i read in a magazine that the vines were on a "break" because of craighs problems .in this true or is it just a rumor? and does someone know anything about any new albums? thanks.

that not touring for a while if thats what you mean. apparently crraigs working on material for a new album but it prob wont be out for ages.

that`s shit.but why do you think it won`t be out for ages? saw your profile...conor oberst...which ones best of i`m wide awake or lifted? i love lifted...its brilliant

i think its because of craigs condition, they dont wanna rush him or something. you like bright eyes!!!! thats brilliant!!!um lifted was actually the first one i ever got, ive got them all now but that was the first so probaly lifted because it had such big arrangements, bigger thatn im wide awake. i have to go now but it was great to meet you! you prob wont see me round again for a while coz only my dads got the net and i live with my mum, i use my auntys sometimes though, also i talk too much, bye.

Yeah Craig is definately working on stuff...so it's not like the band isin't doing anything. Apperantly it's all sounding really great. But yeah they are very big on not rushing Craig or putting pressure on him. This is really good becuase that could make him highly uncomfortable, plus I'm sure he's not ready to do any sort of touring to promote things at all. They won't do extensive touring again though. I think it's good they are laying off him, I mean we don't want anything bad to happen, right?

i also heard they are working on new stuff, but they really dont have to hurry, because i'm still listening "winning days" every single day. i cant get enough of it

oh yeah and i listen to "highly evolved" every second day

I´m always listening to The Vines too...
I have HE, WD and all the demos and that stuff...
I think I´ll never get bored of them
But I hope the third record´ll be awesome

I really like your profile name cool band!!!

Personally, i think that the break is a good thing, they get to work hard and put out a good solid effort of an album. Instead of trying to bounce right back.

Is your name 'Mew' from Pokemon?

Personally, I tend to think that they are not on a break at all. Rather, they are hiding from us after having visited this entertaining (yet frightening) forum.

Apparently theyll never tour the way they did for Highly Evolved, and perhaps even the way they toured for Winning Days. They didnt tour too much, but considering managements worries and the mental state of Craig while on tour, theyll only be doing shows in the motherland(australia) with few shows out-of-country.

YES.
Time ensures better quality than that instant-record-just-add-six-notes crap.
