enjoy this list before I am forced to change it
Following the success of Dallaire, Saucer spent a couple of years playing and promoting it. This was followed by two significant life changes. Jef had a kid, and Alex moved up North. Neither stopped the band, but it did cause some flux.
While Alex continues to train for the coming apocalypse in the nigh-tundra, we brought our former singer back into the fold, as well as adopting a small abandoned Amish boy, whom we've trained to play Bass. Thus Saucer mark III is born
The ensuing rock and roll sounds are a tremendous amount of fun, albeit quite explicit.
For those of you that yearn for Saucer Mark II, or Saucer "Classic" don't you worry. We're just withholding for a while while people's stockpiles dwindle. When Alex sees fit to return to the city we'll bring that special sauce back, but in the mean time, the "New" Saucer is making friends and fans at the series of largely advertising themed shows that we have had and are planning to have over the coming months.
You love us. You know you do. Old, New, Classic, Classic Rock, Neo Classical Shredding, in any flavour, Saucer is still good music.
Ta!

.. Hi there Saucer first of all we'd like to say thanks for being our myspace pal. We wanted to make sure you knew the reason incase we suddenly vanish off of your friends list. The movement we've started for indie artists has grown significantly and consumes all of our time these days. We seldom sign into our myspace account and this is making several people believe that we are ignoring them. We are not ignoring anyone, we wanted everyone to know that. What we're doing has become so busy we just don't have the time for myspace any longer, so in all honesty we are probably going to just close our myspace account.
Many people wanted to use us in the future so if you were one of those people you can click the link below to visit our profile which wlil provide you with more information and also give you the link to our website! I wish you the best of luck in your music career. Thanks again for being our myspace pal.
What's up Saucer, check out this Cezanne ecard where you can listen to our latest album Breaking Bats for Jesus. Feel free to send it to all your friends. Don't be shy now.

P.S. Indie records make great Christmas/Hanukkah gifts.
Heyyyy! I stole your picks at the NOW Lounge show! Hopefully we see more of you guys in the near future. That doesn't mean I won't shell out my old age pension bucks for the distant future neither. Just that sooner is better :) Keep rockin like Dokken.
hey thanks so much for checking us out, glad you could dig our stuff. its actually too bad we just had to pass on a world tour with Buckcherry a few weeks back (we're busy in the studio right now recording with Aerosmith's engineer/collaborator/co-producer which was just more important to finish up at the moment) otherwise we'd probably be seeing you within the next few weeks. no worries though, we've got other tour offers coming in so shouldn't be too long.
would definitely appreciate you dropping us a comment and letting us know what you think :) thanks so much!
you might be interested in this by the way. since things are taking off so much, we're going to be discontinuing our original version of the Crash Midnight shirts very soon so only the people who supported us from the beginning will have them. anyone we see at our shows on tour with these original shirts on will get preference for free tickets, invites to after parties, special first listen CDs of our upcoming album and any other cool perks we can think of to thank all of those people who helped us launch this band.
i tossed a link below if you want to go check out and pick up our CD and those T-shirts :)
keep in touch and can't wait to see you out there!
