Alter Bridge News 11/30/09

Hello Alter Bridge Nation,

Lots of news this week so let’s get started. First, we are happy to announce that all of our International fans can now pre-order our first DVD: Alter Bridge - Live From Amsterdam. You can check out previews by going to our Myspace page at www.myspace.com/alterbridge and watching the embedded videos. You can even click on some of them and watch them on Youtube in HD. Speaking of Youtube… make sure to check out the rare, live videos we have up on our channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/AlterBridge571#p/u.

The only place our International fans can pre-order the DVD is from Amazon UK. The DVD should play on any player. The release date for our DVD is set for next Monday, December 7th. Here is the direct link for all International fans to Pre-order http://www.amazon.co.uk/Alter-Bridge-Amsterdam-Amazon-Exclusive/dp/B002RKD8CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1259606852&sr=8-1

Remember, the USA and Canada version of the DVD is being sold now, only at Amazon.com. Here is the direct link to purchase… http://www.amazon.com/Alter-Bridge-Live-Amsterdam/dp/B002RKD8CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1259608073&sr=8-1

Now that the business is out of the way we can get to the information. Myles recently posted on his Blog about his solo project and the upcoming “Alter Bridge III” writing session. You can read his blog entitled: “I’m in the studio making my record”, on his Myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/myleskennedyofficial.

Mark also posted a message to his fans on the www.fret12.com forums. He talks about what he has been up to recently. Please feel free to sign up and participate in the community there. Many musicians have joined the fold, so to speak.

Lastly, Mark recently did a long, honest interview with www.ultimate-guitar.com that encompasses everything that has occured in the last year entitled: “I Always Want to Create Music and Do the Best I Can”. You can read the full interview here… http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/interviews/interviews/mark_tremonti_i_always_want_to_create_music_and_do_the_best_i_can.html

We’re all looking forward to next week, when Myles, fresh from recording his solo project, comes down to Florida (and Brian comes up from Costa Rica) and we can all continue the writing process on our third album. We’ll be working on that until the holiday season arrives, at which point we will spend some time with our families. We’ll keep you updated once the writing process continues, next week.

Oh, and we saw a request from Activision to have our song “Ties That Bind” used on a downloadable package for the upcoming video game, Guitar Hero 6, so look for that in the future.

 Keep rocking,

 Alter Bridge

    Eso es grandioso amigos
    Mark, don’t stop of playing your guitar never!!!!

  3. Robb O Says:

    THANK YOU! I just let out a sigh of relief after seeing Creed was back together. I was concerned that AB broke up. I must say you guys, along with Sevendust are my two favorite bands out there. Not a creed fan at all. I find Scott S unbearable (sorry, just my opinion). But AB’s music is moving, adrenaline pumping and thought provoking. With all the crappy music that has been coming out, it’s great to see the few good bands still making great music!
    I look forward to you guys playing upstate NY soon!

  4. Valentin jotterand Says:

  7. kirstenm Says:

    Already got the DVD and it is great. So glad you guys are still together. I was really happy to see Creed get back together ( went to jones beach this summer. great show) But I was really afraid Alter bridge broke up. You guys are amazing. Please don’t ever stop making music.

  27. Venuciti 87 Says:

    i was going across the videos from your concerts on youtube, i honestly think you should do a secret, bonus track and have it be Kashmir, cant believe it was 4 years ago at the Download Festival but i think everyone would enjoy that ! cant wait for the new record i think i have watched live in amsterdam at least 4 or 5 times a week introducing more and more people to your music

    take care and Godbless

  28. Hexen666 Says:

    I second Zac, you guys need to release some tracks for Rock Band as well as Guitar Hero! I would love to try and emulate Miles and Mark on guitar and vocals - reckon easy would be my max with you two though! AB all the way!

  29. Neil A. Says:

    Alter Bridge Come to Chile…
    AB NATION FOREVER!

  30. Ben Says:

    Funny. A couple of weeks after ordering the R1 version (and hoping for the best) the announcement about an R2 is posted. Not that I’m bothered, my Xbox isn’t phased at all and has been playing me the awesome DTS mix for the past week!!! Look forward to seeing AB in the UK next autumn, sorry fall, Newcastle upon Tyne, don’t forget to bring Logan!!

  31. Sparman Says:

    YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! not only am i excited for the third album, BUT KETS GET DOWN WITH GUITAR HERO!! IM SO FUCKIN STOKED!!! ONE LAST HOPE, TO RISE AND BREAK AWAY, ABOVE THE FADED LINE, WAY BEYOND THE TIES THAT BIND!!!

    Hopefully they get thier shit together and put a few more songs on GH!!!

  32. drumrguy79 Says:

    So looking forward to some new Alter Bridge!! And the Amsterdam DVD is at the top of my Christmas list! Thank God for you guys! Life would be a total drag without you and the GREAT music you bring!

  33. Luiz Araujo Says:

    Please come to Brazil, you guys are amazing!

  34. Jay Says:

    The DVD is awesome. Wish I could have seen it in person. I have one request to the band though…Can you put “New Way to Live” on AB3. That song is becoming one of my favorite songs and it’s frustrating that I can only hear it while watching the DVD. Maybe the AB Nation posts enough requests; the guys might consider this a track for the new album.

  35. Norranna Says:

    I can’t tell how this makes me happy!!! I’ve been visiting this site since my boyfrien told me about Alter Bridge, just when Blackbird was released, looking foward to the new album, and to know that it’s on the way, and very soon I’ll get to know the new songs, makes me so happy!! Thank you for the news!!!!! From a brazilian fan that wishes you the best and a happy new year!!!!
