Checked another show off the list.
Had a great show at Rock for people.
We represented rock and the people well... you know!
Pouring rains did not become anyone of us and like always - success!
On the way to Finland now for more. The Hives are always looking for more.

The Hives were back in the game today and yesterday playing Rock am Ring yesterday and Rock im Park today. Plan accordingly The Hives won again and were celebrated as divine saviours of hearts and souls.
The Hives also wish to extend a "Thank you!" to the crowds at both festivals who once again cemented the fact that German crowds are some of the best if not THE best in the world. Thank you all!
We will be back again for more mutual love. You bet on it!!!

Holy Diploma Batman straight A's!
AAAAAHHHHHHHHH! The show yesterday at Larry's was a complete success as The Hives marked their return to the rockstage as worthy champions of their game.
The crowd cheered and screamed and cheered and screamed and so forth...
The Hives played and played and played and played and then stopped to let people breethe and then played some more. WE WAS ON FIRE!
So as for next weeks shows The Hives will come to Germany as reigning rock champions with the keys to the city of Oxford. How about that?!
Let's just put yesterday in the "Funny as hell"- category and move on. The Hives will never forget.
Thank you Larry's and thank you Oxford!
Sincerely
Your humble servants
The Hives

Hi there dorks!
Just a brief note on what's going down in Oxford at the moment.
Today we are proceeding with our recordings as well as doing a bit of interview chores around the studio.
Oxfors MS has welcomed us with open arms and today we are getting the key to the city by the mayor. Yes for real.
Yesterday we had the lovely Ole miss cheerleaders here to cheer on what will become a future classic. They even made a Hives chant that we can use in the future.
Im off for a sec now to answer questions regarding The Hives.
Take care and talk soon
Hugs and missiles

Too much good music!

Hi there folks and folkettes!
Today is a good day in the studio here in Mississippi. We are recording vocals on what in my opinion is one of the best songs The Hives have ever recorded. Not too bad of a grade coming from such a picky man as Nick Arson. And shit man it's not like it ends there we just have too much good stuff to put on this new record of ours.
How we are gonna pull it off all these bitchin' rock'n rollers together with the crazy dance and hip hop flavoured stuff we have recorded and make that work on one record I don't know but if someone is gonna do it it is your favourite crimefighters The Hives.
We also by the way today mish mashed Chuck Berry and Gang of Four in a moronic way to create yet another dear freak of a song.
We have recorded songs in many corners of the world for this record and it is only getting better and better. More songs and more quality by the minute it seems.
So hold on to your seats for the ride The Hives are about to give you.
There has also been some turmoil on the forum about my new haircut that has been spotted by some. To that I just whish to add that I do not want you to get too excited just yet. As of now it is merely a haircut in the build. It will reach great heights and I would think that that is when it is done. Be patient and wait before judging. Good things come to those who wait and that is what I repeat to myself every morning looking in the hotel mirror.
So again I urge you as I urge myself - Be patient the best is yet to come!
So long

The Week
Posted on 4/22/2007 by the_hives
Hello you,
I am calling to report on current events in the life of
Pelle. It has been an intense, globetrotting week for me. Here it is:
April 15: Had dinner with grandparents, went to 7th
anniversary of great bar Indigo in Stockholm.
April 16: Put together new kick ass outfits with the Hives.
Looks phabulous. Attended a record release party for Sahara Hotnights new album.
Met many a dear old friend.
April 17: Took pictures for the new album cover. Have yet to
see the results but I would be very surprised if it didn´t look great.
Our surfer dude friend Bisse
took the pictures. He good.
April 18: Got on a plane to Los Angeles California. Arrived
late so me Nicholaus and Vigilante just went out and had dinner and drinks at
some place on Sunset Blvd. Then sleep.
April 19: Shot video for the Timbaland song we are guesting on. It was
an unbelievably LA experience. We basically ate catering, stood in front of a
green screen, hung out with friendly female wrestling stars who showed us a few
moves and managed to keep it Hives through the day. All of this at Universal
studios.
April 20: Flew to Nashville to attend hockey game. Cabbie played
us his new country album while jumping up and down in his seat. He may have
been drunk. A guy at the hockey game had a sign that said ”was it over when the
germans bombed Pearl Harbour?” Dumbass.
Met swedish hockey player Peter Forsberg. Nice cat. Beer at
local rib joint.
April 21: Had breakfast with Jack White. Recorded footsteps
for the new Raconteurs album. Those
are some great guys. Went to the Ryman
Auditorium. A guy told us it was ”possibly the most famous building in the
world”. I say possibly not. Flew to Oxford, MS to commence recordings of our
new album.
April 22: Had breakfast. Stay tuned…
Love you all/
Pelle
Busy OK!
Posted on 4/17/2007 by the_hives
Yeah we have been busy with having time off??? We were at home in Sweden chillin´ for a few days.
But today my dears we are busy shooting the cover for our new record. I´m as of now standing in my underwear balancing a live elephant on my forhead. It´s hard work but I do it man. I do whatever it takes to get that shot. Hey Dumbo!!! - hold that pose! Bright lights big animal! Phew!
Ok good think we got it.
Remains to be seen if that is the look we are going for or if we are to do something else. Matt is sick and is coughing up anything from stray dogs to class A material? Oh what to do?
Yep that´s it. Gotta get dressed for the next shot. Bring in the livestock!!!
Sincerely signing off
Nicholaus Arson
Mississippi baby!
Posted on 4/4/2007 by the_hives
Yeah so we've been at it for about 2 weeks now. Mostly in Oxford MS. Recording, reworking and improving a whole bunch of songs.
We just came back from Como MS where we recorded some stuff with Jimbo Mathus in his studio Delta Recording Service. Dropped in on the session as a big bonus did bluesman R L Boyce. Laid down some back ups and spreaded a bit of blues joy.
Things are going somewhat planlike and the men in black and white are in good spirits.
Talk soon
For now
Nick Arson
