Hellogoodbye is selling their tour van and more information is posted below.

i’m plannin’ on selling our 2005 ford e350 xlt 15 passenger van. cause you know, we have a private jet now. im probably gonna be selling that soon too when we start touring via teleportation. so if you’re in a band thats not quite to the private jet level yet, maybe this’ll do.

Drivetrain: RWD

for a band its good cause it currently has a nice loft built into the back to sleep 2- 3 and storage / sleeping below as well. but it’d come out easy if you wanted. its got a data / cd player with an aux in to hook up ipods. and a towing package for a trailer and all that. its in good condition, runs spectacularly, only minor cosmetic dings (with j burger behind the wheel, its hard to avoid.) and no rust. i don’t have pictures YET but if you are totally seriously considering i could get some pretty quick.

here’s a link to the kelly blue book info on this van with some of the important stats on it… [kelly blue book value].

if you wanna know more, email hellogoodbyesvan@gmail.com. the van is in orange county, sooo you’d have to be able to get it from here. so hopefully you live nearby. ask me questions, whatever. (try not to email that address to say wasssup. say wassup at forrestskline@gmail.com.)

xoxo, forrest & the hellogoodbye orchestra

Benjamin Harper Leaves Amber Pacific For Takeover

By 3 Comments

Takeover Records owner Benjamin Harper recently confirmed his departure from the Hopeless Records pop-punk act Amber Pacific, whom he had been playing guitar with since August. Citing a need to focus his attention on Takeover as reasoning, Harper made clear that his leaving had nothing to do with the band itself. â┚¬Ã…”Amber Pacific are a bunch of great guys, but after writing with them in Seattle, I felt I needed to rethink my position in life.â┚¬?

With a move thatâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢s reminiscent of his exit from Yellowcard last year, Harper is currently focused on bringing Takeover Records to the top. Though the guitarist has received an offer to play in a band you may have â┚¬Ã…”never heard of,â┚¬? heâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢s not confirming his membership just yet.
