friend of mine who is also a big fan. I recieved a signed promo picture from the band back in Dec '99, but I'm not giving that up! I've looked everywhere on the web and I can't find anything at all except for YBAM. Anyways, thanks to everyone who's still posting messages on the site. It's nice to get news about Michael and Paul's future projects. If there are any Black Lab fans left in Kansas, send some e-mail!

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - Just to show what a little digging can do...i continued searching, and today FOUND the Time Ago video! If you go to GetMusic.com and search for Black Lab, it comes up as one of the results, and you can watch the video in either RealPlayer or Windows Media format. It looks pretty well done; evocative and poignant as always. Black Lab really does kick ass :-)
- Date: Fri Jul 27 06:58
Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - I think MTV is trying to tease me :-) The page that lists all the videos is still up, but of course the one that actually would have Black Lab's video is not. I guess they're more current than I was hoping with taking off videos of bands no longer together or active. Anyone else have any suggestions? S, thanks for trying, I appreciate it.
- Date: Thu Jul 26 22:15
S (Starbars@yahoo.com): - Phil: I cannot remember if they made videos for both, but I know for sure that there is one for Time Ago. I am not sure if this link still works, but you can check it out: http://www.mtv.com/mtv/music/120min/archive.html or the direct link: http://www.mtv.com/mtv/video/clips/b/black_lab/timeago.mov .

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - Question for those more in the know than I am...i've been reading over some of the much earlier posts on this board, and a few times I've heard mention of a Time Ago video. Now, i've never seen a single video of a Black Lab song...are there really some out there? And if so, anyone know where there might be one for me to check out? I'd really like to see what was done visually to compliment the song (or any BL song, for that matter)...thanks!

Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - In reply to a post below about Alternative Addiction - I have been speaking with the guy who runs Alternative Addiction, and I convinced him to post a new single. Myself and Phil (pabocci1) agreed that Walk Slow would be a great new single for them to add. They almost did "See the Sun" but me and Phil mutually agreed on Walk Slow, and they took our advice. Hopefully this shows some of their visitors how great Black Lab really was/is. If anyone finds out ANY more information on Paul signing with Epic or a release date, please let us know! I also got them to post a thing I wrote about BL in their news section. If you haven't been to alternativeaddiction.com, go there, you won't regret it. - Derek

Brendan (Particle56@aol.com): - Vote for "Walk Slow" on Alternative Addiction!
"Walk Slow" has been added to alternativeaddiction.com 's top 20 countdown. Head on over and vote.. show that Black Lab still has fans out there!! "I Don't Love You (Like I Used To)" made it up to #5... Walk Slow is a much better song and can do much better.......and I'm rambling aren't I? :P :)

Steiney (Steiney_77@yahoo.com): - You know, I can clearly see both points of view on file trading but I have to agree with the last post completely..I am not saying it is right, but when I heard Black Lab "broke up" or at least broke up in the Guns and Roses sense of the word (where AXL has the name but is the only one left from the original band) I was devistated..Your Body Above Me was such a Great CD, it left a LOT of us wanting more..Am I saying it's "right", No but ..."HAVE YOU HEARD THE UNRELEASED STUFF??"..It is phenomenal!! (My favorite is Circus Lights but all of it is Amazing)...I don't know, somehow knowing that there is unreleased stuff out there that you can find if you look for it gives you a feeling like having some kind of intimate connection with the band..I don't know, it's kinda silly and I am kind of rambling (Sorry, I haven't got much zzz's lately)..
- Date: Sun Jul 15 12:45
Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - In Defense of "Trading" -
Anonymous, I must first say that I respect your opinion and admire the fact that you'd post it in a place like this, where you probably wouldn't find much support.
Now, that being said. I agree that its easy for file sharing to get out of hand, and I can't say that, looked at from a completely objective standpoint, every instance of this "trading" is "right" (not to even mention legal). But that's not really the point in this little discussion. I first heard of Black Lab almost accidentally, and did get an MP3 by them. But I loved it and them so much that I went out and purchased their CD, which does give money back to the band. However, as we all know they broke up, and that means that they cannot get revenue from songs not released. I love "Circus Lights," but without it being on a CD there is no traditional way for me to hear it and pay the band back for it. But I will, if they put out another CD in some fashion, purchase THAT, thereby partially compensating the band for all the listening pleasure they've given me.
So, is "trading" always right? Not necessarily. But in a case like this is looking for extra stuff from a band we all love justified? I'd say yes. But YMMV, of course.
- Date: Sun Jul 15 12:35
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Hey "Anonymous" - I would gladly pay for these songs, because they're some of the best songs I've ever heard. Where's the mailing address to send the money? They've broken up and I don't think they care about the music that they never released on a cd.
- Date: Sat Jul 14 17:14
Anonymous (Anonymous@person.org): - I seriously think that this "trading" has gone too far. I love Black Lab, but I have what I have. I am not pro-Metallica for the Napster lawsuit, but I do think that it is ripping musicians off. Black Lab for instance are not getting a dime for everyone of us to have 20+ unreleased songs. I know that I cannot speak for everyone, especially not the band, but calm down with this downloading/trading; it has gone too far!
- Date: Sat Jul 14 11:54
Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - Derek, I don't think you can find those songs anywhere on the net. I posted on the fan-to-fan mailing list a while back about posting the songs, and Michael asked me not to because they were still rough demos.
- Date: Thu Jul 12 00:00
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Hey Kane the only song I DO have from that list you put down is "I Am Free." Is there anywhere I can get the rest of those? I can't find any of them on Audio Galaxy... thanks! - Derek

Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Hey Jerusalem Jackson, Gates of the Country is already on YBAM and IS Acoustic... if there's another MORE Acoustic version I don't really need it because the one on the album is acoustic enough for me hehe :)

- Date: Tue Jul 10 17:01
Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - "The Good Life" was one of the demos Paul and Michael recorded. In fact, if you go to the "on the road" section of this site and play the Happy Holloween greeting (not sure if it still works), you can see them mixing that very song. Also, someone mentioned something about Paul's earlier work with his band before Blak Lab, Durham; I have a copy of the Durham Demos, which includes a very different acoustic version of "Time Ago" and an earlier version of "Thin White Lie" called "Ole" with different lyrics.
- Date: Tue Jul 10 10:20
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Has anyone ever heard the song "The Good Life" by Black Lab? I found it on Audio Galaxy and I've never heard it before. I don't like it much but could this be something new from Paul? Thanks - Derek

Shaun (freddy19@hotmail.com): - I just wanted to comment on how much I love this band. I've been a Black Lab fan for years and still haven't gotten sick of listening to "Your Body Above Me" almost everyday. I so wish I would have been able to seen them play live. Unfortunately, I am based on the east coast so San Fran is quite a hike for a show. Anyway, I wanted to say that this band has become a huge part of my life. So many memories have been forged to the tune of Black Lab and they will forever live in my memories as a staple of everything good in my youth. Thanks guys. Any chance I may get to see you play again someday???

Michael Belfer
v.
Paul Durham, dba Black Lab, Adam Ritholz, Liebowitz, Roberts & Ritholz, Rick Smith and Wild Justice. Anyone able to find out more about court cases? Anyone know where all the unreleased MP3 stuff came from? Is it all stuff written after My Body Above Me, or is some of it pre Black Lab Paul Durham stuff he demoed?

Clair (cabbey@steelalloy.co.uk): - How behind the times am I?!! I have just heard the Black Lab song that is on the Buffy soundtrack and it is excellent. Is all of their stuff as good as this and where do I get it from? I live in England, by the way.
- Date: Thu Jul 5 20:26
kristian (no@way.com): - Also try www.audiogalaxy.com. As posted earlier. It's got everything you're asking for. As for I am a DJ, there is no other version except the live one as it is a cover of an old (i think) Bowie song.
- Date: Wed Jul 4 23:00
john (whatis@up): - yeah, you can find most of black lab's unreleased stuff on gnucleus. if you go to yahoo and type in gnucleus, you can find where to download the program. i looked and saw most of black lab's unreleased stuff on there, so i'm pretty sure you'll be able to find what you are looking for.

evan (mfc_9@hotmail.com): - does anyone know where to get black lab's unreleased material? i have most of it, but i'm missing I am a DJ(not-live version, if one exists), I am Free, I don't love you (like I used to), Walk Slow, and What Child is This. They're nowhere to be found on Napster, or using Bear Share, and that mymusic.com account listed earlier has been suspended according to the website. any help would be greatly apprieciated. thanks.

- Date: Wed Jul 4 06:59
Simon (mewisemagic@iprimus.com.au): - I think the legal concerns were based on the ownership of the material that we regard as the 'unreleased' and not the 'name' "Black Lab". Paul wants them for himself without sharing credit. Michael is the main contributer to the creation of the songs and hence the legal procedings. Michael deserves more credit than what he has been attributed with and therefore I support his attempt to gain the credit he deserves!!!!!!!
- Date: Wed Jul 4 00:14
Yea (thank@you): - Thank you Dan for your insight! What you said makes sense. Thank you for reminding me about the legal battle between Michael and Paul; I completely forgot about that! Thank you again for your help!
- Date: Tue Jul 3 22:31
Dan (amergin@nji.com): - The whole Black Lab name thing is probably the big part of the legal battle Michael mentioned in his post. Only two songs on "Your Body Above Me" list the whole band as song writers, so I guess I could accept Black Lab without Michael. Michael's guitar work really made those songs, though. Wil from Meriwether was nice enough to respond to an email I sent to the contact address on thier website.. said they are recording the songs with Michael now and hope to update the Meriwether site soon. If Paul does have the rights to Black Lab, it's only a matter of time before this site will probably be taken off line again. I think Michael has the admin rights to this site. Well, thanks for the info Derek and others.

John (whatis@up): - yeah rick, go ahead and tell your son you listen to his cd. me and my dad don't share many common music interests, and i know if my dad told me that he liked black lab, i'd be pretty impressed. and just think, if he decides that black lab isn't cool anymore because you like them, you can have the cd to yourself, but i don't think that's likely to happen, especially with a band like black lab. if you like black lab, you should try to get some of their unreleased stuff off of napster or gnucleus. gnucleus is a file sharing program that i've started using since napster got destroyed by the record companies. if you go to yahoo and type in gnucleus, it will give you the webpage. i was looking tonight, and i saw most all of black lab's unreleased stuff on gnucleus, so everyone who has been looking for the band's unreleased stuff can find it there. i hope that paul's new black lab will be as good as the last one, and even though it isn't the original band, i still highly anticipate the chance to hear new black lab music.
- Date: Mon Jul 2 23:41
Rick DeGroot (none@none.com): - hi, i am newto the internet. i havent used it much. my son has the black lab CD and i listen to it when he isn't. I love them! do you guys think i should tell my son that i also like Black Lab?

Steiney (Steiney_77@yahoo.com): - Question for the informed..Are the names of the unreleased or rare songs on Napster available, or at least some kind of working titles..In particular I am looking for the name of one that I have as both Circus and Lights..You know how Napster Labelling goes...Hope to hear ANYTHING from these guys whether they are together or apart...

Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Correction : The song name is actually "Eden," not Turn the Page. :)
- Date: Sat Jun 30 15:11
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Hey Andy C... I've been hooked to "Turn the Page" from Mayfield Four's new album! Anyone here should really give their new stuff a listen, this is the only song I've heard so far on the new record, but I couldn't believe how good it was. It took a couple listens to grow on me, but it's one of my favorite songs right now.

Rodrigo (cobain@gmx.ch): - Well I just heard from very high quality source that Paul Durham`s first solo Album has already been mixed in the year 2000 and that he`s not going to play in Black Lab anymore he signed to Epic but I`m not imformed about the release date and if Black Lab is going to exisst without him

Andy C. (andy701@yahoo.com): - OH my my my.... i've just went back and ready through the year and a half of the message boards.. :) well, i didn't read every entry.. LOL. But looks like Paul has a bit of Axl Rose in him. In that he wanted to Control it all, and Will Most Likley keep the name Black Lab since he's the front man. But who knows.
Now that i think back, the only 2 members that really were out with the fans signing autographs and interacting with the fans were Michael and Geoff. Paul was there, but didn't really talk much. Mickael would bring out a guitar and show you some riffs and chords. Geoff would hang out and bullshlt. So i guess it would be wierd going to see Black Lab, with only Paul up there. THere'd be no Geoff with a purple bass. No Michael with a cool new guitar almost every time. :) I swear in all the shows i've been to, seems like he had a new guitar every time.
Well, Michael, i wish you the best, and i will definatley try to check out MERIWETHER.

ANDY C. (andy701@yahoo.com): - Hello Fellow Labbers. I just wanted to let you all know that Mayfield Four's CD came out this week. They'll be touring with Everclear this summer, so go check em out. For thoes of you who saw BLACK LAB with FUEL & Mayfield Four back during the Summer 1998 you'll know what to expect. :) LOUD MUSIC!!! ~later~ Andy from Fresno,CA. USA.
- Date: Thu Jun 28 19:09
Ahem (Wh@t!): - Is that legal to keep the band name? Is Michael objecting to this? Imagine seeing black lab without Michael. Paul is the singer, but Michael was the single source that made the band, in my opinion.
- Date: Thu Jun 28 05:38
Rodrigo (cobain@gmx.ch): - A new record of Black Lab that`s what I``ve been waiting for almost 3 Years!!
Well, if that`s true than I`m happy by now.

Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - The source also stated that the material is basically finished and that is was supposed to be released in July or August. It was pushed back due to some small stuff like their web-site not being updated for awhile and stuff. The source also said that the new stuff is great. "Sounds like a couple of hits too." - Derek
- Date: Thu Jun 28 01:32
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Black Lab - new album Expected Release Date : January 2002
Paul got new band members, but the record company wants them to keep the name Black Lab. I can't say who told me this. Believe it if you wish, but my source is pretty reliable.
- Date: Wed Jun 27 23:47
John (whatis@up): - This is the first post i've ever made, but I've kept up with the band for a while. It's really too bad they broke up, and by listening to their unreleased stuff, they could have put out many more off-the-chain albums. Anyway, i just wanted to add that i looked on epic record's website, and searched their artists, but neither paul durham nor black lab is listed. the list may only be artists with released albums, but it doesn't say. so, if anybody knows what's goin on with that let us know.
- Date: Tue Jun 26 22:48
hey! (AddtoJon@yeah): - I found this site: http://www.hoaxproductions.com/discog.html. It says that black lab is coming out with a CD this summer with Epic Records and the producer is Paul Durham. As we all know, they were linked (or at least Paul was linked) to Epic. Is something going on that we don't know about?? ...Only in dreams... :) I will post more if I find anything.

It`s good to see that this band is still around, and I hope that you`ll find a label. You should come to Switzerland or better said to europe for some gigs I think this band would blow away the People here! so the best whishes for the future and keep on rockin`.

I found this about Paul.. It doesn't go into detail.
http://www.melodic.net/magwire/magwire3.htm
Paul signed a solo deal with Epic. Coincedently, the Tories are mentioned a sentence above the statement about Paul.
Those of you looking to get Black Labs unreleased songs should try www.audiogalaxy.com.. It is like napster but maintains a list of all the songs it can locate. I was asleep when the first wave of MP3s were going around and had been searching for them for a few months now.

If anyone has any info at all, please email me and let me know. I've heard Michael and Brian are pursuing other music interests at this time, but nothing on Paul yet. I'd appreciate any info any of you have! Also, a couple bands you might wanna check out are the Red House Painters (mellow, moody, emotional rock) and Atlanta-based Cool for August. Hope to hear from SOMEONE soon....Oh! And any Black Lab stickers? Anyone? Anyone?

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - Everyone -
Some of the fans in these parts, myself included, are trying to organize a time when all of us can meet in the chat room you link to from this page and talk about Black Lab, music, and just general stuff. To give people a little time to find this message and work a chat into their schedule, we're planning on having the first chat (with any luck there will be more than one) Saturday, June 23, at 8pm EST. I'm not sure how long it'll last, but the more people that show up, the better. And, if anyone more closely associated with the band wanted to show up, that'd be great too! Hope to see everyone there! :-)

Helper (older@fan): - The merchandise is not for sale. It hasn't been for probably two years. Maybe I am exaggerating, a year and a half? Michael was very generous with the stickers, but I personally don't have any left. Maybe email the bl list and ask if anyone has any sitting around. I can't believe how long it has been since black lab was a band! Amazing.

Incidentally, I have a question for the more knowledgeable Labophiles out there. I made my way to the Merchandise page of the website, and those tee-shirts look pretty darn cool. Were they released in any fashion? Anyone know where to get one? And for that matter does anyone know of ANY Black Lab merchandise floating around out there? I looked on ebay (and boy was I sick of seeing dog stuff when I was done) to to end. Heck, I'd be interested in bumper stickers, almost anything. If anyone could fill us in, that'd be much appreciated. Thanks folks :-)

I would have driven up there myself, but my lemon of a car would not have made it. I did see them at their last show at the Viper Room in Los Angeles; they sound as tight as ever and i got to hear a few new songs (I also have Paul's setlist). One of these days I'll put up a site to post all my Black Lab memorabilia.

Cam (cM GilLiNs@aol.com): - I know that no matter what happens Black Lab will always be my favorite bands for what they've given to me, however I just want to know it the patrons like Kane and Jen Drymier (sorry about the spelling Jen) are still just hanging around here waiting for something to happen, or do people like these know something that the general public doesn't. I have a hard time thinking that the people that have been here the longest and have a greater passion for the band are just...sitting...and waiting...for...something...to...happen. Please, if you know anything you know where to find me. I am from AZ and I went to Frisco to see them play at Slim's. Great times. I just want to know if it was all done for nothing. Thanks

Jimmy the Saint (sandman462@Yahoo.com): - Riiight. I hope that the fan postings are a bit more current than the site's news, but I got no way to tell bacause the postings have no YEAR posted by them... It saddens me to see a talented band like this get cut by those money grubbing record labels. According to Don Henely it is currently the worst treatment of artists he's ever seen in more than 20 years in the industry. Anyway, if anyone ACTUALLY has news I'll check later. Death to pop.

James (jpwdragon@aol.com): - What's going on with Black Lab? Haven't heard any news on the band in over a year. Are they still together? Your Body Above Me was such an awesome album, I was wondering if they're working on anything new. Well let me know via E-mail. Thanks.

Squeegie Dude (yeah@dream-on.net): - I am the Squeegie Dude. I am shapeless, faceless, timeless, and sugarless for you diabetics. I leave no streaks. I am exactly what you think I am, and everything that you don't think I am. And I went to Disneyland this week. YBAM is in the stereo. I have found it is possible for hell to be hotter than hell coz I'm in it.

