Latest info on Holly present projects (from the mailing list)
At Holly's show at the Phoenix here in Toronto, we all heard some pretty
exciting news. The show was recorded professionally for a live album/EP to
be released in the upcoming months!!! Holly played an amazing fun set that
started off with a tight sounding "New Song" and played just about
everything from Stuff including Porno Mouth which hadnt been played lately.
We were all asked to clap really loudly between songs to make the recording
sound great. Holly mentioned that a show in Las Vegas was recorded also,
but the crowd in Toronto was much better.
So after this EP, Holly will begin writing her next album in Vancouver. No
word about any estimated release date yet. She's been touring for a year
now and will probobly take a rest for a few months.
I've also talked to Universal about possibly getting some prizes for the
site or mailing list so keep your eyes open for that soon ;-)
I'll post more as soon as I know.

Holly cancelled her latest Tour
Holly cancelled her show at Burbon Street West in Pointe-Claire (Montreal) on July 30th.
It seems, from what the guy there told me, that she cancelled her latest tour 'cause she already had
previous recording obligations (cool!!). He said that they would try to have her back in mid-September... so
have faith and maybe we'll be able to enjoy Holly's live experience again sometime soon in Montreal. And let's hope that
we hear some new tracks soon!!!

EDGEfest
Holly is doing Edgefest! Don't worry if she's not doing an Edgefest show
in your area because her schedule leaves her open for many TBA shows that
just might pop up near you!
Dance Mixes
Remember the "dance remixes" that were announced during SnowJob '98?
Well...forget em! Seems that things didnt work out and the remixes arent
happening. Did you really wanna hear "Coward" at a club anyways?
The next single is UFO
U.F.O. is the next radio single. It was supposed to be only for the
American market, but because Holly is so damn popular, we get it too. Don't
hold your breath for a video though...
Record sales
Holly is approaching Platinum sales in Canada. She's at the 85,000 mark
and increasing.

The video was shot in Toronto, it's really amazing.
News about the cancelled show in Montreal: No date has been confired yet, there might not be a show at all...
