The Rodneys mp3.com page has something new! Download "EGA Jam," the first single from Not One Cloud, and then tell all your friends about it. Buzz buzz buzz. And while you're at it, spread the word on the Hot Rodney show at NDP November 26, if you feel like it. Thanks Street Team!
 
Due to overwhelming demand, two Al shots have been added to pics. Go nuts, you weirdos.
 
Oh, and we've broken 4000 hits. Are we having fun yet?

Hey sports fans, check this out... A glowing review of the new Hot Rodney record.
 
The new record is called Not One Cloud and will arrive this week! Ask your favorite Rodney for a copy or drop us an e-mail to get yours. Eleven big new songs, just $5! Shades of amber, a hint of oak. Quiet evenings melt into frozen months. Are you still with me? Am I still with me? Our eyes meet and off we go. Here's the final tracklist.
 
1. EGA Jam
2. Selfish Invitation
3. Someday
4. Let Me Know
5. Ballad
6. On Such a Perfect Night
7. There For Me
8. Chains
9. Dark and Heavy Blues
10. If I Had Time
11. Funkadelic Jam
 
And finally, from Nick with love, for your own good:
The question of the week is posed by The Rodneys for a reason... we want to know!  All information, opinions, news, and ideas are welcomed into the message board forum.  Got a story... let's hear it.  Got a cold, let us show compassion.  Got a question of your own that's been bothering you?  This is the place to pose it!  If you don't like the question of the week, make up your own, and we'll answer it!   We love reading guestbook posts, but really we gain insights by reading what other people have to say.  So give us some thoughts... inspire us.  Leave it anonymous, it gives you license to say anything you want.  Responses don't come to you, they come to the board.  So let's hear it!

I have news for you! Hot Rodney will be playing a two-year anniversary show at the Notre Dame Prep cafeteria on Wednesday, November 26! That is the night before Thanksgiving. You all will be home so no excuses. This will be our first show since summertime and will be really huge! Expect the unexpected! Danny Hollenkamp is involved so you know it's gonna be 100% classy. Especially if the guys can find their tapestry. Oh, and this show also will celebrate the release of the new record, which will arrive October 30! The time and other little details will come soon. Keep your calendars free, boys and girls. Ben Whybrew will be there. How nice for you!
 
Quick updates on current happenings: Jim's been producing records for his friends and taking four-hour naps almost daily. He's also been playing guitar a lot! Nick had his first a capella show last weekend, which got great reviews from Duke. His nickname is Boots now. He is still Italian. Al is leading the county in sacks. Greg and Andrew should get on AIM more often and keep Bill posted! Jimmy, Andrew, and Nick have all been working on demos for the third record, either at Jim's home studio or in Nick's dorm room. Ben'n'Bill are cooking something up for Thanksgiving and it smells good so far.
 
Oh my. I think that's all for now.

Two new pictures have surfaced on our Pics area. Try Other Live Pics and the ever-expanding Art section (check the bottom of that one). The sketch is from the brain and pen of NG.
 
The company tells us the new CD will be ready for sale in three weeks, so start your egg-timers.

Hey everyone, it's Sunday and Homecoming has past, and we're all coming down - for some of us, physically from the sky; for all of us, figuratively in our heads. A fast weekend it was. I hope that many of you got to see half of Hot Rodney play at Pizzapopolis on Friday night. Nick and Jim debuted a few new songs, a couple of which have been written in past weeks via Internet correspondence. A lot of familiar faces. It was cold and raining, but what a beautiful night.
 
Also, I just noticed that we've broken not only 3000 hits, but 3500. This is incredible. Our new album will be out in just a few weeks now and hopefully you guys will still be interested then. It'll be worth the wait, I promise.
