Live, in front of a studio (okay, a microphone) with an audience, AAUK wrote:
"At the end of Summer of Sonic 2009 I asked everyone who they’d like to see at the 2010 Summer of Sonic the near universal response was Crush 40. Since then we’ve not said anything on the matter, but I can today confirm that the Summer of Sonic 2010 will play host to the legendary rock group CRUSH 40 this year!

We’ve been rather fortunate actually, what you guys don’t know is that the staff – namely myself and T-Bird (who has been invaluable in this occuring and deserves your thanks) have been making private overtures to C40 since late last year with the aim of possibly having them at a potential SOS 2011 as we thought we’d need that long to arrange a hole in their hectic schedules. Nethertheless the opportunity has presented itself this year. So minor miracles AND ahead of schedule. Not bad eh?

Both Johnny Gioeli and Jun Senoue will be joining our already incredible roster for the day (we’re not even finished announcing stuff yet) , and you, the fans will have the rare opportunity to come along and meet the band members! For those of you who have been living under (after presumably being chased by) a rock, Johnny Gioeli has been busy blowing away audiences for nearly twenty years with his incredible vocals, fronting acts such as Hardline and Axel Rudi Pell. Teaming up with Jun Senoue to initially form band Sons of Angels, they later became Crush 40. Gioeli’s powering voice has become synonymous, with a huge number of Sonic the Hedgehog title tracks including Open Your Heart (Sonic Adventure), Live & Learn (Sonic Adventure 2) and I Am…All Of Me (Shadow the Hedgehog).

Jun Senoue is one of the most influential composers in the Sonic the Hedgehog universe, having worked on Sonic titles as early as 1993. Sound directing some of the most prolific soundtracks to date including the Sonic Adventure series, Sonic Heroes and Sonic & The Black Knight to mention but a few, Senoue has become infamous for his musical direction as well as his musical prowess, with his trademark guitar work becoming the staple of countless Sonic the Hedgehog titles. He’s also composed and produced all the music for the upcoming SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 4 Episode I.

Jun and Johnny will also be answering any questions you might have in a Crush 40 Q&A event on stage. They will also be available for a quick chat in the afternoon in a meet and greet session, where you can bring along your Crush 40 memorabilia to have signed!

Now did anyone else think the fact we said the event would be going on a bit later than previous years was a bit odd? Anyone catch that? No? Well there’s a reason why and this is where you get VERY excited. We are delighted to reveal that Crush 40 will be treating Summer of Sonic fans to a very special performance on stage at the end of the show, playing a selection of fan-favourites that will rock you to your core in their first public gig since the Tokyo Game Show in 2008 and their very first in the West! All for FREE as part of the Summer Of Sonic experience.

You’re not going to want to miss this year’s convention… it truly will be way past cool!"

So... excited? If you're coming to SoS, that is. You probably will be.

True that. And more Importantly: I could care less about them.

Generally, if you don't understand a contraction I've used and it has one or more apostrophes in it, try saying it aloud. I just write exactly how I speak, after all, and usually people can understand what I'm saying when I use these sorts of contractions aloud.

okay then, wouldnt wanna mess with you and your...contractions

anyways, back on topic.
Whats with all the un-excitement? (with the Sonic fans here) even for this, Id be glad C40 got out and did stuff, even if I didn't get to go.
(well...I still wanna see some kinda webcast on this)
but...Idunno, maybe cause one of the few things that make a Sonic game generally awesome these days (even to the not really Sonic fans) is their doing...yes, the music, awesome since the first game. Produced and Directed by Jun since S3&K I think.
and then Johnny came along with a voice! (man what a voice)
BTW
have any of you ever heard any of their other tracks? besides videogame music?, I hope they play some non-videogame music too, it be like their time back as SoA
have you guys heard "Rev'n up"?
Thrill of the Feel :Revvin'Up


howabout this?
Thrill of the Feel :Fuel Me


do you guys know how old "Open your Heart" is? Waaaaay older then Sonic Adventure itself
Thrill of the Feel :Open Your Heart

okay, not that much older, but about 2-3 years in between...still cool.

...so yea, they are a very respected band in my book...reminds me of good 'ol hard rock, like the Scorpions, Rush, ACDC, but all in one modern feeling, in your face, awesome smoothie of KickAss! (yes, I just said that)

Yeah, I've got all the songs from the remake of that album. My faves are Revvin' Up and Watch Me Fly.

Fun fact: Did you know Crush 40 (or Sons of Angels as they were then known) was originally formed to do the soundtrack for some SEGA racing game? (said soundtrack being the "Thrill of the Feel" you're getting those YTs from)
I didn't for a while. So I was wondering why all of them seemed to be about racing. =/

Sega Rally, had it for the Saturn..only cool for all the Sega star cameos...
(Idunno, everyone thought it was the best racing game at the time, I just couldnt get into it)
and since they already had songs about fast paced..stuff and actions in a progressive tune, why not put'em in a Sonic game? tada!,lol
