The Brisbane instore is scheduled for Dec. 8th and other states should occur around that time.
Pepsi Charts:
There was no announcement at the end of last Sunday's show that HN would be on this coming Sunday but with the singles release so close I'm betting this will be the week. Get your VCR's set for The Pepsi Charts on Sunday night at 6pm (EST).
Video Hits
Video Hits will be playing the 'HDLY' clip for all those fans who were unable to catch it on Channel [V]. There will also be an exclusive competition running from November 11th to 26th. No doubt a 'meet the guys' event.
October 30th:
Balding Epidemic:
The shaved head seems to be contageous. Phil gave in to the 'chop' a few months ago and it now seems that Toby has abandoned his bleached hair and shaved it off as well. There are no photos of the hairless Toby yet but here's hoping it's a good look.
HDLY on Pepsi Charts:
HN recorded a live version of HDLY for the Pepsi charts a number of weeks ago and it still hasn't aired. It doesn't appear that they'll be on next week but the week after looks promising as it will be the week following the release of the single.
HDLY Release:
Less than a week to go until the release of the first single off HN's new self-titled album! HDLY will hit stores next monday morning - November 6th.
Video Hits Promo:

Human Nature's self-titled album 'Human Nature' is set for release on December 4th 2000 and features 12 brand new songs recorded in Sydney, London and Sweden!
October 23rd:
AMV Feature:
Be sure to watch AMV (All Music Video) every day this week from 7.30-8.30am. Human Nature are the 'feature of the week' which means AMV will feature a short interview with the band every morning as well as play one of their video clips. There's also a competition to be flown to Sydney and have lunch with HN. For more information visit www.amv.i7.com.au.
ARIA Awards:
The 14th Annual Scape ARIA Awards are on this Tuesday night. The awards will be broadcast on Channel 10 at 8pm. Human Nature did not make the final vote for the Channel [V] Artist of the Year but there's still a slight chance that they may make an appearance so have your eyes peeled for them
Pepsi Charts:
Human Nature did not appear on the Pepsi Charts last week or the week before as was expected. It also seems that they will not be on next week because of Ricky Martin's arrival in the country. Keep your eyes out the following week (Sunday, November 5) as it's the day before the single's release.
Magazine Alert:
Keep your eyes on coming issues of TV Hits, Smash Hits and other teen mags. With the appraoching release of 'He Don't Love You' Human Nature will no doubt be making a lot of press appearances.
October 13th:
'He Don't Love You' Full-Length Premier:
The new single 'He Don't Love You' has been showcased all evening on radio stations all over the nation! I heard it on TTFM (Melbourne) introduced by Andrew, elsewhere the other guys took the helm with a small over-the-phone interview. The song is no doubt a HUGE hit with the fans and will soar up the charts in no time!!! Well done HN!!

'HDLY' Live:
Don't forget that HN will be singing 'He Don't Love You' live (well, prerecorded) on the Pepsi Charts this Sunday! Channel 10 6pm (Melbourne time)
Promotional Tour:
The guys have a promo tour scheduled for November. Some reports say this will be local while others believe it will take the band overseas for a few weeks. Of course, a promo tour in November could interfere with fan exams so keep your fingers crossed it doesn't effect yours too much.
Neighbours Dates:
The dates for Human Nature's appearances on Neighbours have been revealed. They'll be appearing on the final 3 eps of 2000 - November 24th, 27th and 28th. As well as the first ep of 2001 in Jan/Feb.

Human Nature were interviewed last night on the Austereo network (2DayFM, Fox FM, SAFM, PMFM, B105FM etc.) around the nation. They played 30 seconds of their new clip 'He Don't Love You' which sounds AMAZING to say the least as well as singing a snippet of 'Waltzing Matilda' - they couldn't sing the Anthem due to contractual agreements with the Games Committee.
The new single will hit radios in October and will be in stores in November!
September 14th:

September 7th:
Album Title:
The rumour is that Human Nature's new album will be self-titled. That is, simply called 'Human Nature'. I haven't heard anything about this so it's not yet gospel.
Olympics Update:
Don't forget that as well as singing the first verse of 'Advance Australia Fair', Human Nature are supposedly joinging in for 'Waltzing Matilda'. I haven't heard any Olympic updates for a time but I did hear there'd be a group of celebs singing 'WM' together. The Openeing Cermony begins at 7pm (EST).
September 6th:
HN World's FCPhil Chat a success:
The chat at HN World was a complete success! FC Phil tried as best he could to answer as many questions as he could. Marc has been kind enough to allow 'NI' a transcript which we'll try to get done soon. I'll attempt to add the notes I've taken to the 'media articles and reviews' page.
Neighbours:
Rumours galore have been flooding the airwaves about HN's appearance on Neighbours. Their appearance is apparently scheduled for the 2000 Season Finale and the 2001 Premiere Episode. So there's a long wait between.
Rumours about their apearance say that one of the HN boys becomes romantically involved with a cast member and that they clean up Joel, Lance and Toadie's house. These rumours are not substatiated so don't hold your breath. We do know that the band will perform their new single 'He Don't Love You' on the show.
New Single:
The new single 'He Don't Love You' will be released to radio in October and available in stores in November. The band will be doing a nation-wide promotional tour with the single and possible the album.
Kaylan Co-Write:
Apparently some of the songs that will appear on the new - untitled - HN album have been co-written by the brothers from Kaylan! This was heard in an interview with Kalan on OzMade (on the Austereo network).
ARIA Awards Final Five:
ARIA have announced the final contenders for the awards and sadly Human Nature have not been nominated. It's understandable because HN haven't been in the public eye much this past year so let's just hope that next year will be the one.
September 4th:
Olympic Program:
The Olympic Games Opening Ceremony begins at 7pm (EST) on Friday September 15th. (In 2 weeks) Human Nature will perform the first verse of the Australian National Anthem - followed by Julie Anthony with the second verse - at 7.05pm (EST) so get your VCR's set early!!!

August 29th:
Human Nature not 'Boy 4':
Unconfirmed reports have told that Human Nature's appearance on Neighbours will not come as expected. It seems the writers may have been toying with the HN fans, leading us to believe HN would appear as 'Boy 4'. Instead, reports say that Michael will have to visit Dr. Kennedy for a sore throat where Flick will meet him and beg the band to sing at their end-of-year school dance. They will perform their new single.
The boys filmed their spot last week in Melbourne and it will air sometime after the Olympic Games in October.

Ailing Andrew
The gossip that's been circulating the fan message board that Andrew has been in hospital has been laughingly denied. FC Phil told that when he spoke to Andrew about the rumour Andrew simply laughed. It's okay people, he's okay.
August 10th:
Neighbours
Keep your eyes on Neighbours (6.30pm ch.10). It seems that with the re-confirmation of HN appearing on the show their beginning to play them again! Depend On Me was played in the background of last nights' episode and I can only assume there's more to come!
