New Chat Thread and Tour Dates!!!

ETA: Blake posted this to our incredibly awesome friends at Idolbored:

Just wanted to drop a line and say “Hello”

Much has been going on. Just got back from Norway with The Hollywood Knights, a charity organization to help raise money to fight off cancer. It was an amazing journey and hope to do more charitable work with them in the future.

On to news. In the next couple of weeks, I will have more detailed info on My Tour, a new label that is signing me and a new single, that should be out by October. Werd Up!

I just got done playing a bunch of characters in Common Markets latest music video, that should be out next month called Trouble Is. Look out for BOB BOBBERSON. Surprised

I’ll have some pics from The Meltdown and Norway up on my Myspace soon.

Thank you all for the Bday love and gifts. You are all to good to me and I just hope someday I can be so generous.

Much Love and Happiness - Blake

Weekly Chat, 8/10 - 8/16 + Pop Culture Video #4

ETA: Edited out the chart news b/c it was old.

In the fourth installment of the pop culture vids, Blake talks about Arista, the video, American Idol and Nigel.

Pop Culture Video #3

Blake talks about what he’s been listening to, how he loves record stores, and the up and downs of the record industry.

Pop Culture Video #2

Blake talks about his influences.

Blake’s Hollywood Pop Culture Video #1

You can see all the vids in the previous post, but I thought it might be fun to post them individually and let peeps discuss (or not, lol) as they see fit.

Sir Diddimus

Blake blogs about his new doggie, Sir Diddimus. Check it out here. Isn’t SDid presh? I think so! Blake stresses adopting pets from animal shelters and using tools such as petfinder.com to connect with them.

Of course there’s more. Much more:

  • He’s completed five tracks for his next album entitled Orchestral Drive-By.
  • He’s traveling to Norway with Hollywood Knights to participate in a celebrity basketball game that will raise money for the Norwegian Cancer Society.
  • He just finished shooting a vidoe with Common Market. Look for Bob Bobberson to make an appearance.
  • You can watch 11 mini-interviews here. I wonder if these were the ones at wireimage?
  • Win a Flip Camera with his siggy courtesy of Real Magic TV.

Love and Happiness!

Weekly Chat, 8/3 - 8/9

Don’t miss Blake on blogtalkradio today (8/5) at 3 pm ET.

In the meantime, enjoy this snippet of Blake’s interview with tvgasm. The full interview should be up in a few weeks. Enjoy!

Thanks, Kasia!

In other news, Johnny Nails sent out an email with the following tidbit:

We have official tour dates that begin October 1st on the East Coast!!!!! Right now, it is 27 or so dates all on the Eastern seaboard and hopefully (at least we are trying) to continue through November into the Midwest and West Coast. Why wouldn’t we do a full States tour? Talk amongst yourselves.

Not getting Johnny’s emails? Email him at johnnyontheroad@gmail.com to be added to his distribution list.



We want YOU!
