IRC CHANNEL FOR CONGRESSORS
August 31- The conversation isn't exactly tame, and the people aren't all that great (j/k). So if you are into IRC and you have nothing better to do, why not stop by the undernet at #ClumsyCongress and chat with us?

SUMMERSAULT: THE REPORT
August 29- Well we are having a little trouble with the reports for Summersault right now. You may have to wait a little longer. We have pictures and a clip of yourself all ready and set to go. All we really need is more fan reviews. Basically if you were at the Barrie show E-mail us with what bands you saw and a review for whichever one you want (you can do them all if your ambitious). You get put in the draw for OLP bootlegs. Its that easy! The report will definitely be up on Monday. Sorry about the messup.

NEW SECTIONS
August 27- We've been updating like mad lately. Here are the lates fruits of our efforts. After much thought we've decided to add the Our Lady Peace audio/visual archive to the site. This will basically be your place to go to hear audio & visual clips of OLP specials and interviews from Television and Radio. Please welcome Chris (also known as RaineyDayz) to the OLP.NET family. In addition to that we will also be adding the archive of reports that we got from shows on the 1998 US tour. This was going to be called the CONCERT CHRONOLOGY in the hopes of archiving the setlist from every OLP show a la 5h's coverage of another band. It will be known as the TOURWATCH ARCHIVE. The Special Presentation section will be referred to as Tourwatch, which will open periodically as Our Lady Peace tour the new album. thanks for the coninued support, be on the lookout for a full Summersault report Saturday right here OLP.NET!
 
DIZZY FROM SUMMERSAULTING
August 26- Well, we've returned from Summersault in Barrie alive and intact! Stacy and I have finally met and it was quite an occasion to meet. Our Lady Peace did in fact play a new song. We have sources who call the song "Yourself". We all made some new friends, (some from Peterborough and some from the corporate monster affectionately termed SONY). We have sounds pictures setlists and more all coming up in the next few days in addition to some confirmed rumors. However, we are all tired and one of us has their world tour planned out for the next few weeks, so its going to take a while to get everything up and in order. We appreciate your patience and assure you it will all be worth it! in regards to the site you can expect to see a concert chronology in the near future (derived from our loyal and dependable summer reporters) and we have also added a new section entitled: "Affording the View". We thought this was appropriate, because we hear from fans every day about their views of shows and band issues, and we would like our chance to be heard, being the webmasters of a site has to have some perks. Also Be on the lookout for the Summersault

CATCH-UP

Canadians on the east coast will finally get to hear Eternal Life LIVE (apart from the lucky bastards in Sault Ste. Marie). Also more bands have been added to the dates at Summersault heres the lineup for each city:

Just Added:
Parlee Beach- Moist/Sloan/Bucket Truck/Treble Charger/BTK/Julie Doran/Joy Drop/
St.John's- Moist/Sloan/Bucket Truck/Treble Charger/Drive/Gearbox/Hung Up/Liz Band
Barrie- Eve 6/Bionic/Harvey Danger/Johnny Favourite Swing Orchestra

The Memorabilia section is also up now. If you have anything to submit please don't hesitate to send it in. Although its a little skimpy right now we hope to have it overflowing with in a few months. Barring any unforseen News Bombshell this may be our last update until after the 23rd. We are still searching for Summersault reporters! For those who have signed up thank you, for those who haven't please do. More info this way.

WATCH FOR FALLING GRAPHICS
August 14 - Well here is part of the new look OLP.NET! We will be renovating the next week or so. I hope everyone likes the changes we are making. We have realized our viewing abilities in browsers under 4.0 are very limited and we want to fix that. We will be offereing two main pages one for newer browsers and one for older browsers. However you won't be given a choice between the two, as soon as you type in our url a script application will determine what browser you're in and take you to the appropiate page. Thus making OLP.NET an enjoyable experience for all. I hope you all can enjoy the changes and give us a bit of a break while we fix things up a little.
NEW SECTION COMING SOON
August 12 - In our ongoing effort to become your one-stop OLP shop on the web, we will be adding a memorabilia section. We already have a substantial amount of ticket stubs and images already, but it wouldn't be complete with out all of yours. So at this time we ask that anyone with setlists ticket stubs broken drum sticks etc. from an OLP show to please send them in. We have already gto some from the european shows, and we are anxious for other images. You will be given full credit of course. Please dn't confuse this for a call for pictures. Ticket Stups signed covers etc. please! Let OLP know your not only great fans , but your pack-rats also.
("pack-rats" Stacy's word not mine I swear)
