Dec. 9: Happy Channukkah!
I don't know if any of you out there have read the article in ALTERNATIVE PRESS but they have a little section for GC about their new album. I typed it up and Im posting it here in case anyone wanted it :



GOOD CHARLOTTE

ABLUBUM TITLE : TBA

RELEASE DATE :April or May 2002 on Epic

WHAT CAN WE EXPECT?

Having logged thousands of miles on their tour van, Good Charlotte plan to enter the studio after Christmas with a yet-to-be-named producer to throw down their second album. "I think the last record is a little too polished." admits guitarist Benji. "The fans are always telling us that our show is way harder then the record. We want the next record to be as hard as our shows, but at the same time, we love to do ballads. I can promise you that (the next album) will be us." While the guitarist claims that GC write music for themselves, he says they do keep their audience in mind. "We want to have a positive effect on our fans," Benji says, "but we dont take ourselves too seriously. Every change in life brings a new set of problems, as well as great things. I hope we can convey them." [JP]

Dec. 7: I got this off the Australian GC Girls site, not sure of the addy but it's linked on the official page so go check it out
