A Chance to Perform, a Chance to Give Back

Hello everyone,

We have big news! We finally got all the info concerning the show at the Key Club in Hollywood.

Feu will be taking part of the "Next Big Thing Tour" which will be held on Saturday December 4th. It's an all ages show and tickets are $15. Time is not set yet; it all depends on the amount of tickets we sell. It could go as early as 11am and as late as midnight.

More info on www.nextbigthingtour.com

RAFFLE:

We'll be doing a raffle for the chance of getting a free signed copy of our album, along with the chance of being in a music video we'll be shooting this year.

Here is how it will work:

- Buy one ticket, get one raffle ticket [buy two, get two]

- Buy three tickets, get five raffle tickets [buy four, get six]

- Buy five tickets, get ten raffle tickets [buy more and we'll love you forever]

MUSIC FOUNDATION:

Since we have the chance of making profit if we were to sell a certain amount of tickets, we decided to give half of it to a local music foundation, the Mark Daniel Flores Music Foundation.

Our GOAL is to sell 75 tickets. We want to aim high to be able to give more to the foundation.

Please support us and the foundation by purchasing a ticket or making a donation. Your support will be greatly appreciated and will help music students from our local community.

A bit about the MDFMF:

The Mark Daniel Flores Music Foundation was founded by the parents of Mark Daniel, a close friend of mine, who passed away after a motorcycle accident. They have been involved with the local high schools of Baldwin Park, giving scholarships to dedicated music students, and taking part in city events. They'll be hosting a golf tournament early next year to fund-raise money for the scholarships.

Thank you all for the support. We hope to see you there.

Inspiration

Within the past month, I've been blessed to be able to attend great shows. Music is a source of inspiration that will never stop growing.

It started off with Muse, and it is easily said that it was the best show I've ever lived. Having seen them twice before already, including in Europe where they are praised like gods, I had plenty to compare to.

I admire their musical genius, their musicianship, their passion and the fact that they're such cool rockstars.

The Staples Center did them good. The stage was epic.

I wish he had played more songs on piano though... I still love Matthew though. To think guitar was not even his first instrument...

To bad I had to miss on Passion Pit. But that'll be for next time.

The cool thing was also being able to watch them with the band mates. A cool memory to add to the list.

Then there was Jimmy Eat World. I had always liked their music but had never gotten into them that much. I was curious to find out how they'd be live. I must admit it took me halfway through the show to get into it, but they sure knew how to end it on a high note.

It was at The Wiltern, one of my favorite venues. Needless to say it was a cool show.

And then, there was The Temper Trap. I had fallen for "Sweet Disposition" like many have, but buying their album showed that wouldn't be the only song I'd like.

Their opening acts were quite interesting; they were mostly electro. It was cool seeing that kind of music being performed live. You should check them out: The Hundred in the Hands and Delphic.

The Temper Trap were pretty cool. I'm amazed by how high the singer can sing with that vibrato. Their instrumental jams was what caught me. Pretty original the way they pulled them off.

It's definitely a band I'd recommend checking out when they come back to the US again.

Launching New YouTube Account

Hello everyone,

before letting loose of our next upcoming video, we figured we'd take the opportunity to stop the confusion and create a YouTube account of our own.

I had been using my personal YT account, "BelgianKid," on which there are other videos that are not related to the band. I had to end this fiasco and make it easy for everyone.

Feu, of course, was taken already. So we created a "FeuMusic" account.

If you wanna be the first ones to get hands [or should I say ears and eyes] on our next video, go to our channel and subscribe!

In the meanwhile, here's Neon Trees' "Animal"

"Unstoppable" Available Online

4 months after its original release, I'm excited to announce that Feu's "Unstoppable" album is out on iTunes, Amazon, Zune, and many more. If you are unable to pick a CD from us personally signed, you can now buy the digital version online.

To find it, type Feu Unstoppable and you should be able to find it.

Please spread the word!
