A Note From Adrian
Hello all.
I am writing from a recording studio were we are working on new No Doubt material. As many of you know, Gwen played a couple of shows in Irvine, California in June. As a surprise, No Doubt played the encores which were unannounced. What a great experience!! We all really had a blast, and on a personal note, I felt more of an energy rush than I had on stage in many years. The audience was crazy. They were louder than I can remember for a regular No Doubt show.
I think we were all feeling that this could be a fun idea independently from each other. Of course it only took one of us to throw the idea out and then it was on. Playing briefly together again was truly epic.
Can't wait to get back on the horse.

A Great Night
Thanks to everyone who came out to see us play at tsunami relief
concert. Thanks also to everyone who donated their time and effort to
help us raise over one million dollars for Unicef and Habitat For
Humanity. We had a superb time playing together again. If you weren't
able to make it to the show but would like to donate to the Music For
Relief: Rebuilding South Asia effort, you can go to musicforrelief.org for more info.
See you soon.
