Tony Responds to Concerns, Questions

Obviously, there is a LOT of news to report -if you have been on the message boards in the past week, you know this! The comeback show at the University of Mary Washington was AMAZING. Videos from that show will be posted as standalone files on the site later this week, but for now, check out the links posted in this thread on the message board.

Now, onto some other news. Tony emailed me this morning with an EXCLUSIVE statement that he wanted to be released ONLY on Eve 6 Media HQ.

Here is the statement, straight from the email:

To all Eve 6 kids far and wide,

Once again thank you for sticking with us through thick and thin. Having folks like you supporting us makes the whole thing bounce along. We're in the process of booking more shows and are confident that, eventually, we will be able to hit any place that will have us.

We wanted to put out a statement intended for the fans and users of the message boards that will hopefully clarify some things and dispel some rumors that might be flying around. Here goes:

1) The Mary Washington show:
We DID NOT have any serious problems with anyone at the college, booking or otherwise, and they most certainly DID NOT get lax with the sound equipment and let it purposefully falter on us. There were some minor communication hiccups leading up to the show, and a very brief discussion regarding the rugby team and ourselves that lasted 60 seconds, but other than that, it couldn't have gone smoother. All the staff of Giant Productions and everyone else at the school were totally awesome with us, from when we booked the gig a couple months back to after the show. The PA going out was 100% pure rock power and there was nothing that could be done about it. The sound company actually gave us a formal apology.

2) "All These Things"
We're glad that people seem to be reacting well to it, but it should be known that this won't likely become an Eve 6 song. We wrote it for someone else and decided to play it at the show for kicks. Things could change, but as of right now another artist will record it. And yes we wrote it all by ourselves, and Alex Band isn't doing it. That's all to say at this time.

3) American Idol??
This one really made us laugh. We are not bitter, and never have been, at RCA Records or especially American Idol. American Idol and RCA releasing Eve 6 are not related. Although if Constantine so much as blinks at us the wrong way at Friday's show the full fury of Eve 6 will drop upon his head like a 73-pound sledgehammer.

4) The Sugi Tap
By the time you read this, we will have released what may be the last "official" Sugi Tap song for a while. "Peace of Mind" will be available through the Snocap store and you can hear a clip on our Sugi Tap Myspace music player. Yes it's true, there is a handful of Sugi recordings that we're putting in the vault for the time being. They could resurface somewhere, some time. We apologize for not releasing the EP in CD form, although it may appear as a limited edition collector's item one day. Speaking of, here are the credits for The Sugi Tap E.P.

So there we have it. Tony has straightened a few things out for us huh? Be sure to click on the hyperlinks in the above post to be wisked away to the proper portion of the interwebs to view said content.

One last note - to anyone connected with concert planning committees at your local university - PLEASE contact Tony at Eve6Mail@gmail.com to try to get Eve 6 booked at your school. The way Eve 6 was able to book their first show back at the University of Mary Washington was because a girl on the plan committee got in touch with Tony. You can do the same thing!

Exclusive Interview - Q&A With Max & Tony

All of these questions were submitted by fans on the message boards UNEDITED, so be sure to head on over and get into the discussion. Maybe your question will be answered by Max and Tony next! One highlight from this is that Eve 6 WILL BE incorporating Anytime into future setlists. Pretty exciting stuff!

Official Posts from Eve 6 & The Sugi Tap

The OFFICIAL annoucement is here!!!

Eve 6 returning to the world of music...

Hey boyz and girlz,
So here's the big news. You probably figured it out by the title, but yes, Eve 6 is coming back. After a 3 year hiatus, we're getting our stuff together to get out there and play for you all once again. We've given it a lot of thought and ultimately decided the best thing to do would be to make more music as Eve 6. There isn't a defined plan for a new album yet, but one will eventually be forthcoming.

To start with we'll play some shows, simple as that. The first one is actually two short weeks away at the University of Mary Washington in Virginia (Oct. 20th). However we have been told that this show is NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, just students at the university. We would love nothing more than to see all of you crammed onto the quad at this nice little college, but not to worry, you'll see us soon. If you happen to live in the LA area we're also playing a benefit for the Donate Life Foundation on October 26th with Alex Band from the Calling and others. Check here http://www.myspace.com/donateliferocks1 for more information.

At this time, Jon Siebels will not be returning as our stalwart guitar player. Things are cool between us all though. We talked to him about this, and he's decided to focus on his new band, Monsters are Waiting, and on his career as a producer here in Los Angeles. We've worked out the necessary arrangements, and he's given us his blessing to carry on the name in his absence. Our pal Matt Bair from Band Camp will be handling guitar duties at these shows. Make him feel welcome!

As some of you might know, Max and Tony had a little side project called the Sugi Tap. This is being put on hold indefinitely, but check out our online EP before it becomes unavailable. Go to www.myspace.com/sugitap to listen to some tunes and purchase the EP. It will only be available for a few more weeks, so get it while you can. We will be playing a few of these songs at future Eve 6 shows.

That's it for now. This myspace page will undergo a serious renovation soon, and we'll give out information as it becomes available. Check out the excellent Eve 6 Media HQ fansite (www.eve6mediahq.com) for further information and discussions with the fan community. We can't wait to see you out there!
tony and max,
Eve 6

The Sugi Tap Version:

The Sugi Tap is dead....long live the Sugi Tap!!!

Make him feel welcome! We've been spending a lot of time writing and producing for other artists, so that along with the return of Eve 6 means that the Sugi Tap is paused indefinitely. Thanks to everyone that purchased the EP. It will only be available on the Snocap Music Store and our own online store for a short time more, so if you haven't picked up a copy do it now before it becomes unavailable. We'll put up one last bonus track for the remaining few weeks. Look for us to play some of the tunes at future Eve 6 shows.

That's it for now. Everyone should go and friend us at myspace.com/eve6 -- this is where we'll be spending most of our online time now. See you out there!
tony and max,
The Sugi Tap/Eve 6

IT'S OFFICIAL - EVE 6 IS BACK

Well folks, the day is here. The big news has been revealed. Enough tension yet? EVE 6 IS BACK!!!! The only downside is that Jon will not be a part of the newly reformed Eve 6. Jon is happy in Monsters Are Waiting and gave the guys his blessing to continue on without him. Right now, all that is planned are some random college shows through the Spring. Max and Tony are also writing for a bunch of other bands which is taking up a lot of their time. These are exciting times, loyal Eve 6 fans! Be sure to stay tuned to the forums to keep up to date on the LATEST news before I can even update the site. Also, see this post on the message board for info on the two announced shows, until we create a newly functional tour section of the site. Once again, thanks for sticking through the dog days when we all thought Eve 6 was gone. Our perseverance has paid off.
