The Paperboys: News

Hola Amigos.

Happy New Year ya’ll! Hope Double 07 is treating you well so far.
We had a great ol’ time ringing in the New Year at Jazzbones in Tacoma.
We missed our dear flautist extraordinaire Geoffrey but the 4 of us made up for his absence with a lot of energy and full throated passion.

We had a stellar year and we are grateful to you, our friends, for supporting us and what we do.

Our biggest delight has come from our video being in the Top Ten countdown on MuchMoreMusic for over a month. It reached #4 a couple of weeks ago and it is still charting. You can keep us there by voting for us on their web site. http://www.muchmoremusic.com/top10/
2007 will see us globetrotting throughout America, Europe and hopefully Asia. We are planning on making another CD in the late spring with a hopeful release in the fall. The summer will be spent playing every festival that will have us.

We are taking the month of January off except for filming a video for Fragile which we will do in the next week or so. We will resume our playing schedule in mid February.

I wanted to take this opportunity to say thanks for all the encores, hooting and hollering, paying the cover charge, traveling a fair way to see us, smiling, singing along, buying our CDs, buying us a round, feeding us, giving us a place to sleep and for generally being the best fans a band could ask for.

We’ll see you out there soon.

cheers,
Tom and the P’boys

Paperboys VS Nickelback


Hey everybody,

We have some great news. Our video for 'Fall Down With You' has been added to the playlist on MuchMoreMusic (Canada's Answer to VH1, only cooler) Presently we are on medium rotation but with your help we can get the video played a lot more.

So here is your chance to help us, and at the same time knock down Nickelback and Christina Aguilera from their top ten countdown. Come on, we know you've had it with Chad Kroegers voice and Maddona's skanky videos and would much rather see us on the top 10.

The November 18th show at PW Murphy's has been cancelled by the club.

They first moved our date from November 10th to November 18th. Now they cancel the show.
Arrggghh!!!

If you have any complaints or need tickets refunded please contact the club.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Hello ya'll,

Thanks to all of you who have come out to recent shows. We have been having a blast.

There is a date change on our calendar. The show at PW Murphy's on Whidby Island has been moved from November 11 to November 18th.

Also wanted to let you know we are now fully stocked at cdbaby. We had been sold out of our latest CD 'The Road to Ellenside' but they now have plenty in stock. They will be receiving a shipment of Tenure and Dilapidated Beauty CD's soon.

We have a few days off now but we we are looking forward to seeing you later in November.

cheers amigos,

Hey ya'll,

Just a quick one to tell you a bunch of new shows have been added to the calendar including all our Europe dates for 2007.

There will be more added so check back.

Hey all,

Yes it's true, the leaves are falling and changing colour (we spell it with a 'u' up here) and all the local shops are decorating with pumpkins, ghosts and other fall decor. Here in Canada we are gearing up for Thanksgiving which falls on Monday October 9th. Why do we celebrate it a month before our neighbours to the south? I have no clue.

Before we stuff ourselves with turKey and all the fixings we will be doing a show at Tsillan Cellars in beautiful Lake Chelan on Saturday October 7th.

The rest of the month will see us in Yakima, Tacoma and Seattle. Check the tour schedule for more details.

I have been working on new songs for our next CD which we hope to record next spring. We more than likely will be playing those songs at the upcoming shows.

Hope you have a good Thanksgiving weekend.

cheers,
Tom

Hey ya'll,

Just wanted to let you know that you can now view the video for 'Fall Down With You' in the music section of this website.

We are so excited about our latest video for the song 'Fall Down With You'

The video can be viewed on Youtube by clicking this link:
http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=ThePaperboys
It can also be viewed on our MySpace profile under the video section. Just follow this link:

Please ignore the first 15 seconds of annoying bar code at the beginning of the video. It will go away once the actual video starts.

We will re-post a new copy of the video without the bar code soon.
We will also post the video right here on this website as soon as I can figure out how to do it.

cheers,
Tom

Wanted to update you on a few happenings.

First up, there has been a change to our tour schedule. The September 23 date which was originally booked for The Swiss in Tacoma has been cancelled. Our agent is looking for a replacement date in early November.

With that date now open we have booked the band at Lefty's in Salem Oregon on September 23. This will be our third time at Lefty's and we are looking forward to the show.

All other tour dates are posted on the calendar section of this site. We will be adding some Canadian dates in November and December. Check back again later for more details.

For our European friends, we have plans to return for a 6 week tour in April and May of 2007.

Many of you have been asking about the availability of our older releases. At the moment we are sold out but will be ordering Postcards (for the first time in 4 years) as well as Dilapidated Beauty and Molinos.

Currently we have Tenure and our latest Road to Ellenside available.

All CD's will be available at our shows and online through this website/cdbaby. Just follow the links.

Thanks for checking in with us. Have a good Labour Day weekend.

cheers,
t~and the p'boys
