Real update:Hey all. We are in Detroit right now and it is about 90 out, and probably over 100 in the venue, no A/C in here :-( But thats ok. Tour is still going amazing. Last night we were in Toronto. Our first show out of the country (and actually my first time out of the country haha) It was really fun, the canadian money mixed with american money was really confusing, and going over the border was really annoying. A van full of kids coming back to the U.S and they give us a "Random Search," grrr. So we had to wait for like an hour while the searched all our stuff and tried to scare us and all, but we were all clean of course and finally headed outta there! BTW:Everyone who had anything at all to do with our big gifts tonight that we recieved from Kimi.. AMAZZZZZINGGG Thank you all so much, everyone who helped out with the mix cds and scrap book and EVERYTHING else. Unreal. We have to go on in a few minutes to play but right when we are done we are running (yes running) to the van to look through everything more. I personally cant wait! (none of us can) We love you all, and hope we can make it up to you at our shows very soon. Thank everyone so much for the support you're all amazing. Official Business: -New Pics up on Myspace -New songs on myspace soon -New LJ Picture update (look at the entry below) -VIDEO coming this week (hope you're all excited)
that should do it! See everyone soon? <3BLG

We played in a dodge ball tournament, and we were totally the underdogs, none of us had played before. We came in 2nd, next time we are going to win the whole thing our team was called BLG Unit. We may buy some balls and cones and have our own little tournaments this summer while we are on tour, so next time we go play GLOBAL GYM we can win haha.

Whaddup again from Maryland! We are done tracking drums and bass and have moved on to rhythm guitar. Sunday we start flip-flopping in between guitar and vocals, and will continue that way till were done. The record is really starting to take shape, and we are VERY excited about how its sounding! We picked our final 12 songs and can't wait to get them out to you guys. In other news...our producer Matt Squire is no longer a free man! Sorry ladies! Congratulations to lovebirds Matt and Ali for their engagement tonight! (we could hear her screaming upstairs when he popped the question, and we inappropriately started cheering and clapping...sorry to ruin the moment guys) Pictures and videos from the studio are coming soon! Lots of love <3, Boys Like Girls |

So, as most of you know, I am still in high school and need to finish ONE paper in order to graduate. So today I left the studio for a little bit to go to the library so I can finally get this thing done. I am using one of the computers to look up books and stuff, and to the right of me sits down a little old man in a suit, has to be pushin' 80. Alright, so I keep looking, doing my thing, and I hear a stern voice: "SIR! SIR!!" EXCUSE ME!" The library supervisor guy was talking to the old man. "LOOKING AT PORNOGRAPHY ON THESE COMPUTERS IS AGAINST THE LAW!" I look at the screen to my right... Ok I wont get into the details, but DAMN!! "OH OH OH. no, its not pornography.. these are ads.. no.." "SIR I KNOW WHAT PORNOGRAPHY LOOKS LIKE, YOU NEED TO GET UP AND LEAVE" I was pretty impressed, this guy had BALLS. So he began to leave and I followed him out. I asked if I could get a picture with him but he told me "no," because he's "not that interesting." I disagree. So if anyone is in Maryland and sees ( this man ), get to know him. He's amazing. < 3Paul
