The Family is back!!!

Seen this over on the GBN MySpace page and now it's on Housequake too. This was Jesse's post:

As some of you know, I run the GBNetwork My Space page (www.myspace.com/girlbrosnetwork) and we help promote Wendy and Lisa. Well today I heard from Susannah and St Paul and they wanted me to let everyone know that the FAMILY has reunited! They are putting out a new record and are going out on the road and they will "work the family record the way it should have been worked awhile back."

We will put out all the details as soon as they become available. Anyone who caught them at the Family Jamm knows, that this group sounds better than ever and this is going to be A LOT OF FUN to watch unfold! A big WELCOME BACK to the Family!!!!"

This is going to be amazing!

AAAAAarrrrrggggghhhhh!!!! How fucking awesome!!! Been waiting for the news to make it here from the GBN page!!!

So, so, so excited about the prospect. I was not a fan of the Family until I saw them perform at the Family Jamm. They blew me away. Can't wait to hear the fruits of their reunion and to see them live again.

A great kickoff to 2007.

Are you kidding me?!? I'd be first in line to hear Eric play his butt off any day, but the whole band? Awesome! BRING IT ON!

Oh that is so cool they are going to perform again.!!! Its about time. I hope that they get enough support to do a mini-tour across the USA as it said in that message that they are going to be on the road so I am assuming that they are going to perform outside of Cali as well. I am definately going to buy their album.

great news !!
Thanks

This is awesome news!!! New music, tour....and the group back together. It can't get much better than that!!

This is good news all we need now is the time and Prince and we will have a Triple treat tour!!!!

This is just about the best musical news I've heard in ages !!!


A "Family" Reunion !!!!

I must say they sounded DAMN good at the Family Jamm.

the did rock out at the Family Jamm. Looking forward to this!

I hope it's the original lineup as well. I would love to hear Paul do NC2U live! And I wanna here Desire live as well. Hell, I wanna hear Mutiny and High Fashion!

Oh my god!! I hope that if that don't come to Chicago, that they come to Minni!!!

i think they know enough to stop in The D if they want to connect with their fans again. hope they have old and new material for sale.

I was just in the tub thinking about how awesome The Family was. This is good news.

Detroit awaits.....

Is Prince involved? If not, !

Sounds like they're implying that Prince might not be involved (it almost could be interpreted that they *don't* want him to). . .but who knows?

rumor has it Jerome has left The Time, hmmmmm

For all of you that check out MySpace,the official MySpace page for the Family is at www.myspace.com/allthewayvogue. This is where you will hear all the latest first, courtesy of the GBN!

When asked about that reunion with Melvoin, Prince grows wistful. "She plays acoustic guitar with me better than almost anyone. "The opportunity came up and her name was the first to come to mind. I'm looking for things to juice me too."

Alright! This is awesome news!


I would love to hear what new music they'll have in store as well as see them play it.



But I wonder what Prince would have to say about this.

"They are putting out a new record and are going out on the road and they will "work the family record the way it should have been worked awhile back."

Uh... okay. Is this a slam at Prince? Um, Prince created The Family. Prince wrote them their one and only hit... so... Nice way to announce a "come back". Sounds kinda bitter to me.

...and another thing... why is this front page news? A sticky would have sufficed.