When is your next tour schedule. You have the BIGGEST fans here in Chicago and I thought it would be really great if I could surprise them with concert tickets and possibly back stage passes to your next show. Please Please Please let me know where you'll be playing next.
Awaiting your response! Sincerely, LISA

Phil (pabocci1@aol.com): - I've got a few questions for anyone lurking around these parts. I first really heard about Black Lab from the Top 20 over at alternativeaddiction.com (they've featured the band's "I Don't Love You" for a few months now), and I've come to regard them as one of my favorite groups. But being a relatively new fan I'm kinda confused about how things stand at present. From what I've gathered, first the band's label deserted them, and then they broke up. Is that correct? Are things still being put into motion to release their post YBAM material in some fashion? What bands have the individual members of the group moved on to? Do they still lurk around these parts, too? I've rounded up a few of the band's songs in MP3 format. Are there any recommendations in that area from everyone? Thanks folks :-)
- Date: Wed May 16 14:31
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I bought the YBAM CD and have all of the songs in mp3 format. I also have all of the B-Sides and Soundtrack songs. IM me at: DDeG10
- Date: Mon May 14 21:26
me (commie007@hotmail.com): - hey, for leslie, kate, and anyone else:
i have a burner and most (if not all) of the songs not on ybam. if you want, i could put like 15 copies on ebay for whoever wants them. i'd make the bid price like 10 cents or something. contact me if you're interested.
- Date: Mon May 14 10:17
Leslie (lndonsuede@aol.com): - Hi there! I was just wondering if anyone has all the blacklab b-sides, soundtrack songs, and those songs on the site that have Mp3's for them on a cd that they could burn for me. I love blacklab but my computer is ghetto. If someone could do that I would pay them and send them a cdr if they want. Have a groovy day!
Leslie
please email me at Lndonsuede@aol.com if you can help me.
- Date: Thu May 10 21:44
Not telling ;-) (youre@unsure): - Okay, now that we have been through so much together, I want Squeegie Dude to reveal his/her identity. :)
- Date: Wed May 9 13:58
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - First off.. THANK GOD the site is back! I gave up on the site in March since it was down so long. I was listening to "Anything" from Black Lab and decided to check the site, and found that it was up! Anyways, to my point. I looked down and saw a post containing this = "Hmm, surprised that nobody's caught on to this one yet... Black Lab are working on new recordings in Miami... I'd heard that it's just one or two original guys plus some studio musicians..." Do you guys think that Paul is recording another album without Michael and is still using the Black Lab name? Makes me wonder...
- Date: Tue May 8 14:38
kate garrett (kg06@aol.com): - well how depressing is this! i'm a bit (perhaps more than a "bit) behind
the times... just found out what's going on-- and im bummed, i wont lie.
psyched that you're doing your thing, michael--and all my best for that. i
wish it had all ended well (things never end well! otherwise they wouldnt
end! haaa..).. ok ok done with the tangent for now. did anyone have
success putting together a compilation of all their nonybam stuff? id be
interested in sweet talking someone into making a deal with me
(w/napster being a pain i cant do much)..... im glad everyones here,
missed you guys. tkae care, hope to talk soon-
- Date: Sun Apr 29 15:25
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Wow. It's nice to see this site is back. Hey Will, if your band gets the "big record deal", make sure you come to Toronto, Canada.
- Date: Mon Apr 23 13:47
Victor (vdl@andrew.cmu.edu): - Can anyone out there get me the "Take It Back" mp3? I've heard the song and I just love it, but I can't find it anywhere. If you can help me, please send me an email! I think it's great that you guys have all kept this site going even though the band members have gone their separate ways. It's great to see so many people like me who found Black Lab's music so awesome!

kristian (krispa75@hotmail.com): - Gates of the Country chords for the dude who posted a little earlier: Verse is Em7/G/A/C. The A I play as an Aadd2 (leave out the C# on the B string) Chorus is G/D/Cadd2 or just plain C of you like. I kinda like the way the D gets pedalled trhoughought so I always add the two on that C Chord.
- Date: Tue Apr 17 03:10
um no (um@no.com): - um no that would not be happening acutally my little friend i think you missed the whole blacklab breaking up thing you may want to read down the posts a bit :D
- Date: Sun Apr 15 15:11
gbvlife (skyfall21@collegeclub.com): - Yep...that would be correct. : )
- Date: Sun Apr 15 03:02
me. (carlito2k@hotmail.com): - Hmm, surprised that nobody's caught on to this one yet... Black Lab are working on new recordings in Miami... I'd heard that it's just one or two original guys plus some studio musicians...
- Date: Sun Apr 15 02:02
gbvlife (skyfall21@collegeclub.com): - Annie, what's Diffuser's e-mail? I tried accessing it through their web site, but the link doesn't work on my computer. I just saw them with SR-71 and DexteR Freebish recently too. Fantastic show. : ) Have a wonderful Easter everyone!
- Date: Thu Apr 12 11:06
Jerusalem Jackson (BKNBLK1@aol.com): - Hey Marcel, I do have the Rubberneck album from Toadies. I got it when it came out and I have loved it. It's been torture waiting years for their newest release, but it's been worth it. Also, another local Texas band that everyone should check out is Dollybraid. Their new, but they are definitely big up and comers. I can't wait to check out Meriwether's stuff I'm sure it's going to be great.
- Date: Thu Apr 12 08:42
Annie aka I'm LEGAL FINALLY! (zoso16@hotmail.com): - Hey you guys! I'm glad the site is back up, anyways about 3 weeks ago I went to see SR-71, because Dexter Freebish was opening, DF was sooooo good, I was a happy girl by the end of the night, and Diffuser was the first band to play. They completely rocked, I really had no intention of seeing them because I had never heard of them. Which was pretty much the same way I fell into bl when I went to see OLP, so check out Diffuser if you get a chance! And they email back too which is nice!
- Date: Wed Apr 11 01:39
gbvlife (skyfall21@collegeclub.com): - Check out the band Bryan (Head) is playing in presently... The Tories. They just released their newest effort. Look for upcoming shows in LA and San Francisco! = )
www.tories.com
Creeper Lagoon's new album is out April 17th... definitely check it out.
- Date: Wed Apr 11 01:00
will (will@meriwethermusic.com): - hey folks. wow, so great to see so many of you music lovers all in one place. A rare breed indeed.
Just wanted to drop a note to introduce myself. my name is Will Johnson and I'm the founder of the band Meriwether which our good friend Michael Belfer joined late last year shortly after Black Lab disbanded. To give you a little recent history, i pretty much just called him out of the blue to see what he was up to as I had been looking for a lead guitarist for the band for close to 2 years, and if he wasn't available perhaps he could recommend someone. I had to take the good fortune of him being free to check out what I was doing with a grain of salt because Black Lab was one of my favorite bands, and one of the best this area has produced in quite a while. In fact, when i was auditioning guitarists, before they even pulled their guitar out I would play them two records: The Black Lab record and Matthew Sweet's Girlfriend. So you can imagine my excitement when he invited me over and agreed to listen to what I was up to.
We immedietely began writing and recording song ideas together. He has also had a huge hand in, along with the other band members, Daniel Schacht and Steve Bowman, rearranging and rewriting most of the original Meriwether material.
I choose to stay clear of the politics behind the breakup of Black Lab. It's an unfortunate but fairly common happening in the world of music. Music is a difficult thing to persue, you have to trust your instincts at every turn, especially at the level this band was at. There are good decisions and bad decisions made and it's hard to know which one your making at the time. I'm sure we all wish the rest of the band the best of luck.
If, like me, part of your reason for coveting this band was Michaels incomparable guitar work and song contributions, then I invite you to check out what he and I are up to with Meriwether. I think you will be pleased.
I realize this may be a little premature as our site is being overhauled from what it was to what it will be, but, as many of you have found already, there is a place where you can submit your email to our list so we can let you know immediately when the new site ready. One of the first things we will post is a handful of MP3's of the songs Michael and I and the band are currently finishing up together. Also, for you Bay Area folks, make a note of our next performance at the Make Out Room in SF on the 23rd of this month. Our last before we retreat into a recording coma for a while.
Anyway, just thought I'd introduce myself...
Thanks,
Will

Steiney (Steiney_77@yahoo.com): - Oh yeah..one more thing..please update the list of albums we need to check out..St. Louis radio definitely sucks (with the exception of 93.3 KNSX but that is hard to pick up) and I could use some recommendations..
- Date: Tue Apr 10 23:15
Steiney (Steiney_77@yahoo.com): - I am definitely glad this site is back up..although I know the band is no more, it hurts less knowing of others who are into the music just as much as I am..by the way, It's a shame that the second CD never came out, I have downloaded a lot of the "RARE" songs off of Napster and they are phenomenal!! My favorite song I have found this way is titled (and knowing Napster this probably isn't the real title) CIRCUS
I have said it before and I will say it again, I loved everything about Black Lab..too bad about Paul..anyone know about touring info/or anything about CDs or tapes or anything else by merriwether or Paul Durham band..I am VERY interested..
- Date: Tue Apr 10 21:07
Marcel Jankowski (marceltj@yahoo.com): - Jerusalem Jackson - You should check out the Toadies first album with songs like "Tyler" and "Awake"....

Johners (johners@amserve.net): - I'd just like to say you song, keep myself awake, really touches my heart man, me and my Caroline have danced to it many times and love it dearly. Cheers (Eng)
- Date: Mon Apr 9 18:59
Jerusalem Jackson (BKNBLK1@aol.com): - Have any of you guys heard of The Toadies? They are awesome - they have a sound similar to Foo Fighters or Weezer- anyways their new album, "Hell Below/Stars Above," just came out and I'm doing my best to let everyone know just how great it is! After hearing the first single "Heel" on the radio I went out and picked up a copy- and it's totally worth owning! They have this awesome rock sound that you don't hear too much any more, especially now that Black Lab has broken up. They're on tour now with Diffuser and you should DEFINITELY check that show out! I saw The Toadies live a while ago and it was incredible. Go to www.thetoadies.com for tour info to see when they are passing by your town- also if you have any Toadies info PLEASE POST!!! I want to know more about this awesome band.

- Date: Sun Jan 21 16:30
I (have@question): - In "Perfect Girl" and "Tell Me Why" is that Michael singing backup vocals? I have been pondering this question since I first heard these songs; yes, it was a year ago, and I just never asked. It sounds like his voice.
- Date: Sun Jan 21 00:29
Lisa (bowiechaser@aol.com): - Hrm, I was just checking out metal-sludge.com and their sludge scans, looking for how many cd's a couple of bands had sold. Came across two I requested from them, lol....Black Lab and The Mayfield Four. BL had sold 104,054 copies by Nov '99, and MF4 5,079 (or close to that) by the same time. Weird, how BL sold WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY more, and MF4 is the one putting out the new cd (due out in April, supposedly going to be called SECOND SKIN, and gonna ROCK YOUR NUTS OFF!). That just sucks....dang Paul and his solo stuff, HOW RUDE!
- Date: Sat Jan 20 01:19
Stephie (sexykitty_18@hotmail.com): - hello everybody... I have just developed black lab fever and i was wondering where tracks such as 'take it back' and 'perfect girl' are from?
btw... hiya Jonny... long time no speak.. weird to run into you here... LoL... i was dt near your place the other day... thought about you... was wondering how you were doing and all =) e-mail me... we will chat. =)

Amanda (nedamanda@hotmail.com): - chris, You are so right!! I think this whole part of the country is boring. hehe. I think you're referring to the movie 'Fargo', am I right? It definately fits this area. I spent some time in Tucson for christmas too. It's definately looking good. Nice break from "Hicksville, USA" hehe, or whatever you want to call it.
- Date: Tue Jan 16 05:59
Chris (Chris8301@aol.com): - Amanda: i'm sorry but i guess nobody told you, there is no south dakota, this is no north dakota, there are both plain and boring and therefore gel into one big freakin dakota of pure boredome and movies of people being put through wood chopper thingy's. But i am feeling the bond because, like everyone else here we both love Black Lab, but beyond that.. i was born in Tucson too, i was just there over Christmas Break, lookin good.
- Date: Mon Jan 15 20:40
Amanda (nedamanda@hotmail.com): - Lisa: Hmmm? Well, right now I am living in South Dakota. But, I found out about Black Lab and became a fan while living in Tucson AZ:) (my hometown..woohoo!!!)
- Date: Mon Jan 15 19:14
Lisa (bowiechaser@aol.com): - To clareinoz: That sucks that you've never seen them live!! They did indeed put on a good show. I know I've had my smartassy remarks about someone in the past, but I'm ignoring that for the moment and focusing on the good. I've agreed after making a big jerk out of myself that all together, each separate guy in the band created a very cool feel, and it came out in concert like that, too. There *are* video'd concerts of them....I wonder if they will ever be able to make copies and sell them for, ohhh, sayyyyy, $15 each, plus shipping? That would be WONDERFUL, and they don't have to be *perfect* quality. I'm sure that all of us who can afford to fork over the cash for it, would! I would, because they kick major tail live (unless you're in a bit of a pissy mood). To Michael: Thank you for posting now that you can. Being in the dark sucks...and even though I love his voice, that really *REALLY* sucks that Paul did such a heinous move towards you all. Did he take Geoff with him, or is it all new guys...Hrmmm...I ask because it was him and Geoff when they did that surprise acousic set without the other guys. That was cool, but I was expecting them all...not just Paul and Geoff. (I got to hear them play Horses, though, so that was SOOOOOOOOO awesome!!) Ok, this is my massive post for the year. Amanda, where are you at that you're so far away from CA?
- Date: Fri Jan 12 13:51
clareinoz (clare_in_oz@hotmail.com): - i know it is like when toad the wet sprocket split and we are now getting glen phillips solo and lapdog :D but they split on unlaywer terms so i could be a little happy except for the fact i never got to see toad or blacklab live :(
- Date: Fri Jan 12 09:58
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - On the bright side, we'll be getting new material from "Meriwether" AND "The Paul Durham Band". I hope he doesn't keep the rights to the name "Black Lab". It would only boost his ego more.
- Date: Tue Jan 9 11:38
Mike (Icantbelieve@thetruthhurts.com): - well, this just sucks. now i have to believe it's all true because michael posted something himself. once again, this sucks.
- Date: Mon Jan 8 12:42
Steiney (Steiney_77@yahoo.com): - I too am trying to build some sort of collection of any and all songs of Black Lab's that aren't on YBAM...It breaks my heart to hear about what happened to the band...If you guys read this thanks for being a GREAT BIG influence on me musically.
- Date: Mon Jan 8 07:47
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I thought "Take It Back" was actually called "You Say". Look for "Walk Slow" on Napster.
- Date: Sun Jan 7 05:36
Run2FijianSeas (Run2FijianSeas@home.com): - Hey guys, I am trying to get a complete collection of black lab rare/unreleased mp3s, and I have the following songs, I was just wondering if there are any I have missed? I have: Black Eye, Keep Myself Awake, Pictures of People, James, Horses, Tell Me What to Say, Circus Lights, I Am Free, I Don't Love You (Like I Used to), Perfect Girl, Play W/ Fire, Hole in the Sky, Rock Star, See the Sun, Take it Back, Tell Me Why, The Good Life, Underground, What Child is This
If any of you know of any I don't have, please let me know! Or, if any of you want a copy of any of the ones I have listed, let me know as well. Thanks!

amanda (nedamanda@hotmail.com): - Hi everyone! And to Michael, thanks for the update. I know you've been waiting for the right time to post anything...and it's good to see that you felt like now was the right time. I also want to thank you for everything you've done for the fans...very few bands have members that will take the time to get to know their fans on a personal level, as you do.:) Thanks!!!I know I'm a little far from Cali right now but I'll definately try to stop by to see Meriwether play. Oh, by the way..thanks for the cd, I really like it!!
- Date: Sat Jan 6 17:26
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Thanks for the update Michael! I wish you and your new band the best of luck in the future. Is there a web-site address? If you guys don't have a site but need one, email me and I can hook you up. I do web-design for a living :-). Thanks again, and I hope all works out well for you.

Michael Belfer (blacklab23@hotmail.com): - Hey Peeps!! it`s sweet to see so many familiar names (and some new ones?) still posting here!! Well I hope you all know how much I`ve appreciated all of your support and (continued?) interest in the music, and I finally have a few annoucements to tell you about...but first, I want to try and clear up something.I`m sure you`ve mostly figured out that Black lab as we all knew it, has ceased to exist. What I want to clear up is the "why?" behind this fact. Black Lab did not break up, it was ended by Paul`s actions. In fact, I would go so far to say that I didn`t quit working with him...he conspired with his lawyer to sieze control of our new record deal, turning it into a solo deal for himself, which effectively blocked me from being in the band. It was done out of his need to control everything, or looking at it another way, his inability to share in a more equal way and the fair sharing of the credit(s).I can`t really say it any clearer then that. The only reason I`m saying this at all, is because I think you guys deserve to know what`s up...I mean it was because of all you great fans, that I continued to put as much effort into the band as I did. I have wanted to respond for months, but due to a still unsettled lawsuit I`ve had to keep quite....well, enough about all that!! I wanted to make an annoucement about the new band that I`ve been working on for a few months now.I`ve teamed up with Will Johnson, a local singer/songwriter. The music has restored my faith in people coming together to create because it`s in their blood to do only that...not because of some misguided drive for fame and power!!Anyhoo!!??The band is called Meriwether,and We have our first show Feb. 20th in San Fransico...will update you all a little more when it get`s closer!!
Peace to you All in the new Year!!!

I have wanted to respond for months, but due to a still unsettled lawsuit I`ve had to keep quite....well, enough about all that!! I wanted to make an annoucement about the new band that I`ve been working on for a few months now.I`ve teamed up with Will Johnson, a local singer/songwriter. The music has restored my faith in people coming together to create because it`s in their blood to do only that...not because of some misguided drive for fame and power!!Anyhoo!!??The band is called Meriwether,and We have our first show Feb. 20th in San Fransico...will update you all a little more when it get`s closer!!
Peace to you All in the new Year!!!

A question (for@derek): - How old are you?
- Date: Fri Jan 5 22:06
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I didn't really expect to make any money, just the cost of the CD. But I guess your right about them selling it themselves. Thanks for kicking the sense into me :-)

Annie aka lallala (zoso16@hotmail.com): - Isnt that what Napster is for? Although I did buy the first bl cd and then 2 others from michael.. before i had nap.

Big Fan (BL@StereoSabbath): - Hey Derek, it's cool to try and make the songs available for other fans, but leave the aspect of selling CD's to Michael and Paul; don't try to make money off their songs. I'm sure they're not set for life, this is how they eat.
- Date: Thu Jan 4 19:39
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I changed my mind about posting :-). I have all of the new BL songs on my computer, I also have a cd burner with plenty of CD-R's. If I can get permission or whatever from Michael or Paul or whatever I need to do, I may be able to get some of these out to you guys. Any ideas on what I need to do to go about doing this ? Thanks - Derek

Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I'm outta here...this is my last post. I will post again if we get a statement, wishing BL the best no matter what the post contains. But, before I go I just want to say that I didn't say BL had to give the fans anything or tell us anything. I didn't demand anything. I just wanted to know what was happening because they are by far the most talented band that doesn't get the airtime they deserve. If they were promoted right, they would be huge. I mean there's at least 5 songs I can think up in my head that could make them big if they were given a chance. I just wanted them to stay together, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen. If you guys go over to www.cdnow.com and look them up and read the album review, the reviewer states how great they are. Every person I have had listen to their music liked it. It's just a shame that this band could not have worked out their differences. But, I do not know the situation they are in. I have tried everything to make a difference, but it looks like I failed. Good luck to all.. even those who bashed me. I deserved it.

kristian (kristian@iinet.net.au): - ok.... i've kept out of this whole "are they over/are they not" thing and it's been relatively easy due to the copious amounts of dribble being posted. BUT... why is everyone so eager to slag off at the guys? It's just not necessary. Michael isn't the kind of guy who would shaft people. ie his fans. I've only had limited dealings with him but every time he's gone out of his way to help me get what i've asked for. Do any of you really think he made any money from selling us those live cd's? Think about it. Ten dollars each and he paid for the postage, drove around and posted them. His time alone as a professional musican is worth at least $100 per hour where i come from. If there are legal implications, and it's highly possible, then Michael's silence is completely understandable. Haven't you ever heard "no comment" before? Just be patient grasshoper.....all will reveal itself in time.
- Date: Mon Jan 1 21:00
old (blacklabf@n): - How could someone say this? "If they ever cared about the people that have been here to support them and give them comments about there music, then they would at least tell us the band is done for good" Personally, this outdoes hearing they broke up from Derek. (That is for those of you that heard from him). Michael has done more for me than any band that I know has. He did not have to give me what he did, but he did fu*king care. How many people has he sent things to, for free? I know I'm not the only one. This lawsuit may possibly be about what? Could it be the fact that he gave US all of those songs without Pauls "permission"? Maybe. Who are you to say that if they cared they would support us? They would give you something? Maybe they have to move on. They can't stick around reading every comment and responding to each and every one of us. All Annie had to say I am in agreement with.

So come on give mike a break - but feel free to go hit paul one dead in the face!!!!

Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com):
BLACK LAB UPDATE, STRAIGHT FROM MICHAEL: I got an email from Michael today, and thinks don't look to great for Black Lab. Black Lab had a deal worked out with Epic Records, but Michael said that Paul turned it into a solo deal for himself, and they aren't getting along too well. All I can do is wish for the best, and hope that they work this out and get that deal TOGETHER. This band is awesome, and if they can stick together, their time will come.
- Date: Thu Dec 21 00:58
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Black Lab's future is questionable. We haven't had an update for a few months, but the band has said to be on good terms. We are waiting for an official announcement on what will happen next; New album? New record label? Band is done? It seems like we've been asking these questions forever. I don't know when Black Lab plans to give us, the fans an official announcement. I hope it's soon though, I can't take it much longer.
- Date: Wed Dec 20 09:47
Davis Wilson (anotherdayisgone@hotmail.com): - I must second the opinion of the last post. Your Body Above me is one of my absolute favorite albums, and I very much wish that Black Lab would do something again- another album, a national tour, whatever. What's the deal? Record company issues? I mean, the website hasn't been updated since April!
- Date: Sun Dec 17 23:40
Liam (U2ZooMan@aol.com): - OK, IS BLACK LAB STILL A BAND??? Is it just me or did they fall off the face of the earth? I've downloaded about 14 of the unreleased songs and I absolutely love them. I just wish I knew if I can expect anything more from them, or even any official release of the unreleased stuff. HAVE YOU SEEN THIS BAND? IF SO, LET ME KNOW!!!!

CIO (hehe@cio.com): - hey fellow aussie :P
you can get their album yourbody above me, you can get their singles also wash it away and time ago.
MMM used to play them and i have tried to make them start again but they do not listen. There was a live album for sale at this site but that seems to have been taken down.
I also think they have broken up but nothing has really been confirmed

Their lyrics are deeply moving to me, and I think that Paul has an awesome voice. I can't wait for something new, but hey, I will. After all, I'm a fan, they're the ones behind the music making it all happen for fans like me. I can't complain!

- Date: Tue Dec 12 12:40
larry (none@dia.com): - frankly, this band seems to be pretty lame. they don't even care enough about thier music to perform live, which is really what it's all about. i'm surprised anyone still looks at this website which is just as lame as it was last year(which was when i saw it last). how about a tour you lame-ass excuse for a band? anyone can sit in the studio and record music - don't believe it? just check out the "scene" down in Austin. well actually at least in austin you can see the music live. get with it!

julie (unknown@unknown.com): - i disagree. i downloaded some of their stuff off napster and like what i've heard (simon, everything) in addition to hanging by a moment. their lyrics maybe need a little work, but they're young. i'll have to get their album. headspace i didn't like at all.

Lisa (bowiechaser@aol.com): - Aaaah yes. Never released BL. It's awesome, I really can't say enough about it....and I'll agree with those who said that they (the guys in the band) all came together to form something really cool with their band energy. Regardless of my opinion on each fella as a separate entity, together they had a HELLUVA kickass groove!!!!!!!!! I have roughly 13 songs off Napster that aren't on their YBAM cd, or off the import singles....and I feel VERY fortunate to have them. Any of you ever hear from Micheal anymore? I emailed him a little while back, but I imagine I probably won't get a reply from him, as I have been less than sweet the whole time with him. I do have him to thank, however, because without him, I wouldn't have had so much fun 18 months ago going to a bunch of MAYFIELD FOUR shows. (They have a new cd coming out end of FEB, btw..and their site is gonna be rehauled and all new in a couple of weeks...www.themayfieldfour.com) I made some good friends courtesy of the Portland show BLACK LAB played.

Chris (Xaos_inc@hotmail.com): - Yeah but adding fx and synths is really a desplay of having more money to do so, its not really a change in any way.. in essence you are listening to similar material but with higher quality recording. This isn't bad by any means.
- Date: Mon Nov 20 09:09
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - It seems that whenever a band tries to change drastically the result is bad. Moist's Mercedes Five and Dime and Mighty Mighty Bosstones Pay Attention were brutal. Small changes are good. Collective Soul decided to add some FX and synths to their stuff and the result has been great.

Evil1031 (marlou@lastresort.co.uk): - Okay I just got this idea... I think www.myplay.com sucks, so i've searched for an alternative option.. www.mp3cities.com offers 100MB of webspace. I made an account there, and all I need now is the MP3s. So if someone could be kind enough to upload them there, then e-mail me, then i'll give you the password of the mp3cities.com account. I'm not sure if 100MB is enough but then we can create a 2nd account.
I'll make a simple site (or if anyone else wants to do it, please tell) so the MP3s can be:

The songs i'm looking for are the B-sides, live tracks and those new songs (not the 1st album). The URL of the site is: http://www.mp3cities.com/user/blacklab/
I'm not sure if this is such a brilliant idea though.
Another thing: I never knew there was a live album, is it a bootleg?
Just so you know, this site will be just purely for the fans. So they can at least listen to new and live songs.
So what do you all think of it? Good or bad idea?

Chris (Xaos_inc@hotmail.com): - Sharon, in the intrests of not wanting to slate you I will ignore that BackstreetBoys comment... Point in case though, bands like The Offspring survive by producing something that works and that they know their fan base will buy because it possesses their trademark sound, but I will always be more in awe of bands that bother to try to do different things, Eg.. Blur, the blur album and 13 were such a departure from their usual works and they worked. *whew*

Sharon (monkeypants@werewolf.co.uk): - i have to disagree, warning by green day is a goiod album. it is no where near as good as dookie or nimrod,but by the standards of the stuff being released, its great. So is "black and blue" by backstreet boys. dont scoff - check it out
- Date: Sun Nov 19 20:03
me (commie@pikpuk.com): - hey, no u2 bashing allowed!!! just kidding--i do agree that pop was a disaster. i think the reason for that was the band took an advance on the album so they promised the record company to release it by a certain day; and when that day came around, the album was not in a finished state.
evil1031, what new songs are you looking for? i think i have most of them, if not all...
- Date: Sun Nov 19 14:13
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Has anybody else here heard the new Offspring album? Once again Offspring has kept true to their motto "give 'em more of what they like and nothing new!" It's hard to argue with that philosophy. Bands experimenting has brought us disasters such as U2's POP, Green Day's Warning and 54-40's Since When. Any thoughts?

Evil1031 (velvetchain@hotmail.com): - I'm new and I want to login into myplay.com but it won't let me! aaargh! I get this message all the time: "Sorry, there are too many users on your account at this time". And I cant find anything on Napster either. Isn't there some other way to share those songs? I'm dying to hear some new songs. I already got some, but i want more, more more! lol.

- Date: Sun Nov 12 22:27
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Here's a REAL problem for everyone. It's called CALCULUS! Calculus is a killer. At my school (University of Toronto) there is even a suicide bridge for students to jump off of. All because of Calculus... I bet if Black Lab gets back together Calculus will become easy. :)
- Date: Sun Nov 12 09:52
PoderOmega (patrick-d-yoder@uiowa.edu): - Well, I'm sure everybody has REAL world problems here, maybe even worse than yours (but please let's not go into it). But this forum is MEANT for all those FAKE Black Lab problems. So all you Black Lab fans, put your REAL problems aside, this forum is Black Lab problems and love!!
- Date: Sun Nov 12 02:14
no name (sadgirl@homeofthelostsouls.com): - If you people think you've got problems, you should try stepping in MY shoes, then you'll see REAL problems. So black lab is over or may be over. They did their best and we enjoyed their music. Just remember the good times, suck it up and get over it.

Unknown (none@none.com): - Im trying to convince myself that Black Lab is finished, but it's too hard considering they have so much talent as a whole but yet they are throwing it away. If Paul does come out with a new album, I'll buy it just to remind me of Black Lab, but it's only obvious it will never be the same. As for Lil' Tiger, I'm sorry but I can't stand to listen to it.
- Date: Fri Nov 10 16:22
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Besides, if Paul DOES put out a solo album I don't think we're going to hear about it here. Do you think Paul even knows the URL to this site? I think we'd be more likely to get Lil' Tiger updates on this board and how often do we get those?

PoderOmega (patrick-d-yoder@uiowa.edu): - Phreak, give me an email (patrick-d-yoder@uiowa.edu) I can arrange to have the video for you. Its in old vivo format, but you can still find a viewer somewhere on www.real.com. Its not exactly mpeg, but it is the whole video and its not very big. There was a black lab fan site that had the whole thing streamed, but I dont think the link works anymore. As for anyone else that wants the video, email me and i'll setup a time to be on scour with the video or something (I don't share any of my files most of the time!)

- Date: Wed Nov 8 10:14
Chris (Xaos_inc@hotmail.com): - A solo project doesn't denote a break up, it may be a case of a repreive to get perspective. In any case unless we here firsthand news along these lines I wouldn't be too concerned. Any way keep smiling folks.

He did not really say if the band is broken up but he is definetly working on a solo project with a different set of musicians. And i think it will end up being very cool. -Me
P.S. He had a lady over and i felt bad for calling, but he was really nice.

- Date: Wed Nov 1 21:07
Christopher (donnamartinoriginal@yahoo.com): - So Black Lab may have broken up. Its sad, I know, but its no reason to stop listening to them. If they did break up, they did it for what they thought was best for them. You can't hate someone for doing what makes them happy. You can look on the bright side and look forward to new music with new bands that will be just as amazing. Also, we don't know if they broke up or not. As of now, to me, its a rumor and until I hear otherwise, that's what its going to be. If they didn't break up, then everyone is getting all bent out of shape for no reason.
I'm probably not the biggest fan. I'll admit that. I only have Your Body Above Me. I don't have B sides or bootlegs or anything else, I just have that CD and before March 18, 1998, I had never heard of them. Then they opened for Our Lady Peace at the Granada in LAwrence, KS and I was hooked. They were one of the best concerts ever and I enjoyed them greatly and got to meet them beforehand. They seemed intelligent and they're music proved that they were talented and that night marked a milestone in my life and until the day I die, I'll have that memory and they're music will be a part of it. I'm grateful just for that. So if they broke up, its okay, because that means they're making themselves happy and I'll have this amazingly perfect moment. If they didn't, that's great, too.

Chris (Chris8301@aol.com): - Um.. yeah somebody just give me Paul's (yes, were on a first name basis) phone number and i'll give him a call and straighten this whole thing out. There are like one of my all time favorite bands. It's not like the end of the world but it does kinda tweak with your insides at the thought of no more black lab. I was so excited about the new album and wanted to get to see them live, i hope they work out whatever it is and keep on rockin. -Me
- Date: Thu Oct 26 03:47
Sharon (monkeypants@werewolf.co.uk): - HELLO!!!!!!!!!!
I'm really sadenned by te thought of blck lab being over. All the time with the derek thing i hoped it was vicious gossip, or stuff that could be wokred out. I only got t hear of them december last year when i got the buffy soundtrack for christmas, and it tool til september this year for my order of their album to come in, so it seems like a very shiort time . all the best in the future Michael and Paul. we're likely to still be here anyway, posting and moping about the good old days.*sigh*
- Date: Mon Oct 23 17:23
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Word has it that Black Lab is no more. We can look forward to Paul Durham solo stuff. Yay. This means that there will be no new album and definitely no tour. Until we hear otherwise, it's safe to assume that Black Lab is dead.

Raine (lilliput@i2k.com): - Oh by the way I just saw the Marv 3 at the orbit room in G.R. excellent show, no one I have ever seen has as much personality as Butch Walker, they were really good I suggest seeing them in concert. Also so they seem true to their fans Butch got off the stage and let the crowd sing with him.

jennifer (greeneyes27_1998@yahoo.com): - Hola ppl. I'm no genius or anything but maybe the guys should offer to do a few free shows to get their name and songs back in circulation to get more ppl interested. They can start with Phoenix. Hey, I'll even call the local radio stations here and see if they'll offer the guys a show here. I wonder if they ever thought of doing a spot on a talk show like Letterman or Jay Leno. That will get more ppl interested. Hope all goes well and I'll keep checking in to see what's new. Love ya guys.

So think before you post bud, and I'm going to have to agree with you on the 'big boys' thought, I'll leave it up to BL what they want to do... I just hope we get some news soon, and that it's not bad news. I burned all of the new songs onto a CD so I have 2 BL Cd's now! :-). That'll keep me busy listenin for awhile, their songs never get old. Keep hanging in their guys, if we stay here long enough I'm sure they'll announce something...
- Date: Mon Oct 16 15:55
Amanda (nedamanda@hotmail.com): - jon, I agree with you...I love Hey Album, but I'm on their street team so I figured that it wouldn't hurt to promote Ready Sex Go just a little. You have good taste in music!
- Date: Mon Oct 16 08:05
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I didn't like ReadySexGo as much as Hey Album! It just seemed way too shiny. A guitar solo or two would have been nice. (the guest solo on Radio Tokyo doesn't count) I do like a lot of the crunchy riffs, I just wish there was more to the album.

Black Lab are big boys, they can make their own decisions whether I agree with them or not. Anyone else that does not want to sign it had better check it out to see who else has been added to the list of names without their knowledge. PS that amounts to fraud.

I've had Your Body Above Me for a couple of years now and I've downloaded the BL b-sides, but i'm really eager for some new music. Not that the songs i have don't rock, every little thing they do is majgc, haha.

Thanks to Sharon as well, I am not alone... I have got a few others intrested as well, with suprisingly little effort as well... guess people just recognise good music when they hear it.

- Date: Sun Oct 1 21:06
PoderOmega (poderomega@home.com): - Well, that kind of a cryptic post from Michael. Maybe the band isn't broken up (as the rumors have been going) and they are still in talks... but still, it doesnt sound too good. Is it all about the record companies or what? I never hear anything good (or even neutral) about the major recording companies, its always bad. I understand they need to make money, but they have too much control! Please no comments like "BTE sucks!" but Elektra just dumped one of my fav bands from their label... and why? I know BTE didnt break any platnium records lately, but oh geez "At the Stars" only made it to #15 on the charts... guess its time to downsize them. I'm so frustrated with the whole music industry not to mention the whole MP3 RIAA stuff going on. Hi Amanda!
- Date: Fri Sep 29 05:44
Carlos (chameleoid@aol.com): - It's great to see that this board has never died down. Michael, thanks for the post! You know it means a lot to all of us to see that you're still alive and actually read the messages on here. I was starting to wonder if we were gonna have to wait 10 million years to hear from you again, lol. Just keep working on that new CD -- MyPlay and Napster may be like heroine for some of us ;), but a brand new CD from you guys would definetely make everyone's day! "My Turn On Top"! hahaha (you "real" BL fans out there -- from the mailing list -- know what i'm talking about)

ronnie (bluemonotone@yahoo): - is it just me or is it a stupid thing to be a black lab fan. i'm starting to think i'm not the only one who believes this. i only check this site every week to see if there are any updates, but never! and just because the band is in limbo does not mean that true fans should just wither away and stay in the dark. give a sign. what is truely going on? isn't it only fair, that after all these months of silence, we get some form of acknowledgement. from the looks of the board..."we" are still here. there may not be tons of us, but there are still some of us. so the question now, is for you; whomever "you" from black lab that answers... when will you break the silence here?

Anonymous Guy (ihave@no.name): - I uploaded Good Life. How's THAT for service?
- Date: Wed Aug 23 09:19
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I think Walk Back might be a misnamed Walk Slow. I've never heard of Wide Open Space. It sounds like a John Denver (RIP) song.

- Date: Tue Aug 22 20:38
******* (please@help.me): - Hi - Does anyone know if Black Lab has a song called "The Good Life"? I see there is someone named Scottdw77 on Napster that has a file named that. Everytime I try to download it from him, I get a "timed out" error. I was just thinking that maybe one of you would have better luck.
Plus, If this song doesnt exist, then I can stop trying to get it!

Renegard (onefoxydude@hotmail.com): - Hey, it's turning out into a good week, first my cat gets hit by a car and now I find out that black lab has broken up, great. Hey, while I'm in this mood let me list you a few songs that I didn't like; See The Sun, You Say, Pictures of People, Tell Me Why and I didn't like Circus Lights very much either. I liked Perfect Girl, I am Free, Rock Star, Tell Me What To Say, Horses, Play With Fire and I thought that Hole In The Sky was amazing but I really didn't have the stomach for lots of the new stuff, sorry boys and girls. If there were more tracks from the YBAM recording sessions I would kill for them, but as a YBAM addict I could only drown myself in a few of the new songs. Oh well, just another thing broken.
- Date: Sun Aug 20 14:08
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Craig, that's exactly how I feel. The band is so great, but yet no play on the radio. I like their new songs a lot also. Keep Myself Awake, Underground, and Horses are my favorites.
- Date: Sun Aug 20 02:09
Craig (nwa4ever@hotmail.com): - It pisses me off so bad that a band with so much talent musically and lyrically gets no play on radio stations (or at least not in Canada) and seems to being having their troubles with stupid record companies. I would really like to know the whole story about what's going down, so if someone wants to email me that would be much appreciated. I've got some of the bands new songs and they are good, but they are a lot 'happier' than Your Body Above Me. Tell me why is awsome. If anyone knows where I can buy the Live CD, let me know cause I need it bad. Thanks

Jerusalem Jackson (bknblk1@aol.com): - I've uploaded "I Am Free" and "Walk Slow" to the Myplay.com site. I took the pops and gaps out of them and balanced the right and left speaker balance on "I Am Free". They are labled (FIXED) after their titles. Let me know how they work. Also, if anyone has the play order on BL's LIVE CD I'd appreciate it if they would post it or email it to me.
- Date: Fri Aug 18 11:11
Scott Luttringer (srluttringer@ucdavis.edu): - Jerusalem: Yes, please post those fixed versions of I Am Free And Walk Slow on Myplay. Also, I have the Live CD, but I don't remember the track listing, since I am at the computer lab right now, and my CD is at home. If I remember correctly though, all of the discs had the same basic 8 tracks, and additional bonus songs were added to each disc, all of which seemed to vary from person to person. Somewhere on the official site there is info on ordering it. Or at least there used to be. Good luck!

Paul (paul@paul-pratt.com): - Hey, I was curious if anyone would like to assist me on what the meaning of Keep Myself Awake is all about. I know he is dreaming about this person, i'm going to assume a woman, inside this dream. They are telling him that he'll be ok, or they'll be ok, if he can stay awake. Is that like a crazy Nightmare on Elm Street Reference? I know it's not, but i thought it was funny. Anyway if anyone, or the band...maybe... would like to help me figure out what the meaning of this song is, i would greatly appreciate it. I don't come here that often so you can e-mail me at paul@paul-pratt.com. Thanks a bundle people. Oh yah, and just to add my two cents to the whole break up bit. From what i understand they were in contracts to make a deal with Epic records and one of them stabbed the band in the back and took the contract as a solo contract? Am i correct on this, i didn't have alot of time to read up. Anyway, if thats the truth, people piss me off, a great band making incredible music that gave me something when i needed it the most, kept me happy, made me remember moments in my life, helped me when i was down, gave me something to jam to, all that special stuff coming out of one band. That rarely happens for me and i'm really sorry to see them go. They gave me alot of good times, and were there for alot of memories. I wish them all the best of luck and i hope that things aren't to bad, but i'm not going to be selfish and say get back togethor just for my sake. I'm just going to say Thank you for the good times and the great music.

