Subject: The Season of Darkness mini tour - and other Secret Secret news
Happy Halloween and Season of Darkness!
We just got back from Long Beach where we did the third show of the
Season of Darkness tour at The Bizarre Vampire Bazaar. The first two
shows were in Japan and they were great! Japanese Gothlings really get
into their outfits.
Info about the cool bands and DJs that we played with, the venues and
photos from all three shows at:

For photos just click on the photos menu button.
Thanks to everyone that helped out (and there were many) and to those
that came out to the shows. There is a small chance that a Bay Area show
will be added to the Season of Darkness tour. If that happens I'll let
you know.
During The Season of Darkness tour we had some excellent guest members
join us on stage. In Japan there was Masami and Hiromi. Masami is a
wizard at the keyboards and plays in the band Kurasu. A tremendous help
to be sure. His good friend and former band mate Hiromi joined us for
keyboards and backing vocals. She's from Kyoto! She was great. State
side our good friend Amber who has been a Secret Secret support for
years played keys at our Long Beach show. Barry a new friend of the band
also joined us for the Long Beach show. Thank you so much to all of
you. Secret Secret will be doing a lot of shows next year and we are
looking for members that can go on the road. If you know of someone
please introduce us.
There have been a bunch of little updates to the Secret Secret website
including long over due links to our friend's band websites, and some
other links. Other minor tweaks have been made to various locations on
the website. :)

We met a lot of new music friends in Japan. Many of them now have links
on our website with the new Japanese bands section on the bands links
page. Please check it out, but beware that most of them are in
Japanese.
While in Japan I did a radio interview for Ascii magazine. Saeki Kenzo
interviewed me in Japanese and you can hear it at:
http://www.radiat.net
The site is in Japanese so it may bit a bit difficult to navigate if you
don't have a computer set up to read Japanese. Sorry, I don't have a
direct link. I am working on getting a transcripted version, and then
of course an English translation. =8<>
Carl and I think we got the spam thing to the list fixed (we'll soon
find out!). We've added PPP (password posting protection). Sorry about
that whole awkwardness, but it looks like it's finally sorted out. :)
Now it's back to work on "The City of Secrets" our next CD. The
adventure game that will be featured on the cd is coming along nicely.
Emily our "Maker" created a "Trailer" version of the game for an
adventure competition, and she won! That was a most pleasant surprise.
Info from the Judges at:

The Trailer can be downloaded at:

We also have, as a preview to the new cd, a Video CD with three tracks
from our Dark Memorial Tour. Featured on it are Forgotten, Sanctuary
and Metal. We sell these for $10 and can be ordered via email.
Our friend Davi from Blind Before Dawn did a review of our "The Living
Secrets" CD for the Aid for Bands website. You can read the review on
the SS site and there are links to the Aid for Bands site:

Our friend Sonya from In Music We Trust did a review of "The Living
Secrets" CD. The review and links are on the Secret Secret reviews page
at:
http://www.secret-secret.com/ss/sonyareview.html
"The Living Secrets" CD can also be ordered via email, and we sell this
for $10. We still have some gray Secret Secret T-shirts for $10, and
some black ones that go for $15.
Jaa matane,
