Thanks! These have been added to the list.

[RayneDove]

Here we go again ;D Only this time I can back up Lovehammers with Epic records etc. Thanks and I will.

Lovehammers forever

[radioclash]

Here's a link to Access Hollywood's forums:

forums.ibsys.com/viewmessages.cfm?sitekey=ah&Forum=709&Topic=10379

They have one titled "What's Hot & What's Not In Music: Talk about what's hot and what's not in the music industry! Hype up your favorite artist or slam the new CD you just wasted your money on. Anything that has to do with music"

You do have to register. I know this show has a new music Tuesday segment so if they hear enough chatter maybe they'll at least mention the Lovehammers on 1/24.

VH1 updated their playlist with no sign of the Lovehammers yet....

[Stiletto]

Does ANYONE know when the TREES video will air???

I wish I knew.

I used to think the stations weren't playing the video, but since it isn't up on the Lovehammers site - maybe they don't have it yet

[radioclash]

Here's another way to contact CBS's The Early Show.

Go to:
www.cbsnews.com/sections/earlyshow/main500202.shtml

Scroll to bottom and click "Contact Us" and a form will pop-up for you to fill.

Here’s one more.

I don’t know how realistic this is...but I have written to CBS asking that the Lovehammers somehow be featured on the new show Love Monkey. Has anybody watched it? The character is an A&R guy at a record label and supposed to be a music aficionado. They have musical “guest stars,” cameos by musicians, and feature different songs throughout the show.

I figure, since CBS was the station that Rock Star was on, it’s worth a shot.

The link is below. You have to go to the bottom of the page, click on “feedback,” and then select “other-not listed” from the pull-down menu to write your request.

I need to check that out - it sounds like my kind of show!

[luvinmarti]

I sent an email to the niagara fallsview casino resort tellin them to check out the boys, gave all the right names, and the website address. I'll keep doing it, maybe someday, a visit to the Avalon Ballroom? small venue, only 12 or 1600 seats, very cozy, no seat is a bad seat.
www.fallsviewcasinoresort.com, and just email them. Help me out! I'm doing what I can.

I was watching the Today Show to see the Olympic interviews in Torino, Italy and for the longest time someone was standing in the audience with a huge Bon Jovi poster - very visible - right where the camera was pointed.

Thought it was pretty smooth.

[radioclash]

Just came across this:

boards.nbc.com/bb/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=Leno&Number=28352&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=all

It is the Tonight Show messageboard. The topic is Musical Guest Wish List, and there are two posts re: Lovehammers already. So add your request to.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These instructions may be easier.

Go to www.nbc.com/boards/Leno/
and register.

Once registered go back to:
www.nbc.com/boards/Leno/

Select "Login"
After you are logged, hit "Return to Main Index" link on upper left side of page.

You should be taken back to the entire Jay Leno board.
Enter a message in the "Musical Guest Wish List" thread.

[Vicki]

wow! that took some time but I have sent request to all those listed! and I am tired... that was too much like work and we all know I don't do much of that!

anyway, I don't know what happened but I got a few returns
Conan o'brien, SNL and The Tonight Show all came back. I did go sign up for the music wish list on the Tonight Show board though. Has anyone gotten any responses as of yet? I will let you know if I hear anything.

Good work!

Did those shows' e-mails bounce back to you, or did you just get a standard response?

I haven't gotten any personal response, but I really think that all the noise we made at VH1.com didn't hurt

[Vicki]

no, they bounced back saying "undeliverable" I did get a couple of those response e-mails tahnking me for e-mailing and blah blah blah. You are right about the VH1 thing though.
