We Are Looking Ahead and it Looks Good

Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

The dust of 2009 has settled and the new year is well under way. We have made our plan for 2010, and we hope that all of you will help us make it come to fruition. Here is what you can expect from Versus The Universe this year.

First… We are going to go back in to the studio. We had a great time doing the Tragic Life of Karl Korbin, and now it is time for the follow up. There will be new material on this album that will blow you away. When you have it, you will love it. And feel free to let us know if there are any of our newer tunes you seen us perform that you’d like to hear on the album!

Second… We are going to give you more shows in more places. Our goal is to do our damndest to give you every opportunity to see us live. We are currently working to get into more venues throughout the area and beyond. Maybe you’ll even see us on some of those fantastic festivals that happen around here all the time.

Third… We are going to get some radio play. A new album means people need to hear it. What better way for people to hear it than to be on the radio? We hope all of you will be blowing up the phones of our local rock stations asking for some VTU.

And finally… We are always going to be giving you the best in local, regional, and even national original music. We can’t do it without all of you that are firmly behind us, and we hope you will continue this ride with us. Tell your friends, tell your family, tell your co-workers… VTU is the band to see, and we promise to keep it that way.

Remember… Support original music! We will be seeing all of you at our next show not far away.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all of our Friends and Fans!  It’s a brand new year and a brand new decade and we can’t wait to rock the hell out of both!  We have had great success over 2009 with the release of our first EP, and with the support of all of you!

2009 was an awesome year for VTU thanks to Gil of Gil’s Bar and Grill and Kevin Blair of Hell’s Kitchen for always having a venue for VTU to rock out in, all the bands we have shared the stage with including Blackout Seven, Deadpenny, The Tipping Point, City Voices and The Gloom… And of course our fans and friends.

For 2010 we are looking forward to writing new material and expanding our reach to even more places.  We would love your support to get us on local festivals for 2010 like Harborfest, American Music Festival, and ECSC.  We can’t do it without you and we hope you’ll continue coming out and rocking with us in this new year.

Yet another good show!

Thanks to everyone that made it out to Frankie’s Place last night and rocked with us till the wee hours.  We had a fun time playing for you as we always do!

We’d also like to send a thank you out to Frankie’s Place for recently starting to have shows at their establishment, and giving love to the local music scene.  It’s a great room to play and we really hope to play there again and see more shows there in the future.  Special thanks to everyone that came up and jammed with us while played.  Grey, we love having you up there with us anytime…  And to the gentleman that came up and played hand drums with us, thank you very much.  We don’t usually do spontaneous jams live, and last night was awesome.

We hope everyone can make it out to our next show on August 29th!

New Show July 25th!

Monday, July 20th, 2009

Come see us rock out at Frankie’s at 1080 Nimmo Pkwy, Virginia Beach, Virginia 23454 on July 25th! That’s this Saturday! We will of course have copies of The Tragic Life of Karl Korbin for sale for $10. Hope to see all of you there!

Thanks For Last Night

Sunday, June 21st, 2009

We’d like to thank everyone that made it out to Gil’s last night for the birthday bash.  We had a blast, and it was by far one of the best shows at Gil’s we’ve ever been a part of!  We also want to again thank Gil for inviting us to be on what was one hell of a local line up featuring Revery, New Skin and Jam Pain Society.  We packed the place out from start to finish.

That brings us to our next show happening this Friday, June 26th, at Hell’s Kitchen in Norfolk.  As you know, we are releasing our debut CD called The Tragic Life of Karl Korbin.  We will have the CD’s there for sale, so everyone should make it there.  It will be a kick ass show featuring all of our original material and our favorite songs and maybe a few special guests.  We can’t wait to get the CD in to your hands.  We will see you on Friday!