- Date: Fri Aug 18 00:36
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Im still...stunned. I can't believe the break up. I would pretty much do anything to get these guys back together. Their music is the best I've ever heard in my life. 'Underground' is simply amazing, it is so amazing that, that isn't even the word for it. Nothing can explain how great this music is, I may be going a little over board hehe, but I am almost angered that such a talented band never saw much radio. I believe 'Wash it Away' made it a little bit around the West Coast, but that's about it. They've got demos out that are better than 'Wash it Away.' No record label, what are these record labels thinking? I would be rushing to sign a deal with Black Lab, and get their stuff out there. Are these labels blind? Deaf? I don't know what it is, but they sure aren't smart, or Black Lab would already be big. I've put my two cents in, and I can only hope the best for Black Lab. Good luck guys.
- Date: Thu Aug 17 22:53
Neal Alcaraz (nealalcaraz@home.com): - So what's the story guys! I desperately need to here the new material. I've played your first cd so many times the things actually developed a groove. If you need help with mailings, letters to labels, whatever, let me know. You guys need to be on the radio, and often.
Thanks for generating such a superb tonic of tonal alchemy. Let me know when the new CD is out, I'm all over it.
ANY MAJOR LABELS OUT THERE? LISTEN UP!!!
- Date: Wed Aug 16 22:00
Jerusalem Jackson (bknblk1@aol.com): - Does anyone know what tracks and what their order was on the LIVE CD that Black Lab sold a while back? And if anyone knows how I could buy that CD from the band I'd really appreciate it if someone told me. Also, is "Walk Back" a Black Lab song or is that the same as "Walk Slow" but just mislabeled? One more thing, has anyone noticed some gaps or pops in "I am Free" and "Walk Slow" because I fixed the pops and the right to left speaker balance in several of the songs if ya'll want me to post them on the Myplay.com locker just let me know otherwise I won't.

jynx (pmknoff@hotmail.com): - I think that it would be worthwhile to post some e-mails concerning the subject -- at the very least, post some "quotes" from the e-mails that may add some enlightenment to the situation. Of Course, that is easy to fake also, but I think that we would trust whomever would do the posting. I don't know, if Paul would go solo, would they hire some studio musicians? I don't like that idea. A band has to be nurtured, that is what makes great bands great -- the chemistry. How long have Michael and Paul been together? Was their marriage the result of some record-exec's doing, or have they always been mates?

I've only heard a couple of good reviews on it, but have heard PLENTY of bad. Blues is good shtuff...I have a picture of myself with him from NAMM 1999 *grin*....but it isn't scanned. =)
- Date: Mon Aug 14 18:34
Simon (q9203354@topaz.cqu.edu.au): - Lisa, I notice you said your liked (older) Poison. Have you heard the album they released earlier in the year. It was called Crack A Smile. It was actually recorded in '96 but the record company never released it until Poison's tour became popular last year so they saw the financial potential of releasing with renewed popularity of the band. Well, my point is that it really is a brilliant album. It was recorded before CC was back in the band with a guy named Blues Sacreno. Brilliant album, great music, good voice and great sound. Check it out, it is actually worth it!
- Date: Mon Aug 14 16:14
Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - Walk Slow was originally an acoustic number from Durham (Paul's band before Black Lab). This is the perfect example of what Michael, Geoff, and Paul can do as a band.

Lisa (Bowiechaser@aol.com): - Simon...there's nothing wrong with CC, lol, I was just making an example..he isn't a virtuoso, but he gets the job done. I happen to LOVE (older) Poison, as well as most of the other bands of their genre. Also, I had said something about the credits going to Paul...it looks they he wrote all the songs if you look in the back of the cd booklet. It says "song by Paul Durham"...what I MEANT in the last post was that Michael had said *to me* quite a long time ago that he didn't like not getting any of the credit, because apparently Paul's not the only one who worked on the songs. Know what I mean now? The band got the shaft on the credits, while Paul got all the credit. Someone else made a point about the bassist of Eels being replaced and the sound going a totally different way...yup I admit that can happen. It doesn't *always* happen though. There was also a good point made about chemistry between the people in the band. I will grudgingly admit that I didn't think about that when I posted before. When a band just *clicks* it is awesome..otherwise it's just good. Anyhow...I'm bored with this for now.

Sherry C. (taz2000xs@yahoo.com): - It's been long time since I have posted on this board, and apparently a lot of things are going on. I hear rumors that Paul may be going solo and Michael is 86'd. I hope this is not the case since Michael has been an integral part of establishing this bands fan club base by consistently interacting with fans on this website and at shows. It would be nice to see a post from Michael or Paul regarding this subject. Michael..........if your our there...........can you tell us what is going on yet?????

Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I'm going to give an example. You guys can take whatever you want from it. About three years ago the bass player of a band called eels was unceremoniously removed from the band. The next two albums were drastically different. They lacked the hard edge that I bet the bass player added to the songs in the writing process. I wonder how crucial he was to that sound.

Lorena (lgyulai@hotmail.com): - Hey everyone...
So it's been a long time since I've been to the board, and when I do today, this
is what I see? Irrelevant speculations? Slandering comments? Sheer paranoia
quite possibly? To Derek: I don't know if you're telling the truth or not. I
won't believe anything, until I've heard it from the horse's mouth. In the
meantime, this is all hearsay to me. And if indeed this news you have so
carelessly shared is true, don't you think you should keep it to yourself? If
someone tells you something in confidence, why would you go around doing the
exact opposite of what you were told to do? It's common courtesy...and common
sense. Next time, think very hard about what you decide to post. How could you
not anticipate an uproar over something like this? I mean come on.
I suggest we all settle down with these harsh comments about Paul and Michael.
I am not going to sit here reading insults and one judgement after another. You
don't know what happened. Until we hear something concrete about this matter,
it's HEARSAY. So cool it down with the slandering.
This is just my take on things. If you disagree with what I've posted here,

Simon (q9203354@topaz.cqu.edu.au): - While on the Poison topic...has anyone heard Bret Michael's solo album which was the soundtrack to the film A Letter From Death Row? Typically sound lyrics with Bret's voice as good as ever. Frankly, the album sucked. The reason this is so, is the lack of chemistry of the studio musicians used. This highlighted to me the significant contribution the other band members of Poison obviously make to their albums. So those people that say their main reason for listening to BL is Paul's voice obviously don't realise the amount of work Michael does to in fact enhance his voice with melodies, riffs and whatever extra production he does. Another point to stir a totally different debate, someone called BL's songs Paul's??? Whose to say they aren't Michael's? If the music comes first, as written by Michael and Paul improvises lyrics on top of that music, who is to accredit ownership??? Basically, its a process that only the band can answer and personally, I find attributing ownership to the songs to an individual uncomfortable.

Lisa (Bowiechaser@aol.com): - Kane, you're right...he DOES do some awesome guitar work, but I have my own personal opinion on how he himself ACTS, so that kinda colors my views on the man. Different members add to the feel and groove of the music in every band, but MY main thing is what the voice does for me. WHen I first heard "wash it away", the words caught my ear first, not the music....it came next. Same with all the other bands I love (except classical where it is ONLY music, heh heh), Bowie, SKid Row, MAYFIELD FOUR (lol had to say it...and I'll give credit to Michael for turning me onto them, too), all my glam rock bands as well as my heavy metal stuff...the vocals caught my attention first. WHat can I say, I'm vocally driven, Kane!!! I AM gonna miss the combo of the guys, just because of the groove they all had. Maybe they'll all find something better.

Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - I disagree Lisa. Although Paul does have an amazing voice, would you give Time Ago a second listen if it wasn't for the powerful Ebow layering effect in the beginning and throughout the song? The texture in She Loves Me? The atmosphere in Ten Million Years? And the out of this world solo in X-Ray? Well, that there is all Michael and his tattoos transforming Paul's song into the opus and classics we all know and love. Lets not forgot Geoff's bass drilling in your head in songs like She Loves Me. Paul McCartney without John Lennon does not equal The Beatles, it equals Wings (exactly, who the hell is Wings some of you may ask). I wonder if Michael and Geoff are working on any projects together.

jynx (pmknoff@hotmail.com): - Okay, I have loved Black Lab's music since Your Body Above Me came out -- I have only visited this site once before...I am not at all excited about the bad news. I don't don't doubt this Derek guy - it makes sense seeing on the news page, there hasn't been one new entry from the band since April. Obviously, things are not good. Black Lab would have no problem finding a label as has been rumored. Any label that wouldn't pick up this band while continuing to sign bands such as Blink 182 (etc.) would be crazy. I agree, Paul has a great voice...and let's be truthful, we don't know the whole story, even some of you who claim to be in the 'Inner Circle'. Guitarists can be pricks sometimes...I should know, I play guitar for Zone IV! But so can singers...I should know, I used to sing for the Sexy Pigs...But guitarists who sing...they are the biggest pricks of all. I don't know what that means. www.zone4.f2s.com

Lisa (Bowiechaser@aol.com): - Annie...I'm great! Still with the bf, love him to bits. I just never check this board. My OPINION on the "breakup": More power to Paul for doing what his heart dictates. I'm pretty sure that is MICHAEL had been offered a solo deal, he probably would have taken it...although I do know he was rather frustrated about the credits on the first album all going to Paul. I'm sure that Geoff had his reasons too. Now my opinion ALSO happens to be that Michael can be a real big prick, so I can see WHY Paul would go w/o him...I love BL's music, but the main thing that always HAS, and always WILL keep me coming back for more musicwise, is the VOICE. I am vocally driven when it comes to choosing my music...I couldn't give a rip if the guitarist is as great as Stevie Ray Vaughn, or as bad as CC DeVille...as long as the music overall is good, and the singers voice moves me. I wish the best to all involved, regardless of where they go.

I don't mean to pick, but I guess BIG moughted Derek had to be the one. Starting petitions, just to cover your ass? Rrrright. Honestly. I think that what was going on with the band isn't really our business. I mean sure we as fans want to know what is going on with our favourite band that we love and support. But gossip gets started, and people start freaken!!!! grrrrrrr.... This is going to be crazy, but if it is true Paul screwed Michael over, and Paul goes on his own I still would support Paul, knowing what he did to Michael. Because Paul is the voice of bl that I listen to and I love to hear. But that doesn't mean what I think he did was right. I don't know the whole COMPLETE story, and I don't want to assume things, but I do know that Michael is a very good person and he has been crazy good to his fans.--- LISA!

unknown (guess@who): - Kristian, it sure would be nice if Derek was full of crap, making up such a ridiculous story, but he isn't. Many of us BL fans have heard from Michael over the last couple of months and he has told us the same story. I know for me anyway, he asked me to keep it to myself. I have the email he sent me. I refuse to post it or send it to anyone else. I was told in confidence, and I don't break that confidence. One of Michael's biggest quandries was how to break the news to the fans. He didn't know how to do it without it sounding like he was slinging mud at Paul. I have to respect Michael for that.

Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - There's a few other people that claim they heard it but were told to keep quiet about it. I really do hope I'm full of s h i t. I like the band just as much as anyone else here does. I don't feel that I should post the e-mail, because I've already done enough damage. If you read below, people have said they were told about it also. Like I said, I hope I am full of s h i t, I want another Black Lab album!
- Date: Thu Aug 10 22:15
kristian (kristian@wantree.com.au): - ok....so i haven't checked in for a bit and then i log in and find this Derek guy saying that Michael has told him personally that the band has split. First things first: Derek, you are full of s h i t. Michael is very quick at communicating any band news to the board and/or the mailing list. If something like this happened, he would have told us. And what the hell makes you think you're so special that Michael would tell you and nobody else. Stop wanking yourself Derek. We've been here a lot longer than you and Michael just is not that kind of guy. We're all here because a) Black Lab makes great music and b) they are nice people. The kind of activity you're accusing Michael of (being shifty, secrets etc) and Paul (that he would shaft his mate) is just a load of crap. Where is the proof that Michael said these things to you? Post the email he sent you if you dare. I don't believe you.

Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I LOVE Underground. ALL of the new material I heard is all great. If they put all of it on a CD and sold it, they'd probably make some money from it, it rocks so much. I have no idea what the situation is with the band, but whatever happens, they're music will always rock. Just the style of it and everything is so unique, it has a great sound to it. I LOVE IT. I have been a listener for about a year and a half, and just now started listening to all the newest material. Great job guys, this band is by far my favorite.

I support both Paul and Michael and wish them the best. I hope they don't split up but I feel both are gifted enough to succeed. Keep up the support all you Labbers out there. BLACK LAB 4-ever! By the way most of the newer songs are just as good as those on their studio disc so try to get them. I'm still searching for a good version of "Perfect Girls"

Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I'm sorry... I should not have said anything about the 'news.' Like I said, I was so frustrated that they were breaking up that I had to try to do something. I guess I'll just hope this petition does something at least. Michael's work IS great. I've heard his material from other bands also, even though I might not like some of the music that he's working with, you can tell he dedicates himself to his work. Without him, I don't think we'd be hearing those awesome guitar parts in black lab's songs. His guitar parts are very unique, and they sound great. I'm sorry if I broke news that some one didn't want me to tell everyone, but like I said, I didn't mean it in a cruel way. Good luck to you in the future Michael, and if what I hear about Paul is true, he is being very selfish. Cya Later- Derek

Reality (check@blacklabsite): - I used Nirvana, I could have used the Doors, or the Grateful Dead, or whoever you would like me to. The reasoning is that the bands will never be anymore. You are the one who said that they broke up, I did not. Making a petition will not bring anyone back together. Paul is the reason for the "break up." Well, he is going to still be heard if he has a solo record deal, right? Then why would he care about anyone's feelings but his own. He obviously didn't care for Michael's. It will not change a thing to let him know he has fans from black lab. Hey, he might even think that he already has a jump start because of that. You have good intentions, but don't waste your time. I will not sign it because I know there is no purpose for me. I feel sorry for Michael that anyone had to say this. He has put his heart and soul into his work, and now everyone knows about this situation. He would come around someday to tell us. You cannot say that if I was a fan I would sign it. I am a very dedicated fan. I always have been, since the first time I heard "Wash it Away" on the radio. I love black lab. Michael is the most caring, sweet person for all he has done for me. I will thank him until I cannot thank him anymore. I am sorry, but I feel like you were wrong for telling people the breaking news. Just go along with your petition, but I will not sign it.
- Date: Wed Aug 9 00:18
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - Ok man, first off you don't know if he took the deal, and also someone in Nirvana is dead. This is a totally different situation. It's worth a try, thats all im gonna say. And if you ever liked the band, you'd sign it too. It's worth the chance to me, since they've made some of the best music I've ever listened to. So if you don't wanna sign it, then don't. But don't pull everyone else down with you.
- Date: Tue Aug 8 23:15
reality (check@blacklabsite): - How would a petition change someones mind? Paul does not come to the website, does he? I have heard from him (not personally) 2 times online in the past two years. Over two years, actually. It was not anyones decision, except Paul's to take the contract if this is true information. Michael would not have control over this decision. I do not agree that Paul had a right to do that, but obviously he can if you say so. A petition will not help. How many times have you heard of bands breaking up? You know, while we are at it, why not make a petition for bringing Nirvana back together. When things are finished you need to step back. There is nothing anyone can do; it's far too difficult to mend broken pieces.

I got an email from Michael today, and thinks don't look to great for Black Lab. Black Lab had a deal worked out with Epic Records, but Michael said that Paul turned it into a solo deal for himself, and they aren't getting along too well. All I can do is wish for the best, and hope that they work this out and get that deal TOGETHER. This band is awesome, and if they can stick together, their time will come.

Get creative, I heard the new material, I find it hard to believe that no one is biting on it. If I had all the money in the world... And I see there have been no updates since April -- am I wrong to lose hope? As shallow as this might sound, "Don't give up/You have friends/Dont give up/You're not beaten yet. Speaking of 'Don't Give Up', has Peter Gabriel abandoned us also?

I have been listening to you for about a year and a half now, and your still my favorite band to date. Your new songs are some of your best material yet. Please keep us updated on how the record deal is going. You guys have the potential to get big, and if 'Your Body Above Me' was promoted as it should have been, you guys could have gotten big. You guys are a million times better than some big bands out there, and if you could only get a record deal and get your material on the radio, I know for a fact you'd get a great response from it. So please keep us updated, and I wish you the best-

Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I have absolutely NO idea why Underground doesn't work. I found it on Napster and I've been trying to upload it, but it still doesn't work. My ICQ# is 11346195 if anybody wants to try a transfer that way.
- Date: Sun Aug 6 01:16
clare in oz (ahhh@here.com): - ahh i still can't listen to underground i beg of someone to fix it i am about to go nuts : )
- Date: Sat Aug 5 17:57
Anonymous (black@lab.rules): - I uploaded Perfect Girl to www.myplay.com. It's the low quality version. If anybody finds a higher quality version, upload it please. I hope we get to see a new album soon. It's almost been 3 years since YBAM.
- Date: Sat Aug 5 12:55
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I went to the myplay locker and the version of Underground still "contained no data" (I'm using Netscape) Does anybody else get this error?
- Date: Thu Aug 3 09:50
rhets (yousay@tellmewhy.com): - Has anyone noticed that many of the songs are really right-speaker focused? I don't now if it was the incoding or if it was intended but Hole in the Sky, Rock Star and a few others are pretty quiet on the left stream.
- Date: Wed Aug 2 23:16
Kaupp (kaupp@hotmail.com): -
Okay, messed up titles. Take it Back (wrong title) = You Say (right title)
Play with me (wrong) = Play with Fire, Tell Me Why should be fixed now. Rhets post here if you upload Perfect Girl, else I'll upload my low-qual version.
- Date: Wed Aug 2 23:13
Kaupp (kaupp@hotmail.com): -
I didn't upload Tell me Why, but I knew it was wrong by the track time. I've no clue why Underground didn't work. I fixed all my song titles cause the guy I downloaded them from had them wrong, and I didn't know Play with me was Play with Fire, so I changed it. Thanks Rhets. I've the same version of Perfect girl, it's live and low quality. If I come across anything more I'll add it, but I think we've got pretty much everything. I keep most of my crap on napster, cause it downloads much smoother even with my #@%Y^(#*@% bad connection. Anyways, cheers Labbers.
- Date: Wed Aug 2 20:17
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - No kidding. There's at least a dozen songs floating around myplay that could easily make it onto an album and sell really well. But then there's the question of ownership. Would a label release songs it doesn't own?
- Date: Wed Aug 2 19:09
rhets (nevermind@hotelcalfornia.com): - Nevermind, I found underground and uploaded it, I'm not sure if that's the title or not. I can put up a low quality version of perfect girl if anyone wants.
- Date: Wed Aug 2 18:55
jordan (bonhamtj@mcmaster.ca): - Holy Crap.
Find a freakin label. Make your own, I don't care, just put out a new album
- Date: Wed Aug 2 18:42
rhets (yeah@hote.com): - Yeah, I just had to fix up the myplay site a little bit, Take it Back is just You Say but with the wrong title, Tell Me Why is Tell Me What To Say, which are two different Black Lab songs but Tell Me Why isn't on the site, Play With Me is called Play With Fire (according to what they said to joe at justthemusic.com) and Underground doesn't work. So if you could try to upload Underground again it would be great, and good job finding Play With Fire!
- Date: Wed Aug 2 03:01
clare (me@here.com): - okay sorry to be a complete sh*t but underground still won;t work! Can someone email me this song or put it on napster or some how fix it so i can listen all the songs there work except this one as this is the only one I am yet to hear and i would love to : )
- Date: Wed Aug 2 00:07
Simon (q9203354@topaz.cqu.edu.au): - First of all, I would like to thank Kara for opening her Black Lab Locker to all of us fans! I really appreciate it. Second, I would like to thank Kaupp for adding more songs to the library. I thank you both for your efforts. One thing, as a guess, I am wondering if Take It Back is actually You Say? Has anyone downloaded this? I only bring this up as it may save some of us a little time. Thanks again guys!
- Date: Tue Aug 1 22:24
Kaupp (kaupp@hotmail.com): -
Okay, I re-uploaded Underground. I'll upload Perfect Girl as well sometime in the near future, then the Myplay site will have pretty much every other song they've made in special, there's no point in uploading YBAM songs, since we should all have them already.
Micheal....you guys need to tour Canada, or at least the eastern US, so then I can catch concerts.
- Date: Tue Aug 1 05:49
clare (me@here.com): - okay i can't get underground to work can you reupload it or something it just won;t play the others do but that one won't thanks : )
- Date: Mon Jul 31 21:39
Kaupp (kaupp@hotmail.com): -
I uploaded Play With Me, and Underground to myplay.com. The names are what I've downloaded them off of napster as, and all the names are key lyrics from the song, so I assume that they were named appropriately. I'll upload other stuff that's missing when I get some more time.
- Date: Mon Jul 31 21:20
songs (by@blacklab): - Did you make up the names, then? I know all the songs that you are talking about including "Underground". However, I have never heard of the names that you are using. I was just curious if it was something other than what I already have. A release date is not set, as well as a record company. Or any news at that matter has not been released.

greenkara@hotmail.com and the password is newmusic
- Date: Mon Jul 31 17:08
Kaupp (kaupp@hotmail.com): -
Napster is NOT dead. They're still up and running, due to the judge granting them an extended operating time, while they apply for an injunction
on the recent ruling they got. So it's still up and running. Underground is a New (i think) Black Lab song, and it's quite amazing, but then all their songs are. Newer songs can be found out there, mostly made off of live recordings, or samples from somewhere. Like Tell me Why, Take it Back, Play With Me, Underground, Walk Back, See the Sun, Pictures of People, Perfect Girl, Rock Star and I am a DJ.
- Date: Mon Jul 31 08:20
Simon (napster@is.dead): - Didn't Napster take a temporary break from operations that may even turn out to be permanent? BTW, A Long Way Underground is where they bury lawyers... 'cause deep down they're nice people.

