	NEWS October 18, 2007 -- It’s been quite some time since we last updated this section of the website… to bring you up to speed; we’re currently in Newcastle, England, on our last week of touring with Editors. We’ve been on the road with them since early September, and we’re sad to see it coming to an end. But alas, we have to get into the studio to record an album- finally. We’ll be busy writing and recording for most of the remainder of 2007, with a some exceptions for a few shows here and there. In other news, ‘Dying Is Fine’ was released in the UK as a single- it is available on 7” vinyl and digital download. Tomorrow morning we have to wake up early to catch a flight to Iceland. We’ll be heading into Reykjavik to play at Iceland Airwaves, which is kind of like South by Southwest, I think… Also you can head over to www.daytrotter.com to download (for free) our session we did this past July including two unreleased songs. Look forward to seeing everyone soon! Milo and Ra Ra Riot June 16, 2007 -- We have felt lost since the death of our friend and band mate, John. There will always be unanswered questions, so we can only surrender to life, and move forward without fully understanding. In our distress we feel lucky for having been so close to him, and we're thankful for the guidance that memories of him will give us. All of us in the band are enthusiastic and determined to live out the plans we laid together with John. As we continue, the pain of missing a dear friend will remind us how much we loved him. Coinciding with the wishes of John's family, we have decided to continue onward. We are thankful for the continuous support from friends, family and the music community during this difficult time. We find comfort in this solidarity, and hope that it gives us strength. ra ra riot.
