Now that NOTP's is over..., What's next? Options

[SJN1279]

Now that NOTP's is finished and Live is heading home after a month in Europe, what do you think is next for the band? After a much needed rest, do you think Live will be hitting some TV/Radio outlets to support their new single? Also, will the US/Australia/South Africa be getting a tour behind "Live at the Paradiso" or will Live focus all their energy on producing a new studio album?

I'm guessing we won't hear much from the band until after the New Year, but what do I know?

Well, if they really want a new album out in 2009, they're gonna need to start recording it by summer, which means they should probably start writing no later than this spring. I'd like to see a few tour dates here and there, but I sincerely hope they don't tour that much and instead focus on living in the studio and banging out a baller album.

I agree with Ex, they need to focus on the studio and stay off the road for a bit(save for few spot shows if they desire). They really toured the US a bit much the last couple years, and I think a break will make the band a hotter ticket once the new album drops and they tour behind it. I'm also wondering if most of the band's songs are already written.

If I was Live this would be the plan:

1. Record a new album this spring, with hopes for a late August release in the US(slower time for albums with less competition).

2. Tour as a support act for a more popular band this summer behind their new single. If they can't find a suitable band, co-headline another three band tour.

3. Tour Holland and select cities in Europe late September/early October.

4. Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa in December.

5. Do a headlining tour of the US Spring 2010