Kaupp (kaupp@hotmail.com): - If anyone ever checks out napster find me and add me to a hotlist if you want the full list of songs. I'm only missing "What Child Is This" and I've a tonne of new stuff, Pictures of People, See the Sun, Underground, Circus Lights etc. My user name is kaupp.

Amanda (nedamanda@hotmail.com): - You can find Black Lab on the following soundtracks; Can't Hardly Wait, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Permanent Midnight, and Varsity Blues. Do you mean "Circus Lights"? If so, you might try Napster or myplay.com to find some Mp3's. If I remember correctly, someone posted the login info for myplay.com not too long ago. Later! Amanda

Brandon (BGlass999@cs.com): - I saw the full version of see the sun on napster, but didn't have the oppurtunity to get it. Will it be added at myplay.com or should I keep trying napster?
- Date: Tue Jul 25 11:38
Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - Walk Slow was originally an acoustic number from the Durham Demos (from Paul's band before Black Lab). I don't think it'll ever be officially released.

Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - Well I'm here again, but as usual I've been away for long enough to miss out on all the low down. Anyway, I am leaving the for the U.S. Navy soon and I really don't want to be singing the wrong words to all my favs so if anyone can help me with some lyrics I would love you forever. I really want to get Circus lights right and See the Sun. If anyone has the heart to help a fellow fan with their info it would be ultimately appreciated. Thanx, Cameron

Vivian (im_a_twinkie@yahoo.com): - hey "me," are you sure there are a whole bunch of unreleased songs on myplay.com? i went there and i didn't see any. anything special i need to know to get them if the songs really are there?
- Date: Sat Jul 22 20:37
Simon (q9203354@topaz.cqu.edu.au): - Being an fan on mp3's myself, I understand why you would want more Black Lab songs (I have a few of them myself). However, I think it's rude to ask for them from the band. If you invested a little more time into attempting to find them on your own merit, you will discover that there is already a large collection of unreleased mp3's out there. Also, Black Lab fans are generally really cool about sharing their mp3 collections and are more than willing to help out those seeking. Instead of impressing on the band what they should be doing for you, why not ask yourself, what you can do for them. Besides, how are we all going to feel if a new album comes out and it contains all the songs we have had on mp3 for months? Don't get me wrong, I will still be purchasing it but it still wouldn't be the same as getting all new material. The band gives us what they want us to have and that's the way it should be.
- Date: Sat Jul 22 09:57
Senior Koflan (koflan@hotmail.com): - Alright, you guys no longer have a record deal, right?
So how about until the time you get one, you should post all of your old demos, songs, b-sides, and new tunes in mp3 on this site! It'd be great! C'mon, don't you want to please your fans?
By the way, the Your Body Above Me album is a heavy influence in my song writing. From when I sat down with tunes like Gates of the Country or X-Ray or Long Time Ago and tried to figure out the guitar or add lead lines or just play some accompanyment on my guitar, I was a changed punk.
Thanks!
Koflan

- Date: Tue Jul 18 19:53

- Date: Tue Jul 18 05:53

sahara (complicateit@hotmail.com): - It was the Red Devil Lounge in SF on 12/9/98. Go revisit the tour page to see their "happy holidays" greeting, with waving crutches and all. However, i don't know who opened for them, because i wasn't there. i was at a Depeche Mode show. So bittersweet...
- Date: Sun Jul 16 08:17
Handsome Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Maybe it was the Devil's Lounge or something? I remember hearing about an acoustic show being played there.
- Date: Sat Jul 15 12:55
gayle (gkatz@bu.edu): - i think it was a show in san francisco if i remember right.. so maybe it's a viper "something" in san fran...
- Date: Sat Jul 15 00:55
clare (me@so.com): - i don't know maybe it wasn't the viper room but i swear i read that they were discovered at teh viper lounge by a music laywer or something maybe i have the wrong band but what i know is that they were discovered at a concert with blacklab anyway that is what they said!
- Date: Fri Jul 14 23:52
Kane Tien (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - How can that be? I thought the Viper Room show this past April was Black Lab's first performance there. On stage, Paul even mentioned something like, "thank you for coming to our first appearance here at the Viper Room."
- Date: Fri Jul 14 21:09
clare in oz (me@somewhere.com): - i was listening to stroke 9 on justthemusic.com and they were talking about blacklab! Did you know that stroke 9 got their record deal at a show they did with blacklab at teh viper room. So there you go

Handsome Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - But fame and fortune are good things too. Definitely high on my list. (but you'd expect that from someone with a name as pretentious as Handsome Jon) Let Kissy brag all she wants. Then when/if she does become famous we can send her ambitious comments to the record label to be included in the liner notes of her album.
- Date: Tue Jul 11 02:25
kristian (kristian@wantree.com.au): - Hehehee...Bloody hell! What's this bollocks about the 12 year old? Man, you go offline for a little bit and then some fruit loop pops up. Hey Kissy.... I've forgotten more than you know you little turd! If you actually want to be heard as you so arrogantly think is your right, get off your ass and go and do something about it.... other than whinging. Go and record something, send it out to some record companies. Start your own web site, post MP3's. Do something! Geez. Just another wannabe star. Forget about being a star. Just play your music the way you want to play it. Forget about being famous. That ain't what it's about. It's a nice by product but if it's all you're aiming for then you're gonna be disappointed.

I saw them open for Creed, and they kicked some major tail! Got the crowd all pumped, and just nailed each song....when I went to check out their merch during intermission, they sold out of CDs at the booth I was at. Very, very cool guys, too. I got to do a pre-show interview with the singer, Chad, and he was one of the nicest musicians I've gotten to speak with. Totally put me at ease, we just chatted away. He knows his business, too...the whole band is right on top of the game, they know whats up with radio, whats going on behind the scenes, and all the nitty gritty about how to plug their cd themselves. Very very cool guys. I highly recommend checking out either their cd or show, should you get the chance. (Especially if they're opening for Creed...absolutely awesome show)

And about the resume, if you have a computer and word 2000 or whatever, I would use the spell checker. All that you have to worry about is the grammer. And fvck me for writing this. Why the hell does it matter if someone can't spell, why does matter that a innocent 12 yr old doesn't know how fvcked up this world is. You all should just take a chill pill and laugh it off.

As I know many of you from your posts, and its obvious that things change for everyone, and everyone seems to give their input, opinion on their matters, and sometimes people come for advice, as did i in the past. But WHAT THE HELL WAS UP WITH THAT 12 YEAR OLD?!?!?! I havent checked the board in a few days, and I'm seeing this sh it? "I don't take trash from nobody and let you get away with it." This baby is telling yall how it is, and is giving everyone grammar lessons. BUT REALLY SHE SHOULD CONCENTRATE MORE ON HERSELF. And if Miss 12 year old wants to dish it out, then she should be ready to get it back because she can say what she wants about me, but Yall know me a hell of a lot better than her, and I can stand up and say the same for you, and stick up for you as well. So if your reading this honey, you better be able to take what WE HAVE TO SAY TO YOU BEFORE YOU GO RUNNING YOUR MOUTH ON THIS BOARD.

I know how to spell, and I know what putting the cart before the horse is, aswell as the difference between 'here' and 'hear'. My argument was that this self labelled 12 year old is in fact older. Maybe the kid should proof read their initial post again. You seem to not know the correct usage of the aforementioned words in your earlier post...did you look them up in the dictionary before you replied? As for your reply, I guess you quite accurately illustrated your intellectual inferiority by not even comprehending the meaning of my post. Well done junior. Should have stayed in school shouldn't you.

And even if she was a fan why did she come in here and brag her ass off, and then when insulted go on about not letting anyone hurt her. Whatever, "Kissy" is just a TROLL if you ask me, trying to stir people up.

kristyne (kristyne@on.aibn.com): - Jonathan, I'm a little confused. I, too, am Canadian and know of Wide Mouth Mason but I'm missing the connection between them and Hanson. Can you explain?!? Thanks. :o)

the obvious truth (thenew@meanone.com): - The funniest thing about Kissy is that she just DOESN'T GET IT. She's so full of her "talented"-12-year-old-self that she won't even open up her eyes to look around her, to what she's actually saying. Her words and attitude are so pathetic that all the unfortunate Black Lab fans can do is to shake their heads in disgust. I think I'll go to the local temple now to pray for that either Kissy grows up, or shuts her overzealous mouth.
- Date: Wed Jul 5 19:56
Handsome (and I mean Handsome) Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Whoahwhoahwhoah!!! Nobody is to bash Hanson on this board anymore. As a band that writes their own stuff and is actually showing improvement, they should be proud of themselves. Now they just need to pull a Wide Mouth Mason (you'll know of them if you're Canadian) and pull away from the teenybopper crap and focus on making real music. ... I have heard of Sammie. Don't really care about him. I'm much more interested in Sammy Sosa and where he'll be traded.

Kissy Salters (kiswanasalters@yahoo.com): - I sent an e-mail yesterday. I looked on the website today, and somebody named Simon has a problem with me. Let me catch you up on the 411. First of all, Sammy Hagar, or whatever his name is, has been around for years like you said. If you you were thinking, the R&B singer Sammie from Miami, Florida hasn't been around for years. He's only 12 years old. So he couldn't have been around for years. And babydoll, it ain't my fault you can't spell punctuation. I think you need to touch up on your spelling. Because whenever you get a job or go for an interview, they gonn a ask you all sort of questions. Then comes the resume'. You definitely won't get the job and can't spell. And yes I do know the difference between 'here' and 'hear'. Here is a certain place. I might put that in a sentence for you."You can meet here at Mrs. Porter's house". Hear is a sound that is made, and the muscles in ear work together so you can HEAR the sound. Just to let you know, don't mess with people if don't know who you're dealing with. Especially me. I don't take trash from nobody and let you get away with it. I know you don't know me, and sure don't know you, but I do know from you nasty comment, that you got a little too much mouth. And if you want to know what putting the cart before the horse is, obviously, if you were thinking, you would have known that it means getting ahead of yourself. Do I need to put that in simpler terms for you?
- Date: Tue Jul 4 22:13
Simon (q9203354@topaz.cqu.edu.au): - How many 12 year olds know what 'putting the cart in front of the horse is'? How many 12 year olds know how to spell 'punctuation' yet don't know the difference between 'here' and 'hear'? One other thing...Sammie who??? Sammy Hagar? He's been round for years!!!???

Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - I just got done reading the latest and well I'm not sure if I am more afraid of what kind of ideas this kid has or what his mother is telling him. I mean honestly if he was some "new kid on the block" or maybe the fourth "Hanson Boy" then I might have heard just a little something about him or her I guess. I know that as a vocalist I have the same passion and drive for my goals, dreams, or whatever, but it just seems that someone new to the page is a little too worried about what other artists are doing and how they got there then striving for themselves to make it in the business. Just some thoughts. Cameron

the obvious truth (thenew@meanone.com): - what the heck was that? and why is that here? does that kid "knowknow" where he/she is? Maybe he or she shouldn't mean "every single word, letter and punctuation" because there are a lot of mispellings, typos, and wretched grammar. i would say i admire his/her enthusiasm and vigor, but i don't. It's just annoying. Sorry if i sound like i'm ripping on the poor child, but this page just seems to be a very odd and inappropriate place to step on the old soap-box and sound off about those particular items.

Kiswana Salters (kiswanasalters@yahoo.com): - I'm 12 years old. I love to sing. And from peoles opinion they seem to think I can sing. I thikn there is a lot of talent out in the world. Stars travel places and meet new faces. But for some reason you never here a lot of stars in South Carolina. Especially in my town. I live in Florence. We have to travel hours and miles to go somewhere an d see stars sing. Another thing the beginner Sammie, he just started. I know he doesn't write those lyrics on his own. Let me tell you what, I write my own lyrics. My friends as well as my other peers seem to like my lyrics. I have a heart for music. I think my voice should be heard. My mother made two recordings when she was young, and she has been forgotten about. And to Dallas Austin, Sammie's producer, what are you going to do if Sammie's voice change. If you were as smart as a producer a people see you to be, you most likey would have thought of the possibilities that might happen. It's really hard to sit back and watch somebody make millions and do't even know the first thing about what it takes get fame. Better yet a contract. Sometimes we put the cart before the horse. We definitely need to think twice about some of the things we do. But I do feel that I should be heard. I know there are some teens out there that feel the same way. But just to let you knowknow I MEANT EVERY SINGLE WORD, LETTER, AND PUNCTUATION!!! When it come to me, I'm very firm on my word, and I don't play jokes when it comes to being serious. YA HEARD!!!!

gayle (gkatz@bu.edu): - I'd like everyone who reads this to take a moment next time you're at a show to think about how you act. Yesterday, 8 people were killed at the Roksklide Festival in Denmark during a Pearl Jam set. 1000s of people were trying to push towards the stage. The end result: 8 lives lost, several dozen injured, and 5 traumatized band members in one of the most influential bands ever with the chance that they very possibly may never play live again. So please, next time you go to shove someone so you can be 6 inches closer to the stage, think before you act.

Handsome Jon (from Toronto) (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I think that the success of Canadian bands in Canada is also because of a little thing called touring. Bands like 54-40, The Tragically Hip, I Mother Earth, Moist and The Tea Party tour almost exclusively in Canada. In fact, three of 54-40's last four albums have been Canada-exclusive. Other bands like Our Lady Peace and Finger Eleven make frequent trips to the US and are enjoying more success down south. The success of Sarah McLachlan and Barenaked Ladies comes from years and years of touring. The CRTC's goal is to counteract the game of "follow the leader" that Canada seems to be playing behind the US. I mean, how else would junk like Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock make it up here?
- Date: Mon Jun 26 12:44
Renegard (onefoxydude@hotmail.com): - One thing about selling a lot of albums in Canada if you're Canadian. Up here there is an organisation called the CRCT () and they have imposed a rule on all Canadian broadcasters, Television and Radio that 30% (I think they might have raised it again) of their content must be Canadian content. Because of this, bands that might not have received radio airplay otherwise get tons of airplay and exposure up here in Canada and bands like Pluto, See Spot Run, Nickleback, Our Lady Peace and dare I say it, The Tragically Hip get played on the radio a lot more than they would on American radio and become much more popular in Canada then they would anywhere else where their songs might not be played as much. I'm not putting down these bands, there are many great bands from Canada but sometimes it's easier to get really big in Canada without going anywhere else in the world. The Canadian radio stations fill their 30% with hits from bands like 54-40 and the Hip who have had long and great careers filled with tons of hit songs in Canada. Just look at the sales of these bands in Canada and the states, Clumsy by Our Lady Peace went gold in the states, very respectable, but in Canada it went 8 times platinum and became the best-selling album of 1997 in Canada. The Hip's first 6 albums have all gone over 6 times platinum in Canada, compare that to the states. They might have had less luck in the marketing department in the states but enough for Road Apples to go diamond in Canada and sell only a couple thousand in the states? All I wanted to say was Canadian success is different than American success.

Lisa (bowiechaser@aol.com): - Clare, Black Lab played once with The Cure in San Jose, CA, and toured around several cities with Fuel & The Mayfield Four (I think that name may ring a bell for several of you). For whomever said that BL should or could re-release their cd...after talking with Chad from Nickelback (this does have a point), I think they could have done a better job promoting their own material. The aforementioned Chad and his band are from Canada, and they promoted their cd before they were even signed SO WELL that they sold a pile of them up in Canada, and then a pile of labels came begging to sign them. They signed with Roadrunner, but they are HEAVILY involved in what's going on with their promotions, people getting interviews with them and photo passes if needed, and what radio charts their single is on, and what they need to do to KEEP it on. I think that the fella's in BL need to take a lesson from Nickelback on how to do that, as well as some other stuff. Nothing like having a *moody* band member on your hands to make you talk smack, even if you love the music.

Handsome Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - I know that giving YBAM a second run sounds like a great idea, but Black Lab already has some awesome songs recorded. The costs required to re-release YBAM would almost equal the costs of releasing a new album if I am not mistaken. I'm sure that a new album's sales would exceed any future sales of YBAM.

Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - Speaking of Seattle, MTV is showing reruns on the Real World Seattle season. On the episode in which they are auditioning to be DJ's for the radio station, Nathan did a promo on Black Lab in his audition tape. He mentions something like, "Paul Durham is a seeker...he mows lawns since the 4th grade...". Also, on the last episode, when everyone is packing, they played Time Ago in the background. I guess Seattle loves Black Lab, but Los Angeles loves them more =).
- Date: Fri Jun 23 16:30
Derek (wowf4life@hotmail.com): - I would be all over them. I dont think Geffen promoted Black Labst found out about them late last year and I can say that every single song on 'My body above me' is great. I went on a trip last week and I must have listened to the full album 4 times. If I was in charge of any type of record business, I would be all over them. I dont think Geffen promoted Black Labs talent enough. Black Lab is a lot more talented than some of these bands that have made it big, it's a shame. If Black Lab signed a new record deal and got great promotion, (even though this sounds crazy) I would think about re-releasing the album. It's got at least 2 or 3 hits on it that could make them big on the radio, but Black Lab was never given a chance. Even though it probably wont happen, I would just be pissed if I were them, because that album has some great stuff on it that people need to hear. Hey Black Lab, I wish you the best in your future.

I think that the song is by far the greatest and has made me cry about fifty million times. And, Paul, if you read this, Circus Lights is the greatest song.! And if you guys tour anytime soon, New Orleans would be a real good place to go. I have been a fan for 2 or 3 years now... how ever long YBAM has been out. My favorite band was Smashing Pumpkins for 5 years, but now after 2 awful albums have come out, you guys have far surpassed them. Keep up the good work and send the fans something as soon as you can. Love always.

I'm sure this comes from the fact that I am comparatively new to the rest of you and I haven't been a big fan for a long time to realize that this post page is more like a forum and I am just fresh meat so to speak.

- Date: Wed Jun 14 07:54
kristian (bringitonyagreatbighonkey@rightnow.com.au): - Cameron, methinks you a tad rude to be going questioning the loyalty of the fans who regularly come and post here. The fact that we are regulars shows, to my way of thinking, quite a tremendous amount of loyalty. As for the current affairs topics, what else is there to say? You can only say "I love BL" a million times and then it starts to get old. Of course we love BL but in the meantime, while they're hard at work recording etc for the masses, we can all keep ourselves amused by coming here and leaving messages for other BL fans. Most of whom have a history of friendship, arguments and smart assed comments! This is a forum for BL fans and I feel it is being used more than appropriately. I think if the guys had a problem with it then they'd delete all the non BL stuff. The fact that it survives indicates to me that it doesn't really bother them. You need to take a chill pill Mr Gillins. This amiable banter that you object to so does more for BL supporters than comments like yours. Maybe just relax, eh?
- Date: Wed Jun 14 05:36
Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - Is anyone else worried about this sector of this site or am I the only one? I really love the music Black Lab puts out. I am an aspiring musician/vocalist and to have this kind of link to such a great band directly is such an awesome claim for me to recover. I really wish this same attitude was portrayed by the rest of us slightly restless fans. It seems that the fact that Black Lab is taking the time they need to release another album with whatever the obstacles they may have to face is causing a lot of the reporters here stray from what this site is and what purpose it is shown to serve. I love the directness of this site right to Black Lab, but has it ever occured that if anyone of you were in a band like this that you yourself would stop signing on here because your fans leave rediculous messeges about current events on here instead of something legitimate about the band itself or their music. I am kind of saddened by lack of endurance and support that the fans have. Keep the tunes pumpin BL and I patiently await your return the air waves. Many thanks, and best wishes.

