Just wanted to say thanks to all of YOU! the Fans, supporters of Saosin, the LIFES BLOOD. It's because of you that we are able to take steps (maybe even leaps?) like putting out this DVD, hell, like writing you a letter from Singapore!! After being on the road for almost two years, we wanted to capture some of those things you guys have made possible, so we called some friends, worked our asses off, drank from sacred conch of a fourteen legged octopus and BAM! the result was, COME CLOSE.
The DVD has a full live concert we did in Philly, lighting, sound and smelly dudes included. Also, a videos section with all the music videos we made, some you may have never seen, as well as a behind the scenes look at the videos for "You're Not Alone" and "Voices". There is also another EP we did which has some live tracks as well as some alternate takes on some Saosin songs, Old and NEW.
Again, maybe you hear it everyday from other bands you support, but the truth is YOU guys are the only reason we are able to do this. Bands are breaking up left and right, and somehow our tiny vessel is able to stay afloat across this raging sea. Sappy poetic metaphor: CHECK. Thanks everyone and if you find the time check out "COME CLOSE" and let us know what you think.
To wong foo Thanks for everything
Chris SAOSIN aka Julie newmar
P.s. If you come to Singapore, try the Durian fruit, its to DIE for! ;) rofl copter
