29th September
Well, hello! Been about a month, but still not much major news! Well, other than the official site is about to announce some news on Mark's new album 'Sold to Sound'! So keep an eye out for it!
In other news, I am a rather happy fan at the moment! Because I am now the owner of one of those very special Mark Joseph guitars! I entered a couple of competitions to get one of them and I got one! It's so cool, I just need to tune it and then learn how to play it! Then again, I'm scared of when I pick it up I'm going to drop it, so may steal me sister's guitar or something to learn on first. lol, if you click on the picture to the right of the page, you can see what my guitar and some of my room looks like! By the way, not all of my room is that messy, I promise! =D Anyway, seeing Mark in Cambridge tomorrow, so if anyone else is going, hope you have a good time too! See ya!
24th August
Ok, got some EXCLUSIVE news for you guys! Last week, I was lucky enough to listen to a few tracks from Mark's new album, called Sold To Sound! The tracks that I did hear were called 'Don't Wanna Let You Down', 'Breaking Out' and 'Scared'! Now, if you were lucky enough to see Mark at his Gibson Guitar launch, like me (Pictures in the gallery!), then you would have heard DWLYD and Breaking Out. But for those who didn't, DWLYD is the track which Mark took the album title 'Sold To Sound' from, which Mark's official site mentioned earlier in the year! Breaking Out is, in my view, a bit of a chill out track which if Mark played live, would probably get everyone swaying and getting their lighters out. lol, 'Scared', on the other hand, was really good! It's not like the other 2 tracks at all, it's really different. It's Mark basically singing about the one thing most of us sometimes have trouble with, which is sleeping! He sings about having to count sheep, finally getting to sleep at 6am and then sings 'Mark it's time to open your eyes'. Bet some of you are sitting here thinking, I've had that problem loads. I can honestly say I had that problem for the last few days. I can't go to sleep any earlier than 2am at the moment! Either way, these tracks sound fab and can't wait to hear the finished product! By the way, I found out that the album will almost definatley be out in JANUARY 2007! I know it's a while, but trust me, if what I've heard is anything to go by, this album is going to be amazing!
In other news, Mark has now appeared on a cd, called 'Shimmy' which was released a few weeks ago! Shall put the track listing and details in the Discography today! Also, Mark will be playing a special benefit gig in the Man on the Moon/Alley Club in Cambridge on the 30th September! Go to Mark's official site to find out how to get tickets and how to get further details! He will also be playing in a charity celebrity football match for Luton Town Legends! The match will be on the 17th September, which the site claims is a Sunday, at Dunstable Town FC's ground Creasey Park! Tickets are �5 and kids are half price AND the kick off is 3pm! That's all I know at the moment, but if you're in the area go down and cheer Mark on!
Anyway, that's it for now! Anymore news I shall tell you as soon as I get it! =]
21st July
Well, nothing mega to report at the moment! The single, Bringing Back Those Memories, was eventually released but only on iTunes as the normal version of the song and a live version! So, go buy it! It only costs 79p a track! Also, changed the picture on the front of the site. It's now of Mark with his snazzy scooter! He had this back in May at his guitar launch, which I went to! He performed new songs, some old favourites and Moody Blues! Best song of his! Got some pic's, which myself and Han took! Also, the launch was for (surprise surprise!) some new guitars which Gibson were making. But not just any guitars! They were special Mark Joseph BBTM England one's! Have a look at one by looking at the right of the page! They look snazzy, eh? Well, there are only 40 of these officially in existance and you can win one in various magazines and on Mark's site! So, have a look on his official site for more details! Well, that's all, folks! (That was for you, D!) More updates over the next 6 weeks, I promise!
27th May
Ok, it's now officially half term for us, so hopefully there should be LOTS of updates on the site in the next week or so!
Firstly, the guestbook is almost certainly going to be SHUT, as I keep getting these sites trying to advertise in it. If you keep getting adverts sent to your email advertising stuff you'll know what I mean! And I'm not talking about 'Go buy the new Mark Joseph single!' stuff either!
Also, been adding a few photo's! Thanks to Han and the Parklife website for them! I reccomend having a look at the pictures that Han took on the 19th Feb last year as they are VERY good!
Also, Mark news! AT LAST! lol, It's been a while since any new Mark news came up! Firstly, the single is coming out on the 12TH JUNE, not the 29th May as it once was! Also, the video is on music channel, B4, sometimes! If you have Sky, the channel number is 357! Also, Mark has a MySpace account! So, if you want to add him, look at the links page on the site and it's on there! So have a look! You can also see my MySpace account if you REALLY want to. lol
Also, just a reminder that I have the email thing for my website so I can keep you up to date with the latest Mark Joseph gossip! So PLEASE sign up! lol, I don't mean to sound desperate, but hey! I'm bored at I woke up about 3 hours ago (got up at 1-ish and it's now 4-ish. lol) so yea! Sign up sometime!
27th February
If anyone reading this was listening to97.6 Chiltern FM around 8:45 this morning, you won't need to read this. You've already heard this!
Basically, Mark is re-releasing Bringing Back Those Memories in time for the World Cup! I doubt this will be the official World Cup single, but it would be rather awesome if it was! If anyone hears about if it will be official or not, email me as soon as possible please! :)
Anyway! Gaz from Gaz and Karen in the morning said that yesterday he was in a field in Leighton Buzzard (not sure where exactly! Might email Gaz for a review thing of the video shoot or something!) and they, along with Mark, who I'm sure was there, played some footie! How fun?! lol, Anyway, I'll try and tell you anymore news I get on this and anything else that may pop in the next couple of weeks and months!
One last thing! On the main page of the site, I have set up a sign up page where you can get the lastest gossip from me! I'm gonna start using this when some big promotional stuff comes up so that will probably be around the release of BBTM. Anyway, see you lot soon! Fingers crossed this single will do well!
