Bulletproofskin in Mexico

July 4, 2007

A fan letter, from Mike, heard Institute and Bulletproofskin being played..

Dude, so check this out… so I havn’t heard of Institute since some small club tour they did couple years ago.. I saw the Roxy show in LA… Well I’m pulling an all nighter trucking through Texas and while bombing down the interstate at 2AM I pick up what sounds like Gavin on a radio station… so I listen, identify as bulletproof skin…

But here’s the kicker…

The rock station in JUAREZ MEXICO!!!!!!!!! plays Institute, the DJ was speaking all spanish and I was fricken blown away… they havn’t played Institute in Los Angeles Since like 2006 and here it is on Mexican radio in the desert at 2AM!

anyways, that is my random disconnected story.

message from Gavin Rossdale

sent through e-mail

“Hey everyone

It’s been some time. how are you?

I wanted to let you know what I have been working on and what’s happening.
First off-
I am setting up my new website at Gavinrossdale.com (not live yet but coming very soon)

And I am about to go in and record my first solo record.
I am working with the producer bob rock.

We have a great band to do the record and we start next week.

We’ll do half the record in la and the other half in hawaii,where he lives-on the north shore.

So as you can imagine I’m pretty excited about that.

I have spent all of last year writing-and
Here goes.

I have also done the theme for a new show on fox
Which starts on sunday called
DRIVE (8pm est/pst)
That song will be on the record and a taste of what’s to come.

I know I’ve taken silence to a new quiet but
You knew I was up to something.

Kingston is magic by the way.

So-
Check out the new song-
Obviously it is only a small part of it but
You’ll get the vibe.

Otherwise
We’re going to be getting the website going.

And we’ll be making big sound.
Thankyou to all of you who came out and supported INSTITUTE-
I really enjoyed being in that band.

Chris is making this record with me.

Stay tuned

more power to you

Gavin”