If you're not happy without it then you're never gonna be happy with it. Temporarily maybe but what good s it when you're restless inside? What then? Or when you're hurting? Money might ease it, and yes, I'd love 17 million dollars but I would not earn it by sleeping with someone. As far as I'm concerned, my wife is the only one who gets *those* goods!

I'm 21 and in college and allot of my female friends love her and N'Sync, and they are as old and older than me! But, in my opinion, compared to bands like Black Lab, Britney and the boy bands are untallented pretty faces singing lyrics they didn't write to music on instruments they don't know how to play. How would Black Lab sound doing a cover of a boy band song? Heh. They'd have to buy a drum machine though, and Paul would have to get breast implants

Whenever and wherever it is - I will be there. I need some mellow music, lol, I've been at all hardcore and heavy shows recently, with the exception of Our Lady Peace. Seems like all there is in the local scene here in MA right now is screaming hardcore music, which isn't a bad thing for the most part, but I want to go to a concert where I don't get killed for once...

Jaime (SuicideBlonde_@webtv.net): -
Hey...this list strikes me as mostly a much younger generation (i.e. Britney Spears talk amongst a band like Black Lab?), but I thought I would throw out a couple suggestions on some bands I have come to admire and music that I cherish. Everyone can stand to have their musical horizons broadened and repaved.
Red House Painters is also from Cali....extremely talented. Different style from Black Lab, but those emotional lyrics and lines that just grab your heart are there. Also, Cool for August (after some slight regrouping) - they toured a while back opening for Matchbox20 and kind of an emotional rock type sound going...I caught their first live show in a very long here in Atlanta a couple weeks ago and they are sounding better than ever. Watch for a new album!
Also...wanted to check with everyone about any Black Lab posters, stickers, etc. available for sale or trade? And Michael - What about the live cd or video?

Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - Black Lab, I just want to say how awesome you are. I just recently got a hold of a few new tunes and I must say that they are choice. I haven't been a huge fan of christmas music, however I just got a hold of What Child is this and it is excellent. Also I Am Free is just as I can expect from you guys and it is just great. I think that you can you could put out a song with blah blah blah for lyrics and it would be better than most of the music I know because you all as a band carry a certain aura and style that can't be imitated well enough to do you any kind of justice so here I am again professing my undying thanks and appreciation for your works. Take care and keep up the great work.

Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - The Pumpkins are no more. It's all up to Black Lab to save us from the lipsincing Britney Spears of the world!

Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - Well it's been a while since I've contributed to this sector of the site but I am just confused about something. I just want to know how the comment portion to the website of one of if not THE GREATEST bands in my life could possibly stray from meaningful parallels and inspirations to f$#@%ing britney spears. I am willing to give credit to talent any day of the week but you will never see me giving anyone else but an amazing group of musicians like black lab credit on this site, because, well frankly I think it's just one of the dumbest, juvenile, and immature things I've seen while spending time here. If I'm alone so be it, but I'd like to know who feels the same. Guys get me some new music I know you're working hard, but I'll tell you if a certain net party of music exchange goes under which will remain nameless,(napster) then I'm stuck feeling without. Either way you are my alltime favorite and I have so many inspired feelings and I need to give credit where credit is due so salutes to you all and many thanks for going for a passion and a dream. You've helped me and so I thank you.

Kathryn (i rule) (krudrin@yahoo.co.uk): - Okay, am I like, the ONLY english fan here? I mean I've been trying to increase awareness of the 'gods amongst men' over here, but it's a little hard when the album ain't here. Any future releases over here? I doubt it, but it's worth asking.... :)

The show airs at 11:35pm EST/PST -- that's who bryan is with now.. someone had pointed out that he was on conan last week, but it was after the show was on, so i just thought i'd mention this... on a more related note: i'm in need of new lab darnit! =)

PoderOmega (poderomega@home.com): - Ah, Britney Spears. On an MTV interview she said that talent and effort got her to where she is today. I'm sure it has nothing to do with physical apperance. She could be 50 poungs heavier with acne and be just as popular, right?

PoderOmega (poderomega@home.com): - I would like to know how Black Lab feels about MP3. I have almsot every Black Lab song released, but the CDs I actually bought were YBAM, Black Lab live, and the Varsity Blues soundtrack. Allot of the songs I've downloaded can't be found on any CDs but I downloaded songs that could only be found on BL singles and soundtracks. Is this actually hurting black lab?? If they had a new album out I'd BUY it right away!

maya (mya@writeme.com): - It's been a while since I wrote. I don't know if this would be appropriate to write but last night I was flippin channels on TV and whadayaknow? It's BL's old drummer Bryan on Conan O'Brien Show. I forgot the name of the band Sherby Lynn or something... anyways I watched for a little bit, and Paul was right! Blacklab sounds a lot better, and besided it's not my type of music. No offense to their fans. All for now!

Sharon Doherty (monkeypants@werewolf.co.uk): - Well, i reckon I'm the only Scottish fan! Oh, and i'm also really mad cuz i ordered my black lab album two frickin months ago and it's still not here! on the upside, i found the "can't hardly wait" soundtrack! Cool film, cool soundrack! I love "tell me what to say".
Peace out!

John B. (SurlyOne@aol.com): - OK, so I was at my company's Xmas party last December (as if the month needed explaining, sorry...) and we had a karaoke service there. I personally did not get up and sing, but I thumbed through the book of songs to sing along to. Amidst tons of schlock from boy bands, has-beens and treacly "professionals" was one shining piece of glory: "Time Ago"! I didn't even consider singing it, as the original is too magnificent to mess with. An interesting tidbit, though.

Renegard (onefoxydude@hotmail.com): - Hey are any of you guys/girls going crazy trying to find as many black lab songs as you can in MP3? Well I am, and I can't get enough. I have found 16 non-album tracks already, it cannot be stopped. Does anybody else have any tracks in MP3 that they would want to exchange for mine, just e-mail me if you're interested. Even the tracks that were throw-aways from the first album are great, new stuff is awesome. But if there were official recordings I would go out and buy them right away, you can only listen to these less-than-full quality songs for so long.
- Date: Sat May 6 15:44

Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - I think that it's great that micheal gets the credit that he deserves on this site because without the responses he gives it wouldn't be as important to the fans as it is, but don't forget who fronts Black Lab and who voices their inspirations. I know that isn't as relevent on this site but this site is a black lab site and I think that Paul is an amazing musician because he made a specific style of music and singing his own and is doing so well with it and yes I personally wish that Paul was as in tune with this site as micheal is but whose to say that paul isn't out making things work for Black Lab and Micheal is doing everything for the fans. I just think that being the front man for such an inspirational band would put such a desire into Paul that he just maybe out making contract deals to better Black labs situation and Micheal is doing his part here. I just think it's important to consider everything and not to sell Paul short before everyone has the facts. I apologize if I offended anybody. Take care and keep playin that BL loud. Cameron
- Date: Wed May 3 23:03
Poder Omega (poderalpha@worldnet.att.net): - I wasn't telling Michael good work on the band, just on the website! I don't see Paul on posting messages here and responding to emails, which is fine! But I think Mike gets extra-props for his work here!
- Date: Tue May 2 22:52
Dan (amergin@nji.com): - Note to Record Label:
Please get these guys in the studio and get an album out ASAP.
Please save us from the billion and one Korn rip-offs I can't evade on the airwaves.
I thank you for your cooperation in this matter. ;)

Amanda (nedamanda@hotmail.com): - Oh, I'm sorry...I didn't forget about Paul on purpose. Thanks Paul! I think your a wonderful person too!!! I owe you now..is there any way I can make it up to you? Well, thanks to the person who pointed that out, I would have felt really bad if I didn't add his name. Later. Amanda
- Date: Tue May 2 20:09
To Amanda (nothing@nothing.blacklab): - What about Paul? Thanks to Michael, new band members, fans, AND Paul.
- Date: Tue May 2 15:21
Amanda (nedamanda@hotmail.com): - Hey everyone, I just had to say that I agree w/Poder Omega...I think it is great that Michael is so involved with this site..and about the personal email responses, You are "THE GREATEST!" that takes a lot of time to do and I know you haven't had much time lately. So, Thanks, to Michael, the new band members ,and all the fans for being such wonderful people! Take Care, Amanda.
- Date: Sun Apr 30 22:16
PoderOmega (poderalpha@worldnet.att.net): - I'd just like to say how great it is how involved Michael is with this site. And just that he personally responds to all the email he gets is something that I dont think you can find in most bands of this calibur! So good job to Mike and the webmaster and the rest of black lab!

Shannette (sbudh662@stjohns.edu): - I can whole-heartedly say that buying Black Lab's CD is the best investment I ever made in a CD. Never before have I heard so many good songs on one album. Black Lab didn't go wrong on ONE song. They were all fantastic. I've listened to the CD over and over and I still get a thrill everytime. Phenomenal.
- Date: Thu Apr 27 22:45
Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - @#%@! I can't get "See The Sun" out of my head. At the office, on the bus, in my sleep... If the new label wants a hit, they don't have to worry.

Ellie Lawrence (once_daily@postmaster.co.uk): - Hello All:
Now... I'm not one to be struck with that horrid reserved-for-the-Backstreet-Boys starlust rubbish, but I was very pleasantly surprised this afternoon! After sending an email to Black Lab wondering about their feelings on my covering "Time Ago" when I play live, I actually received a personalised response! My day was made! This only strengthened my opinion that Black Lab is quite possibly one of the best American bands in existence (and of course, my opinion is infallible [I'm stubborn and British]). Anyhow, if anyone's interested in hearing "Time Ago" being performed with just piano, bass, drums, and a female vocalist, come on over to Minneapolis, MN (my current residence other than Brighton, England) and check us out...
cheers,
Ellie

Simon (q9203354@topaz.cqu.edu.au): - Well to be honest...I am having one of those moments where I get introspective as a result of varying reasons. The relevence to Black Lab is this. All I have to say is thank you for the music!!!! The tunes bring enjoyment into my life! Coupled with that, the lyrics bring a certain meaning or enlightenment into my life as well. I love both of those aspects and that is the reason why I wanted to say thank you to Black Lab for being the band that you were and more importantly the band that you are right now! Looking forward to following the progress and development of the band that I love and at the same time, wishing you all the best!!!! ROCK ON MUTHA FUGGERS!!!!!
- Date: Wed Apr 26 19:33
Chris (DrClaw28@hotmail.com): - Just wanted to say that Black Lab is one of my favorite bands! I love your first cd and I am eagerly awaiting a new release from you guys. Just out of curiosity, is there any chance of you making a stop near Pittsburgh, PA for some shows? I would most definitely be there!

kristyne (kristyne@on.aibn.com): - Hey all... was watching some of the Toronto/Ottawa hockey play-off game tonight and interestingly enough, when the Sens were a goal down, they played a clip of "Wash it Away"... the "send me an angel" part! I thought it was kind of cool!! Guess it didn't help though... the Sens still lost! :o(

Amanda (nedamanda@hotmail.com): - Hey Everyone, Is it just me or is the live chat thing starting out kind of slow? Hopefully more people will join in. Well, I'm glad to to hear about the record deal(label), Congratulations! You guys are great..I don't know why it took so long but that's okay because I know it's going to be worth waiting for. Oh, Cameron..you should be receiving something from me next week..you know what it is. Talk to you later. Hi Michael! Later, Amanda

Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - Hey Black Lab,
I was at the web page before you changed the site and I thought that before I could get the tabs for some songs and I can't seem to find them now. If I'm lame and just can't find them then spell it out for me or if you have taken them out, can you please send me tabs to Gates of her country, Wash it away, and, Hole in the sky. I would really appreciate it. And when your new album comes out hopefully you'll think about putting the tabs back on the site, maybe just a few. Thanks a ton and keep rockin out. Cam
- Date: Thu Apr 20 00:46
jon luini (falcon@chime.com): - Ok, as Michael mentioned, there are now some audio clips of the new
songs up (click on "Music"). I've also added a basic web chat system
which Michael wanted to add in. Over time it may migrate into a more
full-featured java version. See the link at the top of this page to access it. I
also reformatted the "On The Road" page a little bit to make it more
obvious what is available. It was sort of fun going back and watching all of
the clips from the past couple years (I also fixed a link or two which had
broken over time).

Poder Omega (poderalpha@worldnet.att.net): - Every time I hear Time Ago (and I hear it usually once a day, I've put it on so many of my mix CDs!) it makes me think back to my high school girlfriend. Even though I didn't even hear Time Ago until over a year after high school and the relationship was over, it still makes me think of those times.

I was wondering if there were any new songs that describe the way i am feeling now. I'm not looking for attention,but just feeling like real crap lately about what has been going on in my life. I found out the other day that my baby might have Down Syndrome which sent a lot of thoughts spiraling in my mind. I will love this baby no matter what. Anyhow, gotta go. Take care and can't wait to see u guys again,whenever that may be, i will be patient.

Please let me know if any of you have, or know of someone who does, that would be willing to send me some of the files. Specific songs that would be great are.... You Say, Perfect Girls, See the Sun, Tell Me Why, Picture of People, Circus Lights, and James. I have not be able to find any of those but have most the rest. Thanks for your time! BL rules!

Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - Hey BLACK LAB,
Well I have been a really big fan for a while. I saw you at slims and that was awesome. One of the big reasons I love your music is the lyrics and I noticed that you posted some new lyrics on the site and I was wondering if you were going to post some of the new stuff when it came out if you could do me a favor and send me a copy of the the lyrics to "You Say". I would really appreciate it because when I heard that at the show I couldn't believe how in sync I was with that and how much it applies to me now so I would really appreciate it if I could get a copy of that. Thanks for everything and keep up the amazing work. CAM IN AZ

ANNIE aka lalala (zoso16@hotmail.com): - Hey everyone,
I haven't really posted in a while. At least none of my stories. I have a new one so I figured I'd letcha know how things are going here. I made some new friends this year. One of which I used to go to preschool and kindergarten with and never knew until a few weeks ago. Anyways we were at school one night after a play sitting around and we wanted to have some fun. So we decided to have a game.. of Kleptomaniac/Scavenger Hunt! Girls vs. Boys... So the guys have been stealing things from the school left and right. Dumb things. I took a couple door knobs and light plates and stupid things, my teacher let me borrow his old grade book so everyone thought I ripped that off and I became the star of the team. Weeks went by and the game kinda ended. Until one kids mom found all his lute in his closet, took it to the school, and he is waiting to possibly be expelled unless he confesses who was on the girls team. The other 2 guys on his team are suspended and there is a hearing coming up soon for them.. So this morning I returned the grade book and last night I returned all the door knobs from where I took them and let the teacher know who gave me the book.. So then the guys never told on us and arent going to, but we confessed to the administration and said we never stole anything... So its alllllll gooood I think.... I know this is stupid, but I thought I'd share.. enough w/ my pranks, all I do is pull pranks and goof off and that time it went too far. Last week we threw cheese cake on my X bf's truck....

One thing that I'm sure of is that BL fans are the best...The band is really great too, they are one of the only bands that I've known of that doesn't mind hangin' out with fans at their shows. AZ has some really cool BL fans doesn't it. Hey everyone! you guys are awesome!!!Michael, thanks again for helping my friend...I don't what I would have done without you. Talk to you later! Amanda

zero (zero@glennquinn.com): - I fell in love with "Keep Myself Awake" on the Buffy soundtrack, so I had to pick up Your Body Above Me... now I can say that I'm a bonafide addict. I can't wait for another album from you guys. I'd beg for you to play some gigs here in Utah, but I'm not cruel enough to ask anyone to come here voluntarily. ;-) Thanks for the great tunes!

Dawn (realrockmag91@aol.com): - Lisa was quite accurate. The show was good.....I wish it could have been longer though. Maybe Michael will allow me to interveiw the band for the mgaazine somtime sooon

Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - Reading Lisa's setlist, I noticed that they didn't play Circus Lights, that song is a hit! May I request that song at the Viper Room gig?

mya (mya@writeme.com): - I've got the black lab moody blues... :( wish I can see you guys sing more often. What's going on after the gig @ The Viper Room? Anyone? Can't wait to see them again. I would like to point out that Paul's voice is so SEXY! :)
I've been playing these two songs lately, "You Say" & "See the Sun" I think these two are going to be a hit when the songs are released. (or have they already been released?)If not, who cares? I still love the Black Lab... hehehe so they can all kiss my ass!

Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - Well, I don't know about some of the regulars that have been to BL's other shows but I could not believe the show that went on at Slim's. The openers were ok for starters, Orixia did it all for me because they had sooo much energy and didn't stop, the other two bands(a man called sun and TVEye) were pretty cool but you could see much room for improvement, typical for new bands. I just want to say that I love listening to BL because the lyrics and tones and style just give me a whole new outlook on the way life can be and I gain some new perspectives, but being in their with them was like a new world. I flew from az to see them and spent all my money trying to see them and make it back home, I would do it 20 times over just to see them again. I think it's totally cool how it was no big deal to hang out after the show and just talk like friends so that was awesome. And if Micheal or Paul ever spend much time reding this then I just want to elaborate on how much of a difference I see you now and I love your music that much more. Your live stuff from seatle(the pit) is soo good it just gives me so much motivation to keep up with my own interests in music and playing. THANK YOU so much and we'll see you in pheonix when the new album tour hits the road.

Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - Wow, it felt like I was reading a short story from school. Lisa, you have way too much time on your hands...but I love it! Just wish you would throw in some more details, especially on Michael's gear. =) Anyone going to the the show at the Viper Room in LA?
- Date: Fri Mar 24 19:20
Lisa Weber (bowiechaser@aol.com): - The show was pretty good...either I wasn't pimped up, or they had a different groove going, because it just didn't have that "vibe" I recalled. I liked some of the new stuff, wasn't really into a couple of the songs Paul did in a real high tone...eh. Michael....was Michael. Same way he has always been, but he does a good job on the guitar...Paul was really nice though, took off his orange hat to take a pic with me and a friend. Chatted with us for a bit, was very friendly overall. I remember why I always liked him, and he looked pretty cute, too. Kane, I know you're reading this...I took a couple of pics of Mike's gear for you, and got some good shots of his midsection just to get the guitar details for you. That special white one was there, bud....and a green one, and a reddish one. I'm sure you know what I mean. The new bassist is cool, I've seen him a TON of times with Linda Perry of 4 Non Blondes....so I have a bazillion pics of him already. The new drummer's cute, didn't talk to him at all, so I don't know what he is like. Here's the set list for everyone.
See the Sun, Sleeps With Angels, Perfect Girl, Tell Me Why (not my fav.), Keep the Rain, You Say (makes me think of Winger, lol), Wide Open Spaces, Wash It Away, X-Ray, and for the encore they did Time Ago, and some song called TV Eye....wherein the singer for TV EYE flipped out and was being the psycho drunk fan, and pushing a couple of us in the front row.....drunk and stupid. Yes, I arrived late, got there at about 10:30 so I could skip the openers, but I *can* say that the opener "Orixa" (pronounced Oreesha) was pretty d amn good...but they're a San Jose band, not some random Portland band. I always expect SJ bands to be decent, considering that's where I am from. Scott, it was nice to meet you and your girlfriend. Oh, Jon Luini videotaped this one too....maybe sometimes within the next 2 years we'll get a video? Also, if you're waiting for your live cd to be delivered, Michael told me that he's be very busy, and had about ten waiting to be sent out...said he probably won't be making any more since he is so busy. It's great he is busy, but not making any more? Um, maybe it is just me, but I know that once you have the master copy made, it's pretty simple to make copies if you don't need the machine for other stuff....and if I was him, I would want that little extra income from the purchase of live cd's. But that's just me. Too bad Paul doesn't have/check email, I would just ask him, he seemed more amiable last night. Anyway, that's my diatribe.

