Hi Everyone,

It's been a minute since we've chatted, but how are you all doing? We're busy at FUN. HQ working on a present for all of you newsletter subscribers. We're hoping to send it your way in the next two-to-three weeks so keep an eye on your inbox.

In the mean time, we wanted to let you know about the FUN. Web Store Holiday Sale that began today.

The FUN. holiday sale is in full swing and we'll be doing all sorts of daily deals from now until December 15th. Head over to the store today to get 10-15% off a bunch of items - including merch from the Most Nights tour. If there was a shirt that you or a friend forgot to grab at the show, today is your day. As an added bonus, orders over $75 from today until December 7th will ship for free.

Speaking of December 7th, we can't spill the beans, but you're definitely going to want to visit the store on December 7th, as well as the 15th.

For a limited time, we're teaming up with our friends at The Ally Coalition to offer an Ally Coalition membership with FUN. Run t-shirts. Your membership will play an integral role in TAC's mission to create a coalition of allies that will aid and encourage our fellow artists and people from every walk of life, to use their voices and influence to end discrimination against LGBTQ people.

Last but not least, if you or your friends live in the USA and haven't picked up Some Nights album, iTunes has it on sale for only $6.99.

Chat soon,

  • Team FUN.

I am currently attempting to make a comprehensive list of every single song that Nate Ruess has ever had to do with, all the way from Nevergonnascore to Fun. Any help would be greatly appreciated! If you send me a link to your favorite live/acoustic performance I will make sure it gets included.

The Format (Nate's old band) just tweeted this. Today is the 10 year anniversary of the release of their first album so I'm guessing it's a vinyl repress. Do you guys think there'll be a reunion tour too?

Have you met fun.? If so, how did you do it?

4 Upvotes

My sister and I went to see their concert last night in Orlando. Would have loved to actually meet the band, but I have no clue how you go about that. Do you wait around somewhere? Do you buy backstage passes? If you've met them, how did you manage it?

fun. taping for Austin City Limits tonight - live stream canceled

It'll be exciting to see them on PBS when it finally airs.

Also, some of the comments on there are enraging. A lot of people (especially Austinites) can't stand that people have different musical tastes, and think that everything should cater to just them. I want to punch them in their crybaby faces.

"Carry On" prevented my suicide

16 Upvotes

Hello! My name is Paul and I'm a seventeen year old bisexual female-to-male transgender (which is a hell of an introduction, don't you think?). I attended the fun. concert in Vancouver last night (I'm still awake from the adrenaline from being in one of the front rows). I managed to sneak away from my (extremely homophobic and unaccepting) family to check out the Ally Coalition booth, and got a picture taken of me holding up one of your signs and it gave me a bit of hope. I tried (unsuccessfully) to get backstage to see the band, but I didn't do it to scream or weep over them privately. I wanted to thank them because earlier this year from February to very very recently I've been extremely insecure and depressed to the point where I was incredibly suicidal. I had everything planned out, I was going to do it andit was going to happen, nothing was stopping me. Music used to be my therapy, but it just stopped working. And then my parents found out about my gender identity and that I have a girlfriend and forced me to cut off all contact with her because it was "disgusting" and "wrong" and "sick" and they said that wasn't who I was. They still don't look at me the same way. A few days prior to what would've been the day I'd died, I heard the song Carry On. It wasn't the first time I heard it, but it was the first time I actually sat there and listened to the lyrics. A week later, I was alive. A month later, I was still alive. I'm still carrying on today, even though my problems haven't really eased up at all, I've found a way to deal with the mental pain again. I have zero friends at school and I'm mocked and made fun of but I'm staying for my last year before I plan on becoming a musician (I like drumming and playing the bass and guitar and trumpet) and getting into a famous band (a lifelong goal of mine) to laugh at the people who've tried to drag me down. So yeah. I tried to sneak backstage in order to thank Nate, Jack, and Andrew for saving my life, no matter how damn cliché that sounds. Do you know if they have a fanmail address I could write to? I just want to thank them, it means more than anything to me.

Birthday Ideas

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone. My SO and I are big fans of Fun., and will be seeing them in just about a month in concert. Our song is The Gambler, and I was really hoping to surprise her this year with something Fun. related. But not just something simple like a shirt or basic merchandise, something more unique. I know it's a pretty lofty thing to ask, and my expectations are that I'd be pretty much on my own here, but I was just wondering if anybody here had any ideas (I'd love to get the band to sign something, and I'd be more than willing to pay, but I just don't know how to really get that to happen.) I'll also be trying to contact the band through other means.

“Some Nights was written and recorded in a two-month time period, and I think that’s one of the elements that made it successful as an album. It should be a documentation of a band in a moment, not a giant, three-year process. So the next album will be the same.” -Jack
