| cometh the hour, cometh Lowercase People Records. |
Hello, readers.
Our favorite Barron (Andy) has been working hard, as evidenced by parts 1 AND 2 of the Switchfoot in the Philippines podcast (you can download the podcasts from itunes, view them on youtube, or view them from the switchfoot.com homepage by clicking on "videos" in the lefthand column), as well as mutliple new Daily Foot entries. And yes, the Evansville entry is up, for all of you who were in this big purple venue:
Thanks, Andy!
There have been a few new blog entries from Jon on his myspace, and on the Switchfoot myspace. an excerpt from jon's latest reads,
who knew mobile would be so cool!? or that "woof-stock" would be around the corner from the venue. Yes folks, it was awesome... Dogs in halloween costumes, and humans dressing up too. A ten dollar charge to get in. For human adults, that is... I'm pretty sure the dogs got a free ride. There was a sweet breakfast place across the street and a band playing for the dogs and humans alike. I'm not sure how to tell whether or not the dogs were digging the band but I think the dogs were having a good time

Andy mentioned in the Houston DF entry that the guys worked on a Habitat For Humanity build on Saturday. Jon Schneck, a member of Relient K (current tour buddies), blogged about the event, and put up a few pics as well

Also, we found a few more pictures from when Switchfoot visited Tree Of Life School on October 18th.
View the rest HERE. (Thanks, Hailey!)
Lastly, the biography section of Switchfoot's Youtube page has some new words. Including the following:
In order to cut down on the distance between the listener and the music, we have decided to do our music independently under the banner of Lowercase People Records.
...Since music plays such a crucial role of connecting people with important issues around the world, we wanted to be a part of a label that gives directly to social justice causes, one that is more eco friendly. Lowercase People Records is our attempt to do all of this and more.
Lowercase People is our attempt to better serve this community that has supported us through the years without a middle man in the way. As a band, this is the dream of a lifetime: to have no boundaries in our songs or in the ways that they are presented. So here's what you can expect... Over the course of the next few months we are going to release several diverse projects culminating in a new switchfoot release that will redefine who we are in a new independent era.
and that's not even all that it says. Seriously, go read it HERE. (Thanks, rose!)