I've been following this band ever since they opened for The Cure.
You guys are an inspiration!!! SF FANS LOVES YOU!
Keep rockin'!!!

(p.s. my fav part of can't hardley wait is when the character mike dexter is getting it put to him just because that song is playing in the background!!!)

Randy (rej112@psu.edu): - I've been a Black Lab fan for a couple years now. Right now I am munching on the B-sides and soundtrack stuff until I can get my hands on a new album. I really like the 5 new songs on Just the Music. I would kill to have them on CD or even MP3. You guys have really inspired the way that I write and play my music. My favorite new song is Perfect Girls. I like the way that Michael uses the Wah pedal... truly unique. If you guys ever visit the East Coast again DO NOT FORGET ABOUT THE CROW BAR in State College, PA. My friends and I all want to see you guys live! I kick myself on a daily basis for missing the Aug 1st show at the TLA in Philly a couple years ago with Athenaeum. I had to work! That was probably an awesome show!! Two of my favorite bands under one roof!!! To hell with work, what was I thinking?! Oh well, take care and best of luck. You guys are too cool!

Renegard (onefoxydude@hotmail.com): - Oh, another thing that I though was pretty cool, I have these mix cds, right with lots of the songs from bands that I like or songs that have a connection to me in one way or another. So I'm on a basketball road trip and Stoyen, the guy who just moved out from Bulgaria and hardly knows any English asked me if he could listen to one of my CDs to see what kind of music I like. So I gave him Edge4 and he listened to it for a while. Later, when he gave teh CD back he asked me what song 14 or whatever was, and it was Time Ago. He said 'I hev never heard dis song, it is very very good.' and I told him that is was Black Lab and he had never heard of them. He kept asking me to borrow that CD for the rest of the trip and he constantly listened to the song and I let him listen to the whole CD and he said 'They could be very big'. I don't know, just an interesting story, Black Lab could be big in Bulgaria.
- Date: Sat Mar 18 13:55
Renegard (onefoxydude@hotmail.com): - After hearing the 5 new songs on just the music I also decided to go searching for some of the new songs black lab have recorded. I found a few interesting things, I found two songs that were recorded rather poorly, Circus Lights and I Don't Love You (The bridge is killer in this song). I also found a really good song called Hole in the Sky and a very strange cover of a christmas song 'What Child'. I'm going to send out for the live CD on monday, I can't wait.
I'm very excited about the idea Paul had about the FTP. The second CD could be released here on the website through the FTP, I just think that first it should be finished and ready in physical form and fully completed so that the website doesn't just have a bunch of songs at varying qualities. It would have to be professional so that people only get the best, none of this napster stuff at 96kbps. I'd be willing to pay to download the album but I don't think that that's the best way to go, I mean even if I had the digital version I would go out and buy the album. But who knows if Black Lab is going to get to make an official release for a long time with no record deal. I'm just saying go for it, do the online release, but only after everything is considered. I just wish you guys good luck.

You can set the mood of the song in less than one second. That's pure talent there. Can anyone keep me updated on information such as new lineup changes and new albums and songs and stuff? i would really appreciate that. anyways, much props to ya for bein' an inspiring band. good luck to you in the future. l8er
- Date: Thu Mar 16 13:28
Lisa (Bowiechaser@aol.com): - Michael....I'm glad you booked bands you personally like. Doesn't mean I will, usually I don't like the opening bands. I don't know why, but I usually don't, with a couple of exceptions. Hmm...when I went to see The Cure a few years back, I LOVED the opening band......heh. Yeah, I don't sound real openminded, but perhaps I just don't want to see bands from the area I live in. Perhaps I hate the music scene here and the only good band I have seen up here, when it comes to locals, is a cover band. Perhaps the only reason I forked over 200 clams is because I want to see YOUR band play. I would be totally happy with *no* opening band, because that way I could see you guys, perhaps chat with you after the show, get a pic or two in, and go back to Dawn's and catch up with one of my best friends. *grin* I'm not flying down for the openers, I don't care about the openers....I care about BLACK LAB. Of course I realize what you mean, that I could be missing out on some great music. You are right, of course, but we'll see about that when I come. Just be happy I like YOUR band, don't worry that I may not like the openers you love.
Anyway....on to something else....................To the person flying in for their birthday who wants to meet the band--it's VERY easy to meet them. YOu either show up really early and catch them before soundcheck, or you hang around after the show and hope that they'll come out to sign stuff or take pics with you. Also, if I was you and had never met the band, I would email Michael and ask HIM what HE recommends, since he reads and responds to his mail pretty well. Blacklab23@hotmail.com is the well known email addy. Good luck, and I'll be there with my friend Dawn. Can't miss the two of us. (I wonder if Andy is going) Email me if you want to meet up.

Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - This is to anyone reading who is going to the show,
I am going but I am probably going alone so I would love it if I could meet some of you devout fans there. I know it doesn't matter because do you know who will be ther with me yeah that's right BL so I won't mind, but you know it'll be my first time in San Fran and I'll have to stay the night, but I want so badly to meet the band and I would like someones help in that because I am flying out for my birthday and I only want to meet them so there you go. Someone can do that for me for my birthday. Thanks a ton.Cameron in az

I'll be at the CPFA every day this year 'cause I'll be working at one of the stages (aiding the sound man... i love my job!) It's at State College. I am sure they already have the stages booked for this year, but maybe you can think about a performance next year...??? I know, too soon. But I'm a capricorn, always thinking ahead. If you could possibly work it so that you're at memorial stage, we've been running the sound there for three years in a row. :-)
Just a plead from a loving fan.

Jen (black_lab_girl@hotmail.com): - Phil- It is not that easy to get a record label and an album all together in six months. Think about it. They have been working too hard with everything right now, doing shows (to promote black lab), talking to labels (to promote), going to LA (to promote)... Get the idea? I am not saying I would not love to see another black lab album and a tour, but in reality, we can't all beg and plead for a new album..At least not to black lab..It's not their fault :) Anyway, this is not directed at you, Phil, but everyone who wants a new CD or whatever else... It takes time, just be patient, just as they are being right now! :)
- Date: Sat Mar 11 19:46
phil suckulusky (blurg@bleh.com): - yeah....i'm willing to bet there's no way in hell any member of the band will ever read this, or that it's already been said, but if you're looking for a label, why don't you try wind-up? they took creed, and with some good advertising strategies, turned them into one of the biggest bands there is right now. yes, i think that's a good idea... so go do it, i want to see a new black lab album in stores within 6 months, so you all better hurry up.

I 've been a fan of Black Lab for awhile, just never thought of really getting into their hardcore fanbase. I have Your Body Above me and it's an amazing cd. I espescially like Time Ago and Gates of the Country. I am the biggest fan of third eye blind so it's pretty cool that arion and brad helped out with black lab. I actually just went to 3eb's concert this week in sf. Speaking of concerts, what is the age limit in Slims for this 23rd show? I probably can't go b/c i'm not 18 nor 21 but maybe bl will tour soon?

I am coming to the show from pheonix AZ and I don't know how to get to Slim's from the airport or even where Slim's is in San Fran so like if anyone out there can give me some what of directions to tell the cab driver or if Black Lab wants to spring for a limo since your NUMBER ONE fan is flying all the way from AZ just for one night to see you play then that would work too. Either way I need some help from some one that knows San Fran well and can help me get to the show. Thanks a bunch and I'll see all of you there. Cameron Gillins

Max Eisenberg (maxamillion@surfree.com): - After a couple of months away from the internet, I was happy to see a e-mail from Black Lab. I went to the link on the e-mail, to JusttheMusic.com, and was so happy to see three new songs on the web site. Ever since I picked up Your Body Above Me, I have been a huge fan of Black Lab music. The new songs were great, I can't wait to here more. I hope it is sooner than later that I am picking up the new Black Lab album, off of the record shelves. Please try to get to the east coast hopefully Greenville, South Carolina, or some where near by. If you do a show in St. Louis, and need a opening band check out my buddies in the band Somnia. They are really making noise up there. Well keep up the good work, and I hope to hear you soon, either live or on a new cd. Thanks, Max

Dan Schaap (The_Rocket9@hotmail.com): - Hey Everybody,
I've just got to say how amazing this band really is. I took a gamble in a music club two years ago with YBAM. I'd heard the single Wash It Away and was hooked right away. So on a whim I decided to purchase the whole disk just to check it out and it blew me away. Gates of the Country is one of the most beautiful songs i've heard in a long time. But I must say my favourite is off of the Perminent Midnight soundtrack, Horses is simply the best to date. Two thumbs up on this amazing song and the first album. I can't wait for some new material soon, I hunger for it. Keep up the good work guys
Devoted fan,
Dan Schaap
(P.S. I am also a fan of third eye blind and think that it's totally awesome that brad and aaron are helping out. Kick ass!!!!!

Poder Omega (poderalpha@worldnet.att.net): - Mix tape 37 with the new Black Lab songs and interview is AWESOME. The songs were great (of course) and the interview answered some questions. I recorded the songs from the show into wave and I'm going to burn them onto a CD right away (not quite CD quality... but good enough!). I'd be more weary of annoucing that I'm snagging Black Lab songs of the net and burning them, but Paul said if he had it his way the next album would be free to download! Awesome

me (greeneyes2900@aol.com): - I have gone through the whole YBAM cd and am back at Wash It Away and it seems to be the only song on the album that pretty much describes the way I am feeling right now. I feel like I am lost in this world and I have just made a major mistake in my life and I just want to wash this pain and hurt away. You guys seem to know the right songs for everyone and how they feel. She Loves Me, I guess you can see describes the way I feel about the man I am currently with now. Sorry, I don't mean to ramble on like this. I guess what I am trying to say here is, you guys have an extreme amount of talent and it shows deeply in your music. I am a very picky person when it comes to bands and their music, and yours just went straight to my heart. Well, I'll go for now. I'll check in at a later date and I hope that I am forgiven for what happened a couple yrs back. I would really like to hear from you guys, or shall I say Michael.

sleepswithangels (ten_million_years@yahoo.com): - i just finished reading the news section and it made me feel this deep need for the boys to play a new york show. i dont know about anyone else, but the world is suffering a lack of great music. radio is getting pathetic and songs sound exactly the same. Black Lab, please, I'm begging you, as "back that thing up" blasts in my ear cuz its the only station with good reception, make some plans to visit NY and give us one awesome night. Thanks for ur time...

Lisa (bowiechaser@aol.com): - Well my goodness.....makes me feel like I've got the greatest boyfriend on earth, hearing about Jenne's loser in jail (aren't you carrying his child, Jen? That's too bad for the kid that it's daddy is a jailbird....you've got an eye for these guys, girly!), and Annie's dumping...makes me wanna drive over and tell my bf that he's the BEST, and give him a big kiss. Well....I haven't looked at the rest of the page, but I hear that the BL guys are playing in SF on 3-23..........I ****might**** be able to make it...it's between seeing THEM or Eric Martin a few days before that...already have plane tix to see Eric, but his pop died a couple weeks back, so he may be grieving too much to play---I know *I* would be. Well...I guess I just thought I'd fit in something BL related into my post. Glad to hear things seem to be perking up in the BL camp!

Annie aka I'm on a high for a few min (zoso16@hotmail.com): - Hello everyone. Well I'm still VERY UPSET. I couldn't sleep at all last night, I cried around alll day, I cried tonight when he walked into the club we were at. And then he came up and said hi to me and i said hi and walked away. And then he left, and my friends told me to go after him.. And we talked.. he said maybe we can pick things back up later, I'm so busy right now yada yada and i dont want to hurt you annie and i did this for you basically so i wouldnt put you in a position to hurt you.. and i guess i understand, but Im still feeling horrible, and whaddya know I leave with some other guy and go for a drive...... and i didnt do anything i regret or I will regret, but I did take my mind off of it for a while and Im feeling better.. but i know later on I'm gonna feel it again, but maybe some male could help me understand.. it must be a guy thing, and i KNOW he's truly being sincere. Thanks everyone for trying to comfort me..

jenne (greeneyes2900@aol.com): - Hey,Labbers. Just checking in to see what's new on the page. I'm sorry to hear the bad news,Annie. I know EXACTLY how you feel. Be lucky you're not pregnant with the guys baby. That's even worse. The guy I have been with is in jail,but and the way he's been acting when I go visit him, I don't think he wants to be with me and that really hurts. So I know how u feel. Anyways, I see a lot has changed. Well, I'll go for now. I'll check in later. Jen

Handsome Jon (handsomejon@hotmail.com): - Wow, I just went to the DEFTONES page. The resemblance is uncanny. Now if only the Deftones could copy Black Lab's music style, then we'd have two good bands instead of one. :)

kristian (kristian@wantree.com.au): - Hey.....well, I'm a Sydney resident now....woo hoo.....NOT! Sydney Sux! Well, compared to Perth it does....but it is not without it's charm. I'm sure I'll get used to it. Working at Fox Studios does help (www.al.com.au) for anyone who's interested. I'll be working on a show called FarScape which is supposedly already airing in the US....so, yeah. Keep an eye out. Hey Annie, sorry to hear about the breakup thing. Email me if you'd like someone to talk to. "love is so short, forgetting is so long..." You'll get through it. Hang in there.

Kane (need backstage passes@aol.com): - March 23rd, hmmm...are we back to that "23" thingy? You guys are too superstitious. Lets hope the show is in LA, maybe the Hollywood Athletics Club again, or even the Glass House(first time I saw you guys with OLP). What I'm saying is, lets concentrate on the LA area first before you guys go out to the cold winter stormin' east coast. No offense east coast labbers/labberettes. =)
- Date: Sun Feb 20 14:08
kara (garbe@virginia.edu): - please come to the east coast! TRAX is a great venue... :)
just had to add in my plea, though i am sure it is entirely ineffectual.

- Date: Thu Feb 17 23:09
jenne (greeneyes2900@aol.com): - Hola ppl. Just checking in to see what is going on. It's good to know that Michael finally posted something on what is going on. Hey,Simon, I hear ya on the Valentine's thing. Although I DO have a boyfriend, we were apart on Valentine's Day,due to to him being in the slammer,but we won't go there. Anyways, I hope everyone is doing well. I'll continue to check in more often. I haven't been in here for a while. Bye for now. Jenne
- Date: Thu Feb 17 16:39
Handsome Jon (assmunkey@hotmail.com): - It's great to hear from Michael, but I still wanna know why everyone stopped talking about Scott Baio!!!!
- Date: Wed Feb 16 23:13
PoderOmega (poderalpha@worldnet.att.net): - That's awesome news! I'm pumped for more Black Lab
- Date: Wed Feb 16 12:34
Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - Wooohooo! You're going to play live shows again; this means that I don't have to handcuff myself to the Geffen building anymore. Good thing, my wrist was starting to hurt. But I'm still going to picket their asses for not taking care of Black Lab. Let's hope someone video tapes the shows this time. Hey Michael, hope your hand is well, I have accumulated a lot of Black lab memorabilia that is itching for an autograph!
- Date: Wed Feb 16 05:55
hillery (reere@hotmail.com): - glad to hear you guys are doing well! wish i could be in california for those shows...you guys should come to maryland =) keep up the good work, can't wait to hear some new stuff.

Michael B. (blacklab23@hotmail.com): - Hey Everyone!!! I`ve been thinking about posting something for weeks to let you all know that things are starting to pick up, and we`ll be playing some shows in SF and LA soon...I`ll have more to say next week, but Paul and I have been super busy auditioning people, and continuing to still write new stuff...We must have like three new albums worth of stuff by now!!! It`s really been one of the most positive aspects of all this "down time" for us...So as usual, I`d like to THANK ALL of YOU out there sooooo much for all your continued support!
- Date: Tue Feb 15 21:48
Simon (q9203354@topaz.cqu.edu.au): - I didn't wear black on Valentine's Day despite having been dumped ealier in the year. Valentine's Day brings about romance for those that are in relationships, it gives those harbouring crushes a stage from which to announce intentions or interest and desires, and for those just wanting someone to be brave enough to announce interest in them (like me for instance) by giving a rose or a small gift, it gives them (me) hope in that there may be someone out there that finds them/me attractive or slightly interesting. OK, now that the day has passed, the truth is NOW I AM WEARING BLACK!!!!!!!
PS the Lab the colour of my attire still rules!
- Date: Tue Feb 15 20:55
Squeegie Dude (st.valentine@cansuckmyass.com): - Valentine's Day is a holiday best celebrated by spiting ex's. I witnessed the desperate spectacle of panicking boyfriends clamoring and swarming around a florist stand, trying to buy the last roses before their girls would dump them. I was bitterly amused. Fine time to listen to a Placebo record.
- Date: Mon Feb 14 21:55
Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - Hey, I wore black today too. To me, Valentine's Day = Single Awareness Day.
- Date: Mon Feb 14 21:17
Anita (CiCi311@hotmail.com): - I wore black today
- Date: Mon Feb 14 18:21
Annie aka THIS IS A "MESSAGE" BOARD (zoso16@hotmail.com): - Well N'stync.. Umm it seems as if everyone else is allowed to post about their favourite bands, and who they want and like to see and all of that, so maybe you should shut the hell up because no one else had a problem with it... and i was just saying what i thought about the show.. not only the bsb.. so maybe you should know what the hell your talking about before you go b!tching at me ass hole!
- Date: Mon Feb 14 15:14
Cameron Gillins (gillinsfam@cs.com): - Hey B.L.,
So what is going on with the label deal.Hey if you guys could send me like an email with all you're names I could address each of you. Like how much I love the lead singers voice and how I think if you guys messed around with some more backwards guitar you could make some kick ass sounds with the tones and style you already have. Like 10 million years for instance. I just think that it is a great way to emphasize talent and style. So I have a question about your futures together. It just seems that unless you are rehersing on a regular basis together and are coming up with fresh new stuff for when your label mess is done with then it seems it would be easy to put Black Lab on the back burner, and if you guys broke up because of stuff like that it put a huge damper on me because I really just can't wait to hear some new stuff from you. Don't think that I'm throwing this "I know all so listen to me" attitude but I was just curious if the thought of breaking up ever came because of this temp.waiting period you guys are going through. I just think that you sound so awesome and if you could send some samples my way of some of you're new stuff that would be cool. You have my address so if you would send something I would be so the luckiest guy I know. It just means a lot to me the way you put stuff together. I'm sure you really have no idea the impact you've put on me because I'm new at this writing to the band thing so if you could reply at all oh man that would be the sweetest thing. You're the best and I hope to hear from you and I really hope to hear from you with some new stuff soon. Keep high hopes because I am and I know that I'm not alone when I say that you guys are awesome musicians. Take care.-----Cameron Gillins

I was right over by Los Gatos when I lived in San Jose....get odd Hwy 85 onto Saratogo-Sunnyvale, go right towards L.G., and hang a L. onto Prospect, I think it was....and I was down a block or so....hang a left on Blaney Ave.....and left atthe second street, down to the right around the corner, end of the cul-de-sac.

Squeegie Dude (youdidn'tknow@nokidding.com): - Lisa, you didn't know I lived in Californication? I thought people knew. btw, I did not get Cure tickets, despite waiting for two hours in the wind and rain. I'm really pissed off about it.
- Date: Sun Feb 13 18:08
Annie aka I am gonna get implants like Brits' (zoso16@hotmail.com): - Hello Hello.. yah yah! I DID IT! I WENT TO SEE THE BACKSTREET BOYS.. It was a hell ofa show! Even with out them it was great.. The lighting was phenominal the band was featured the whole time, the dancers were the best!!!!!! It was amazing!!!!!!!!! They hit every note right on, it was totally up the whole time..

