Very Important Info Reguarding 04/21 concert at UCLA

April 20th, 2009 by daphnelovesderbymusic

Hey ya’ll.
We are quite honored to have been invited to play a benefit show this
coming Tuesday at UCLA. Unfortunately the show is NOT open to the
public. However, we have been told we may prepare a list of anyone who would like to attend of up to 100 people!

If
you are planning to attend this show and be one of the 100 non UCLA
students allowed to attend, please send us a MYSPACE message by noon
Monday 04/20. If you would like to come and don’t have a myspace, have a friend who does message for you :)
Please be sure to include your real name in the message as photo ID may be requested upon arrival at UCLA.

First messages sent first served.

All entries must be in by Monday morning as we will need a day to get the list to UCLA and to notify anyone that does not fall into the 100 limit.

We still have many spots available.

Here is some information about the show and the cause we are supporting.
Please note this is a benefit show and is free but there is a $10 suggested donation.

Much Love,
Daphne Loves Derby

You
are invited to the 3rd Annual Mighty Mic Human Rights Awareness Concert
at UCLA, Benefit for Burma on Tuesday, April 21st @ 6pm in Ackerman
Grand Ballroom. Burma is a country that has been under the rule of an
all-oppressive military junta for 43 years, making it the 4th least
free country in the world. Join us in learning more about the human
rights violations, including the abuse of ethnic minorities, mass rape
of women, forced labor, mandatory relocations, and child soldiers. The
concert will feature performances by BLACKALICIOUS, DAPHNE LOVES DERBY,
AUDIBLE MAINFRAME, JARELL PERRY & BRANDON CONTRERAS. Speakers will
include Edith Mirante of Project Maje - a Burma awareness group, exiled
Burmese journalist Min Zin, activist Khin Ohmar and the All-Burma Monks
Alliance.

Mighty
Mic Human Rights Awareness Concert is a student-run non-profit concert
that attracts about 2,000 attendees annually and is fast becoming a
beloved UCLA tradition. Last year, Mighty Mic raised over $20,000 for
the refugees of the genocide in Darfur. This year, Mighty Mic will
highlight the struggle for human rights in Benefit For Burma 2009’s
multi-media showcase, which will feature an on-site art gallery,
interactive educational activities, and booth space for non-profits,
sponsors, and student-..organizations,..as well as relevant educational content in the form of speakers and videos which will entertain, inform, and inspire attendees.

Check out our website at www…mightymic.org
or visit us on Bruinwalk for details on how to get tickets. A $10
donation is strongly recommended. All proceeds go to Doctors Without
Borders and U.S. Campaign for Burma.

New songs for you…

November 24th, 2008 by daphnelovesderbymusic

Sorry for being gone for so long friends. Been too busy getting ready for the alien invasion. Something like that…

I hope you haven’t forgotten about us. We just needed some time to breathe and age properly. Like wine… or a methuselah tree.

Please enjoy the new song. We have written over 30 in the past year… Threw most of them away… Survival of the fittest you know? Actually I don’t know.

Check them here: myspace.com/daphnelovesderby

There will be more songs to be posted in the coming weeks. Love you all so much

Meta Lyrics:

Everyone’s giving blood from their tongue… just in case they can’t dream out loud. No one here has a clue to the calm words of love… so we tend to shout. Once we are dirt, all the mountains of men will fall. Once we are gone, all the mountains of men will fall. They will fall.

God at times it feels like we’ve been left here alone forever more. God I’m fighting to swim, but my wrongs drag me back to the bloody shore. We will fall.

I’m a lover. I’m a Killer. I’m a sinner and saint. I can fly when I’m dreaming, but I sink when awake.

Some DLD stuff…

July 20th, 2008 by daphnelovesderbymusic

We just added a few West Coast Festivals, College Shows, and other
dates.  Writing is really coming together better than we ever could
have hoped and we should have some exciting announcements in the near
future.  In the meantime, we will keep posting demos for you to see
where we are going with this thing we call DLD.

Thanks for all of your support!

Spencer Leaving DLD

May 26th, 2008 by daphnelovesderbymusic

We posted all this info in a bulletin a while back but we’re stupid and forgot to post a blog about it as well. So here it is again…

To the awesome faithful fans of DLD:

Not really sure how to start this, but after countless hours of thinking, praying, and really weighing out my life, I (Spencer) have decided to step away from Daphne.

It is a decision I didn’t take lightly and I feel I have avoided for quite some time. I feel as if I have some personal issues in my life to work out, ones much too complicated to write in a simple blog, that simply won’t get sorted out while touring and being on the road as often as the guys are.

While in the band, I really poured my heart and soul into it, and it’s going to be hard to leave. At the end of the day, it’s just something I have to do and I hope you all can understand. I’m really going to miss being with the guys, touring, meeting and hanging out with SO SO SO many awesome people everywhere, and just living the adventurous life we had. I love everyone in the band deeply and I consider them my brothers. They are great guys and from what I know I am beyond stoked to hear what comes of the new music they are coming up with. I can’t wait to see where they go!

Thanks for being awesome!

Spencer

The New Video, Tours, Everything…

March 12th, 2008 by daphnelovesderbymusic

Hello Friends,

Checking in from snowy Seattle.  We just got word that our video for
Stranger will be playing on MTVu quite frequently starting next week so
look out for that. 

Writing is coming along really well.  Some exciting ideas so far and
a lot more to come.  Stay tuned for much more info and updates on this.

We will be playing Bamboozle on April 5th and have some college
shows booked around that which we will be announcing soon.  We still
may add a couple more so if you have the power to bring us to your
campus, send us a message.

And finally, they keep extending the possibilities of these Myspace
players on our myspace so now we can have something like 6 songs up.  We will add some
old favorites and maybe another new song soon!

Much Love,

DLD
