TWIST: Hi Britt! We're so excited for the show, so what can you tell us about it and your character, Lux?

TWIST was serenaded by the super-cute guys of The Sunstreak earlier this week! Check out our exclusive videos of the band performing three songs from the upcoming album Once Upon A Lie. It hits shelves October 6th! We def recommend picking up a copy! And be sure to check out our exclusive Q&A with Dave, Tony, Gary, Jason and Jack!
TWIST: Hey guys! Let's first talk about the new album Once Upon A Lie! I have to admit I haven't stopped listening to it!
Dave (guitar/vocals): Gary (drummer) and I had about 30 songs we put together, and it was July of last year that we wanted to start recording. When we all got back from various tours, we went to my house, built a studio and did the whole thing in the bedroom.
TWIST: Wow! 30 songs?! How'd you narrow it down?
Dave: Originally the album was 18 songs, because you couldn't fit too much music on one disc. We literally packed the CD as much as we could!
Gary: There was like a minute or a half left on the CD!
Dave: We rammed it! And then Liz, our manager, was like, 'Do what you want to do and we'll just take it and run with it.' So we picked our favorite 18 songs and put it out locally in Rochester, NY. And here we are!
Tony (lead vocals): Then, we had to narrow that down to 11 tracks! That was even harder. 30 to 18 then 18 to 11, that was tough!
TWIST: So, 11 songs made the CD. Which one is your personal fave?
Tony: "Once Upon a Lie!" The title track is my favorite track. Absolutely.
Jason (bass): That one or "Only for Tonight"
Gary: I'm a big "Everyday" fan because that's fun to play live!
Dave: Yes, that's definitely the most fun to play live. I probably like the single "Until I Met You" the most.
Jack (guitar): I'd say "Only For Tonight."
TWIST: And I'll go with "I'm Through!" So, what's been your #1 album of the year?
Dave: My favorite album this year is probably Intuition by Jamie Foxx. I just love R&B.
TWIST: You mentioned touring, so what band rituals do you guys have?
Gary: Sing-a-longs in the van going from show to show! In the middle of the night, somebody will be driving while everyone is sleeping. And suddenly, Wilson Phillips will come on [everyone laughs] and we'll start singing and rockin'! Somebody starts, and it's just on!
Jack: It helps when the coffee runs out and you gotta keep driving!
TWIST: Sounds like fun! What are your must-have snacks on tour?
Tony: I drink water non-stop. I always have 2 bottles. Always. We have like cases of water blowing through the van.
TWIST: Takes up more space than your equipment right?
Tony: Yes, definitely!
TWIST: And do you guys have any traditions or superstitions about going on stage?
Gary: We have a little rock-a-thon and put our hands together.
Dave: For bigger shows, we do a little huddle up.
TWIST: I'm sure you guys get pretty pumped to be on stage! Has anyone fallen down or fallen off stage during a show?
Tony: There are certain times!
Dave: Tony has a move where he Nancy Kerrigan's his way around the stage, like triple lutz action! And he went down - we got it on tape! I'll send it to you!
TWIST: Do you guys have any quirky habits?
Gary: When I'm wearing socks, the right one is inside out all the time.
Jason: I have to have cereal around me at all times. I can eat cereal 3 times a day.
T: Last question, who are your celeb crushes?
Jason: Robert Pattinson! (Joking!)
Get to know the guys even better as they play Band Fastball with TWIST!
It's here, TWIST girls! For you WOW fans, TWIST is happy to bring you the group's first ever music video for their super-sweet balled "Unforgiven."
Video fact? The guys did the video on their own! WAY impressive.

Hey girls!
Have you heard of Justin Bieber? His first single "One Time" is all over the radio right now! If you haven't heard of him, let TWIST introduce you -- we were lucky enough to hang with the 15-year-old newcomer twice in the last week!
TWIST got a personal invite to Justin's acoustic performance at the Nintendo World Store in NYC yesterday -- check out our exclusive vids to watch Justin perform future hits "Lonely Girl" and our personal fave, "Favorite Girl" (below). Justin's debut album My World will hit shelves in a couple months (the countdown to Nov. 17 begins now!), and we're already hooked on the songs we've heard so far!
In between songs, Justin answered a few questions from fans, which included an invitation to prom! Too cute! He also played a few Nintendo games and signed autographs. We even scored one signed posted to give to one lucky reader! (To enter, comment this blog and be sure to include a valid email address!)
Tell TWIST, do you think Justin Bieber is an artist to watch out for? Is he destined to make it big? Give us your predictions in the comments!

Hey TWIST girls!
TWIST hung out with Make It or Break It star Cassie Scerbo in NYC last week! And let us tell you, she is nothing like her mean girl character Lauren! Cassie was so super-sweet and we had so much to talk about (check out future issues of TWIST for more from our interview!).

Hey TWIST girls!
Last week, we headed to the set of Step Up 3D in NYC! And we'll be the first to tell you -- it's going to be awesome!
First, the dancing is beyond amazing! They totally stepped it up (HA!) for this movie -- did we mention it's in 3D?! And you'll see a couple faces returning from the Step Up and Step Up 2: The Streets!
Coming back are Alyson Stoner (she was in the first one!) and Adam Sevani -- he's back as Moose! Also starring in the flick are newcomers Rick Malambri and Sharni Vinson -- they play each other's love interest! Basically, Rick's character is Luke, the leader of one dancing crew that is trying to recruit Moose, and win the World Jam dancing competition.
Unfortch, the flick isn't schedule to hit theaters until August 2010, but we know it's worth the wait! While on set, TWIST got a sneak peek at the 3D graphics for one of the big dance battles in the flick -- we were totally blown away! Plus, the flick was shot at about 70 locations in NYC. AND Step Up 3D will have more dance scenes than the previous two flicks!
Well, that's about all we can say about the movie for now, but stay tuned to future issues of TWIST and TWISTmagazine.com for the WHOLE Step Up 3D scoop!
Let's talk, are you interested in the third flick? Do you think you'll go see it in theaters next year? Give us your thoughts in the comments!
