The Last Act

TLA Needs YOU!

Jeff — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 21:55:11 +0000

We are posting 2 songs to the CJAY92 contest to open for Bon Jovi. Now this sure would do great things for the band I would think! Plus TLA would really rock the ‘dome before Bon Jovi takes the stage! So hit this page here or if you can’t see the link, copy and paste this into your address bar in your browser:

and put your comments about TLA to BURY the crap that is up there! Note: I believe you need to select that you “Like” the page before you can post.

We need you to help make a difference in the music landscape currently in the market right now by getting TLA out there, and here is a great chance!

There will be a FAN CLUB ONLY re-release of “Gilded Justice” from the last CD available for free download this month. This version has the current lineup of guys redoing the song, as well as a bunch of enhanced things over and above the last recording. This will be available shortly through a secure download for a very limited time.

BUT you gotta be part of the official Fan Club to get it! You can sign up here: http://www.thelastact.com/fan-club/. NOTE: this is a DOUBLE-OPT IN list…meaning you have to respond to an email after signing up to actually be joined. So after you sign up, go check your JUNK MAIL folder for the mail you need to respond to.

UP YUR ACT!

Andrew Whiting Resigns

Jeff — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 21:35:29 +0000

Andrew Whiting has resigned as drummer for “the Last Act”. We all wish him well in his new direction in life and all the best in his future endeavors.

This Saturday @ DogPound Rodeo Grounds will be the last gig with Andrew and if you wanna see it, you gotta be there! Hope to see you all come out!

Ads start!

Jeff — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 17:16:53 +0000

The disc is on schedule for release and the ads have started for the Olds gig, March 6, 2010 @ Tracks Pub! The commercials have started all over central Alberta, from just south of Edmonton to just north of Calgary on Rock 104 FM…quite the radius! You can check it out here.

Those who pre-ordered the disc will get it first, and it will be a Limited Edition (i.e. complete with signatures from the band). If you are one of these people, expect this in your mailbox Thursday or Friday (March 4 or 5).

Since some of the band is going on vacation right after the gig, all re-releases of old songs have been put on hold. They are still coming, just not until April.

Hope to see you at the gig! If you are wondering about the details, you can check them out here.

Fan Club Only Special Coming Up

tla_admin — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 05:01:59 +0000

This one is to all our loyal fans: as of next week we will be re-recording two songs of the last album ” No Good Deed…” with the new lineup and it will be available to the fan club ONLY sometime in March this year. The two songs are “Full Volumage” and “Gilded Justice”. Both Jason and Andrew love these songs because they think they encompass the essence of what The Last Act is all about and want to re-produce them.

You gotta be in the fan club to get these songs. Join the Fan Club here

Disc Almost Done…Again

Jeff — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 20:48:56 +0000

The new disk has been completely remixed from the ground up. It is a night and day difference..quite amazing actually. The final step is getting it mastered in Vancouver and we have the right guy for that job – Bud Bremner from Coastal Mastering. One week till the final master – can’t wait!!! Then it’s onto manufacturing and then…the final disc! Will be ready for the CD release party March 6, 2010 @ Track’s Pub in Olds!

Incidentally, Bud is the guy who helped us make the disc the work of art it is now. Thanks a lot Bud! This disc owes it’s “pretty” to you! =D

Merry Christmas!

Results from The Distillery Nov 25, 2009

Hey,

What it all means is there will be the CD Release Party and benefit concert on Jan 23, 2010. This will be a full show, so hope to see you all there!

As Jeff posted on the TLA FaceBook site on Thursday morning:
Hey guys! If you were there you know! If you weren’t well…you missed one HELL OF A SHOW! and I am not just saying that! It was so good that the bar owner, who sees at least 5 bands every week, dropped what he was doing to come over and check out the band because he was so BLOWN AWAY!

After the show, he immediately booked the band for the first available date (actually the second, the first was too soon in Jan) for a full night! Saturday Jan 23, 2010 with the opening band “the Turretts” (these guys are REALLY good….can’t believe they are opening for TLA!). This is a combo benefit event for the homeless (TLA’s idea) and the OFFICIAL CD RELEASE PARTY! WOOHOO! This also opens several other larger venues for the guys so…big things are a-comin! =)

Still reeling from last night….incredible…excellent…did I mention awesome? UP YER ACT!

Wow. And yes, it was that good.
This show will be Saturday Jan 23, 2010 @ the Distillery and is also the official CD release party for “Still Standing”. The band takes the stage @ 10:00-ish PM for a full night of music. We are still confirming the opening band, but it looks like it may be “The Turrettes”. These guys are good, so any time you would want to show up on Saturday night you would find a good band on stage.

Still trying to get something pinned for December (at least 1 thing). We will keep you posted.
