You are now looking at Version Two of More Than Good Hooks [dot] com! As you can see from the layout, this is quite an overhaul from our previous one which was very simple and a tad all over the place. We’re excited for the change and hope you are, too.

Firstly, we would like to give a massive shoutout to Julia Zave for allowing us to use the awesome photo she took which now serves as our sidebar header image. The original image had the exact vibe we were after for the site, so we thank you for that!

Secondly, the announcement will be postponed until further notice due to circumstances beyond our control but we will inform you of it eventually.

The new MTGH also sees some new features being added to the site, find out more and read all about it in this blog entry.

There have been several updates since you last heard from us and here’s what’s new on MTGH (bear in mind we still have more to add in time to come):

Update: Teamers have been contacted, please check your e-mail. We will be updating you on the tasks soon.

Here are the updated details for Fall Out Boy’s show live in Singapore next year.

Tickets will go on sale via Sistic on Tuesday, December 16th at 9AM for online booking and 10AM at all Sistic outlets, in conjunction with the worldwide release of their latest album Folie à Deux. Early bird buyers of the top-tier tickets will also get copies of the album, courtesy of Midas Promotions.

On a sidenote, next year’s SINGfest will be held on August 1st & 2nd.

Yep, they’ll be back in the coming months. The only dates in SEA currently scheduled are for Singapore and Manila. However, if and when other countries are also on the list later on, we will be sure to post updates. We expect Jakarta to be third SEA concert between Manila (12th) and Perth (15th), but we’ll see how that goes cos the schedule is starting to look a bit tight.

Hey Monday will be supporting the band at these shows including the Japan/Australian/NZ dates.
