On Fire
Awakening
Meant to Live

Hello Hurricane (on speakers, this was not a live song)

We also hear from Luthien that "Hello Hurricane" is shaping up to be a good, mid-tempo song. I guess we can't describe it until we actually hear it. haha.

Here are some videos from the show gathered from across the interweb.

Now for some other news and bits and pieces.

FIRST,
Indie Vision Music reports that Switchfoot will be playing "Hello Hurricane" live on their upcoming shows. We certainly can't wait.


SECOND,

Here's a report on this year's Switchfoot Bro-Am, which we hear is once again going to be environmentally friendly. Awesome:


The Switchfoot Bro-Am will again work with San Diego-based Sustainable Waves to offer cutting-edge solar-powered sound and staging. Sustainable Waves utilizes the renewable energy sources of the sun to deliver 100% pollution-free concerts. By using solar power rather than a diesel generator or grid power, the Bro-Am will avoid emitting approximately 1,000 lbs of CO2 into the atmosphere (the equivalent of not driving your car approximately 1,100 miles or the annual sequestration of 66 trees).