Lisa (bowiecahser@aol.com): - Squeegie, I didn't know you were a BAY AREA guy!!! KICKASS! Black lab only opened for the Cure once, a couple of years back, for Live 105's Christmas Show that they do, it was HAWT!!!!!! Heh heh heh!

- Date: Fri Feb 11 22:43
Kane (EbowBelfer@aol.com): - Britney's ample breasts? Well...I guess we have officially run out of things to say on this board. Michael, we need a new album quickly, as it is only time before this board's conversation will shift to Scott Baio!
- Date: Fri Feb 11 20:54
ANNIE aka So what if her ta ta's arent real? (zoso16@hotmail.com): - Who cares if they arent real? I would get fake ones.. In fact I want them! NOW!
- Date: Fri Feb 11 20:31
Squeegie Dude (mustgetcuretickets@willcryifshowsellsout.com): - Lorena, I don't remember when BL opened for the Cure. But as you are nevefan1, I figured you might wanna know I got a picture taken with one of the guys in Neve, and it looks decent. as for Annie and her fascination with BSB, I do not understand. Boy bands and bubblegum are outside my realm of comprehension. Britney's ta-ta's are plastic and we all know it!!!
- Date: Fri Feb 11 12:19
Annie AKA.. MUAAAHAHAHHA BACKSTREETS BACK ALRIGHT!!!! (zoso16@hotmail.com): - BACKSTREET BOYS CONCERT TOMORROW! I know your prolly all pissed at me!!! But I mean they are coming to state college?!?! how could I not go!?!

kristian (kristian@wantree.com): - Ok, as of tomorrow morning, I'm on my way to Sydney. So IF Black Lab comes to Oz, then I should get a chance to see them. Hint hint!
- Date: Wed Feb 9 19:47
Squeegie Dude (slayingvampiresiscool@iwanttobeagoth.com): - They played the song on Buffy? As in the actual TV show? wow, that's cool. I missed it. I don't watch much TV. I'd rather be online. Besides, TV kills my brain cells. But the show has lots of viewers, so that's cool that so many ppl got to hear the song. Speaking of goth-like things, I'm counting down until the Cure show. Black Lab opened for them. That's so cool! okay, gonna vanish now.
- Date: Wed Feb 9 16:00
Lorena (anerol@uswest.net): - Hey everyone...did you hear black lab's song "Keep Myself Away" on Buffy last night? Awesome I tell you =) --nevefan1
- Date: Sun Feb 6 07:15
kristian (gladshewasn'there@formylastnightintown.phew): - if you want to hear a cool version of the afore-mentioned song, may i suggest you check out "Welcome To The Freak Show - Live" by DC Talk. They do a most excellent version and everyone in the band gets a solo.........'tis very cool.

It's been a while since the last update! And um... yeah. Anyone have the black BL shirt with the album cover on the front and the kinda tribal-y thing on the back with the "b" in the center? I want that tattood on my back between my shoulder blades, except, instead of the "b" I want a star in the little box.

I am not sure if this was to me, or another Jen, but I think it's for me :) So, no, it was not a chainmail, and no you don't have to pass it on... That was only my direct problems, and just trying to let everyone out there to tell your loved ones that you LOVE them before it's too late... Lorena- how was Neve? :)

- Date: Wed Jan 26 22:31
kristian (ifyouhaddaseen@thisgirl.com.au): - Squeegie, this girl was awesome man. She was worth ditching Bono for! At least, that's what I thought back then......I think.
- Date: Wed Jan 26 19:02
Squeegie Dude (notgoingtosydney@parentsareditchingmetoo.com.au): - and my parents are leaving me to go to sydney. and singapore. they're all ditching me. i am feeing acute separation anxiety and fear of abandonment.
- Date: Wed Jan 26 19:00
Squeegie Dude (relentless@pest.com): - yeah, neve will be returning in april, so they said. so i look forward to that. kristian: then you are a fool ;) fercryin'outloud that was BONO you were dealing with!!! i'd sacrifice a few friends for backstage passes to u2. then again, that's not an issue you should take up with me as i was once ditched by my friends for the POPmart tour. tragic.
- Date: Wed Jan 26 16:56
Kristian (movingtosydney@realsoon.com.au): - Hey Squeegie...... About two years ago, U2 came to Perth for their PopMart tour. A friend of mine was contracted to do some maintenance on their backstage video gear and was given some free all area access passes as part of his payment. I was lucky enough to get one. Woo Hoo! BUT my then girlfriend couldn't afford a ticket and there weren't anymore passes to score.....so we watched the show from outside. The venue actually had glass doors and we could see most of it from where we were but the pass went begging. Sigh......we're a rare breed us altruistic and fiercely loyal friends. Either that or we're just plain stupid.
- Date: Wed Jan 26 00:37
Lorena (anerol@uswest.net): - Yes...Neve is one of my favorite bands. =) I'm going to see them here in Arizona
on Thursday, that should be a fun show! Squeegie where do you live? I'm sure they'll come again :) You ROCK!!!! =) --nevefan1
- Date: Tue Jan 25 18:34
Squeegie Dude (willnotleaveyoualone@recurringnuisance.com): - Neve? did I hear someone say Neve? They were really nice to me. But I did not see them play because my friends did not have tickets and I did not want to ditch them. I am an altruistic and fiercely loyal squeegie.

I haven't anything against Aussie accents, but I prefer the English manner of speaking, that's all. As for friends with benefits, why does that sound like a 401k plan to me? Or do airbags and anti-lock brakes come standard?

kristian (kristian@wantree.com.au): - Hehe.....Squeegie.........Blink 182 may indeed suck but you gotta love that video clip where they're taking the piss out of the backstreet boys/brittney spears etc. That just cracks me up!
- Date: Tue Jan 11 23:51
Squeegie Dude (bink182sucks@blink182arewankers.com): - Kristian: yuck, Blink 182 are a bunch of wankers. If you go, please throw a heavy blunt object at them on my behalf. And if possible, write on that heavy blunt object: "Blink 182 can suck Squeegie Dude's [expletive that rhymes with rock]" Lauren: I haven't been on Usenet in a very long time. i used to log into a.m.m. (but I know you hate the manics) and a.m.stereophonics. I log onto radiohead.com and followmearound.com a lot, though. As for Oxford Uni, that was a dream of mine before I ever even heard "Creep". Parents shot that one down *real* quick, though. Said I had to stay in the state. hmm, I haven't said anything BL relevant in a while. uhh...got some ppl hooked on "Time Ago" :)

- Date: Mon Jan 10 09:17
lauren (breathein@hotmail.com): - yo squeeege...i'm american too. but i completely empathize with you. of course, my wanting to go to oxford has nothing to do with wanting to stalk ed, colin, or jonny. no...not at all...*looks around*. i just wondered if you visit AMR, but your answer was sufficient in letting me know that you don't. :) btw..it's alt.music.radiohead. we're all elitist snobs over there. ;)
- Date: Sun Jan 9 23:07
kristian (won'tbehere@forthebigday.out): - Hey Squeegie, NIN, Chilli Peppers and I think Korn are coming for the Big Day Out. There's a bunch of others but I can't remember them. Last Year Marilyn Manson was here and only *just* made it out alive after getting booed off stage and having a temper tantrum backstage whereby he slashed the large inflatable swimming pool letting thousands of litres of water flood the backstage area. If you've ever worked on an outdoor gig then you'll know how messy it is with power cables etc running everywhere. Suffice to say, he's a lucky boy to not get zapped by the water/electicity combination (and we're talking LOTS of electricity) and he's even luckier the local roadies didn't beat the crap out ouf him. Just a piece of trivia for you.
- Date: Sun Jan 9 17:56
Squeegie Dude (want-to-go-to-uni@oxford.ac.uk): - Lauren: I'm an American. Sad case, isn't it.

mr.neruda (i@see.co.uk): - Ah Mr Squeegie, I see. It makes sense now. Well, I'm listening to a lady by the name of Margaret Becker right now. And the line that just past me was: "I am clay and I am water, falling forward in this order. While the world spins round so fast, slowly I'm becoming who I am." As for the glockenspiel arrangement, I can't help you I'm afraid but if you'd like, I can arrange it for the bazouki.
- Date: Sun Jan 9 00:12
Squeegie Dude (will-never-be-thom-yorke@radiohead.com): - Neruda: i was listening to The Bends, and the song "Just" played as I read your message, so I felt compelled to reply. "You do it to yourself, you do. And that's what really hurts." and I can't remember the rest of it right now. I'm feeling like "Creep" myself: obsessive, dejected, disoriented and all around kinda sick. But I'm also inspired to write out a glockenspiel arrangement for "No Surprises" Got some of the song scored already.
- Date: Sat Jan 8 21:19
mr neruda. (please@explain.co.uk): - Please explain Mr Squeegie? I am not sure I follow. I do believe it is possible that you have misunderstood my lament. Surely it is not to gain sympathy, but rather an expression of my innermost thoughts. Your thoughts, Mr Squeegie?

Squeegie Dude (u2-rocks-my-world@bono-is-god.com): - kristian: I meant Northern Ireland, a Commonwealth of the United Kingdom, not the Republic of Ireland, which is its own sovereign nation (I had to look all those titles up). Anyway, yeah, Ireland gave us U2, and for that I'm really really grateful. The Joshua Tree is one of the most kickass albums of all time!!! Northern Ireland, on the other hand, is totally lacking in killer bands. by the way, i don't smoke *g* and briefly back to the subject of Australia, who's playing Big Day Out?

Squeegie Dude (dontpickonthewelsh@welshpplrule.co.uk): - Hey now, don't be pickin' on the Welsh, especially the Manics! Wales has brought us loads of killer bands like Feeder (hey, they were on the Can't Hardly WAit soundtrack, too!), Stereophonics, MANIC STREET PREACHERS, Super Furry Animals, Mansun, Shack, Catatonia, and Tom Jones. Y'know who *really* needs help are the Northern Irish. They've got no interesting bands to their credit.

Nursing Student Extraordinare (holidays-are-great@my-side.of.the.hemisphere.com): - Hello to all! Many moons have come and gone since I have last post...ed (just doesn't sound right) Anyway I had shuffled my BL Cd away to take a much needed vacation, and yet again pulled it out to be all freshly listened to again. WHoo HOo. I have no clue where Slims is, but I do wouldn't mind getting a copy of the video. What do I have to offer? Two formalin saturated kitten fetus' from the cat I disected in anatomy, A sheeps brain and extra bonus a Free KIDNEY, and a cow's heart. However in accepting these offers to the great BL Gods, you would have to promise me that you wouldn't eat/and or feed these items to children, animals, or yourself.
Oh a Marty PopSicle!!.....Lisa, Lisa, Lisa, willst thou ever change???? I certainly hope not! How's it going chicky? Catch ya in a chat sometime? need to let me know what times you're on the puter.

Simon (q9203354@topaz.cqu.edu.au): - Speaking of the Scottish, one of the best movies about a Scotsman would have to be Braveheart. Hang on a sec....wasn't that directed by an Australian. Yeah that's right, it was still good though. Hang on again....didn't it also star and Australian??? It was still good though. Hang on...wasn't it produced by an Australian. Well I guess now we know why it was good, Squeegie

mr.neruda (brokenhearted@joy.com): - Isn't it funny how joy and sorrow can co-exist? Have you ever been so unbelievably happy and yet, at the same time, there is still a part of your life that brings you tremendous sadness? I'm really struggling....... to understand it......... "I no longer love her, that's certain, but how I loved her. Love is so short..... forgetting is so long." Bulletproof? Not me.

Troy (troystoi@hotmail.com): - Hey you guys in the band, hope you had a great Y2K and that business with a new
label is sorting itself out. I'm in a band myself here in Brisbane, Australia and I know how it feels just toget a label intersted in your stuff, everyone who hears our material says 'it's great, very refreshing' but does a piece of paper with contract written on it come into view, AAHHHHAAA wrong answer Hans!!
So keep up the good work dudes. I'll quote something below on a school sign
I saw the other day and it blew me away....chow for now anyway.
"I prayed to God to give me all things to enjoy life, instead God gave me life to enjoy all things".
Hmmmm, I think there's a lesson in that for someone out there!!!

kristian (kristian@wantree.com.au): - HA! Squeegie Dude......if the ENGLISH had any brains at all they would have left their prsioners in ENGLAND and moved to Australia THENSELVES!!!!!!!! Fools they are! As for the welsh, well, what was that line out of the movie trainspotting? Something about the English being a bunch of wankers but what did that say about the welsh 'cos they were colonised by a bunch of wankers! Something like that anyway! LOL. Ahhhhhh, I'm having an absolutely magnificent day. My PRS Custom 22 arrived today, whale blue with bird inlay on the neck, It's a whopping 38 degrees celsius, I don't have to work today and the beach is going OFF! AND to top it all off, I have a date with the most beautiful girl in the world down by the coast tonight! Can it get any better than this? I think not! Sigh...... Life is good.

I'll show you proud! the WELSH!!! hahahaha!!! flag wavers, the whole lot of them. And for what? Some turf and some sheep. They're owned by the ENGLISH fercryin'outloud!!! Where's the pride in that? Awww, if ya think I'm picking on the Welsh, I'm just taking the piss. Don't mind me.

There are such things as Britney Spears dolls. I about hurled when I saw them on the shelf at Wal-Mart. Hell, if Britney can be turned into a plastic doll (gawd knows, those boobies of hers are plastic already), then I oughtta release a line of official "Squeegie Dude Fun-Time Squeegies" fun for the whole family. It'll be the next big thing, like those Pokemon cards. And about that video, if they haven't made it ABUNDANTLY clear already, it's not going out into the world, so deal already!

Lisa (bowiechaser@aohell.com): - Kristian, you hit it right on the head, HAHAHHAA!!!! You're good like that, though!
I think Marty doesn't mind knowing all that stuff, he's got a pretty good picture already, and it cracks us both up. You'd have to know all about our chats to understand that one, but that's a private matter.
You know, I was looking at my scanner just now (got one for Christmas, woo hoo!), thinking of all the MF4 pics I need to scan for my website, adn then I thought of all the Black Lab photo's I have, and was feeling rather badly for what I semi said about Michael in my last post. He's been very cool to me these last couple years, let me take pictures at plenty of the concerts I saw him at and all that. Sure, we've had words in private, but yanno....that's life, he and I are both human. I'd like to publically retract my "stories I could tell" comment, because I don't ever plan on telling my personal stories, at least not ALL of them....some are for my memories only, as well as other involved parties. So anyway....that's THAT. I still wonder how much money it would take to get a copy of that SLIMS video, because that is *the* show I want, dagnabit...show me a price, folks!
- Date: Thu Dec 30 18:05
kristian (kristian@wantree.com.au): - OHHHHHH Marty!!!!!!!!! lol.........geez you crack me up Lisa. hehe. I wonder how Marty would feel if he knew you wanted to use him as a popsicle! LOL. Anyway.........it's already new year's eve here now........so to all - friends, foes and otherwise - have yourselves a good night when it finally rolls around to the northern hemisphere and turn BL up to 11! Yeah Baby!

Lisa (bowiechaser@aol.com): - I forgot one other thing.....Labber23, I AGREE!!!! I don't care about the quality, if it isn't up to industry standards or whatever, I WANT *****THAT***** CONCERT!! The one at Slims when Paul's arm is broken and wearing a gauzy black shirt. The SHOW was good, and the VIEW was good. BRING IT ON, dagnabit!!!!!! MAN, who really GIVES a hoot if it isn't perfect, I just want a bootleg copy of it, I don't care HOW I get it!!!!! Yeesh!! I bid $15 for a copy, cold hard cash!!!
- Date: Thu Dec 30 15:46
Lisa (bowiecahser@aol.com): - HEH HEH HEH. I love how someone ASSUMES a)it was me, and b)if it was that I meant Michael. *GRIN* a)it WAS me, so that part's true...but b)it's NOT Michael. And Mike, if you're reading this, tell whomever that is to cut their shi t out, because I've got plenty of stories I *could* tell that wouldn't be appreciated by some people. I just choose NOT to, that's all. =) Anyhow, the guitar player in question would be bass guitar of a certain other band I have mentioned numerous times. Who, you ask? The Mayfield Four, my friends! Originally used as a cup coaster (one of a kind), now loved by many, far and wide, LOL!!! Thank you for the defense, doll...you were partially right!
Love and kisses, and be safe New Years eve!

Hey guys. I hope your Christmas went well. Other than the fact I spent most of the day in ER, mine was alright. I got tons of stuff and I'm happy. Now I can go out and get the Buffy soundtrack to go with the cd boombox my sister got me. I'm a happy camper now. Hope to see you guys back on tour soon. My best wishes to you all. Love Jen

Jenny (BSHmaypole@AOL.com): - Whew, it has been a while since I've been here! I come and there's a whole new opening page... looks great, guys! Cannot WAIT to hear new stuff. I'm still stuck on YBAM, of course. Wow, come next May and it'll be two years since I my 2 BL shows. I miss you guys so much! God have I changed since last time I saw the guys... I had short, flaming hair then! Now it's black and pink chin-length. I wonder if they'll even recognize me next time... lol. Anyway, hurry up and get on tour.

Kristian (kristian@wantree.com.au): - Well, It's 10 am here right now........Christmas Day. And while most of you are having a white Christmas.......or at least a cold one, it's about 110 degrees here in West Australia..........so if you'll all excuse me, I'm going to the beach! Lurv Yuz All!

Cathy (pat0616@email.com): - Merry Christmas!
MissYou Guys.Hey I know you are looking for a new label but in the meantime how about just sending me copies of all the new stuff? I have a tape player and you can trust me..hehe. Good luck in 2000 and get yer asses to Pittsburgh!

Stephanie (starchild7@hotmail.com): - I saw the big "b" and just stopped... But all in all, very nice! You guys are probably really sick of hearing about it, but still, I'm really excited for a new album!

¤ Queen Katie ¤ (wdkj@bright.net): - Did someone say "coo"? Umm...OK. There will be no complaining about the new pages. I, for one, enjoy the simplicity of the main page. Black & green is fine & dandy, but with a new album comes an obligatory new look, doesn't it? That's just the way it goes. By the way, I've never written on this thing before. Welcome me. Thank you. Merry Christmas Eve eve. Yeah.

Shawn (static.sun@yifan.net): - I'M SO GLAD YOU GUYS UPDATED! After not seeing an update on the site forever, I thought that you guys had suffered the unspeakable. NOPE! Good thing too. Good luck on the label thing. See yah!

Jon (assmunkey@hotmail.com): - I guess I'll be the first one to complain about the new pages. They're not black and green!!! The horror, the horror. (Joseph Conrad is going to have my head for that one) We must all live in a world of blue!

For a minute there I was trippin when I tried to get to the home page. I kept going back and pushing the button over again. Oh well, it's all cool. It's been a LONG while since I've heard any of Black Lab's songs on the radio. They don't often play my requests either. Anyways, I know I already wished you all a happy holiday and new year, I'll wish it again. May you all have a very Merry Christmas and an even better New Year. God bless.

Johnson (johnson2_3@hotmail.com): - "Long Time Ago"???????
Does Black Lab have a new single out?
- Date: Mon Dec 20 21:08
Sarah (Smackie617@aol.com): - I just want to say that I have become quite a fan of Black Lab. The first time that I heard them, I was working at my former job. The kid I worked with controlled the radio station, so I really wasn't paying all that much attention. Then "Long Time Ago" came on and I was paralyzed. The lyrics were so great and the melody haunted me. The song fit the worst breakup I had gone through and I was close to tears. From then on, I vowed to find that song. I didn't purchase it until very recently. I then found out just how cool the entire cd is. I have to give props to Black Lab - they are pretty coo!

Happy Holidays everyone:)
