Tuesday November 23rd -
Firstly the whole team would like to apologise for the lack of recent updates, we had a great summer and then it was back to School and University and it looks like we have all been struck down by the work bug. I would like to take this opportunity to tha
nk those people who have mailed us asking if were all okay, yes thanks were all great :) Mike and Sara usually update this page, but today I (Rick Moore) am going to have a go at it, I can usually be seen working in the European section of this page. What an amazing month it has been for news, I have tried my best to catch up on this month below.
Sunday 21st November - OLP film video for "Is Anybody Home?"
OLP have just started to film what will be the video for their second release from the album "Happiness...". The second single to be lifted from the album will be "Is Anybody Home?" and some lucky fans got to be a part of the video.
Parts of the video were filmed at Eastminster Church located at 310 Danforth, just east of Broadview. It's believed that the theme behind this video is the end of the world and that the band is still looking for a girl to play the central role in the vide
o.
Unfortunately there are a lot of angry fans out there who were told that they were to be a part of the video but never received a phone call on the day. I believe there was also a mix up about what age you had to be to participate in the video. In the end
numbers were low so Edge 102 announced the exact location of where the video was being shot.
