Hey people, just a quick one to let y’alls know that VR will be rockin out at the waterfront acoustic-style this coming Sunday night, together with WMUM pals the Fire Fight.

Come catch a whole bunch of re-worked originals and our favourite cover songs.

And remember, when VR play acoustic, we never play it the same way twice! But mainly because we forgot how we did it the last time…

We’re on at 7.30pm, and the Fire Fight are on at 8.45pm. For more info on the 22 Feb show, as well as the other shows happening in this weekend’s series, check out the event page at http://www.goodenglish.org.sg/site/index.php?option=com_events&task=view_detail&agid=135&year=2009&month=02&day=20&Itemid=4



Live N Loaded Videos!

We’re still aching all over! But our mummies are proud that we FINALLY got onto television!

EDIT: New videos uploaded – now in glorious STEREO!

Stay tuned for our next show at the Esplanade on 22 Feb. More details coming up real soon. Plus! Sign up on our mailing list, or add us on Facebook to find out how you can win some exclusive free merch including a limited-edition Vertical Rush tee by Revoltage!



Another review…

…and its more kind words, courtesy of MTV Asia. Here’s the skinny…

“After 4 years of hard work in the studio, the band has come up with an answer for all fans that just cannot get enough of their live magic… if you weren’t a fan of Vertical Rush before, you probably would be, after Of Real Dreams.”
Full Text: http://www.mtvasia.com/Review/CD/C20090130001760.html

We’re really grateful for all the great reviews… and we’re truly humbled that people out there enjoy our little ditties.

Hope all this translates into people picking up the album – because the most important critic is *you*!! And really, we just wanna share our music, and our love for what we do, with everyone out there.

Help spread the word, and spread the love. And as always, support music made in Singapore.
