Pete Wentz updated his twitter, telling all his followers to check out “Hummingbird”! He really likes Chris, haha.
BTW, Ann posted over in the comment box about the poll for the Sexiest Vegetarian of 2009 by Peta. Chris is on the list so vote for him here!

MTV’s Buzzworthy has a new article on Chris and new photos, as well! Check it all out below!
Exclusive MTV Photos: NeverShoutNever!
Christofer Drew, aka Never Shout Never, posted a new photo to his MySpace yesterday afternoon. That’s less than 24 hours ago. At last count, the photo had accumulated 3,084 comments (I’ve had to go back and adjust that number three times since I started writing because it keeps going up). That’s just plain mental.
In the photo, Drew stands barefoot on a stool, in a nautical tank top, with his decorated wings spread. He has a peace symbol tattooed on his left foot, but you already knew that. You know because Christofer Drew is a big deal. His Internet popularity is off the charts — the 283,867 friends and 18,659,515 profile views he’s amassed on MySpace have put him among the most buzzed-about bands of 2009. Oh, and his heart-breakingly charming songs don’t hurt, either.
What you may not know, is that the MySpace photo that’s generating all the comments came from an exclusive MTV shoot with our buddy Brian Appio. Something tells me you might be interested in seeing the rest of the set… Am I right?

Free Rice!

This is not really about NSN! but it is in the spirit of Chris. Chris is all about helping other people, and you can do that from your own computer with the website FREERICE.COM — Some of you probably know about it, but if you don’t….on this website you can test out your vocabulary skills while helping feed the world. For every answer you get right, 10 grains of rice go toward helping end world hunger. I just did 880 grains. See if you can beat me! (:
ForTheSound Interview
May 18th, 2009 by Naquita • 1 Comment!
ForTheSound.com interviewed Chris and Taylor for their website. Here are some interesting bits:
I think a lot of people are surprised to learn that you are still unsigned and have chosen to not sign to a label. You’ve said that a lot of that had to do with wanting to maintain control over your music and all that you do, have there been labels that have approached you and asked you to compromise your music or image to be a part of their label? Or has it just been something you avoided in general?
I mean, I’ve talked to a lot of labels and I pretty much met with every major label and just slowly as I went along as a musician I started figuring out that I didn’t feel like that industry, was for me. I don’t know. It just didn’t feel right. And uh, we got pretty close to signing sometimes and they were always like just, just always looking for radio singles, you know? They don’t care about being an artist or anything like that so,..I don’t know it wasn’t the right vibes.
Okay so next is superlatives. I’m glad you’re both here, you can work together! If the people on this tour were to vote on superlatives the way a high school does for the yearbook at the end of the year, what would each of the members in your band get? What would each of the bands on the tour as a whole get? (Example: Most likely to…, Best…, etc.)
Christofer: I’m most likely to get raped.
Taylor: Most likely to get raped?!
Christofer: Yeah.
Taylor: Definitely.
Christofer: I’m very sensitive…
Taylor: Or kidnapped.
Christofer: Or kidnapped, yeah! That works too…because I don’t know karate moves!Taylor: Most likely to never clean out the van!!
Christofer: Yeah! We’re the dirtiest band ev-er. I don’t get it. Our van is so dirty, you can’t even see the floor. Like, I have to sit cross-legged on the seat because there’s so much shit on the ground.

Tour with Boys Like Girls + MTVU Festival
Current mood: EcstaticWe are really excited to announce we’ll be doing a 4 week tour with BOYS LIKE GIRLS starting on June 19th!!!!!!!!!!!!! Most of the dates will be posted tonight with a few more to be added next week. Tickets for the tour are available starting today. These are at some rad venues as well as a few stops at SiX Flags.
4 weeks kinda seems like FOREVER when compared to The Little Tiny Tour (4 days) which starts tomorrow. (please come hang out, this tour is going to be really fun and relaxing)
Right after Boys Like Girls, we’ll be doing a run of shows with the MTVU SUNBLOCK FESTIVAL as well as a few dates at SIX FLAGS (this is mostly cuz we hope to get free ride tickets).
That’s all for now. Packing up for the mini tour and cramming into the van for a few days of fun in the sun with friends. Joplin’s local superhero, Carter Hulsey, will be opening up for the shows this week.
We had a bunch of giant, green foam hands made for Bamboozle and we added all the ones left to the MERCHNOW store (we’ll also have some on the road this week)

Foam Hand

The peace sign foam hands Chris was talking about are now up in the online store. They are pretty sweet, I gotta admit. But in retrospect, I think they’d be rather annoying if people actually wore them and held them up at shows. Haha. Click below to buy one:
New BLG Tour

Thanks to Tobi for sending in the following news. Martin from Boys Like Girls posted on his website about their new tour. On the tour poster it says NeverShoutNever! is one of the special guests. This must be the tour Chris was talking about in his last blog.
