What floats in the air and glows red all over?

The tower is a place Santa can't miss!

Mmm we are loving the holiday music going around. This time of year is when we light up the tree to spread our spirit with Hollywood. Last week we had our annual Capitol holiday party full of Beatles Rockband and 70s/80s tunes. It was a blast, and while walking over to the venue, Brad was gifted with the sweetest new nick name ever, Lieutenant. Yeah, I'm a bit jealous haha. Unfortunately, our team couldn't get into the rockband competition this year, but we still had a great time under the disco ball.

We're now in the midst of Hannukah and have only a little more than a week left until Christmas and Kwanzaa, so if you're running behind on gifts, or want an easy way to get ahead of the game, simply pick up some albums of our EMI/Capitol artists or get to posting ShareThis links like crazy to win signed prize packs. They make for great stocking stuffers and are super easy to wrap ;)

It was a big year for our artists with David Guetta, Alice In Chains, and Katy Perry all receiving Grammy Nominations, so big-ups to them and to you guys for supporting. Alice In Chains was nominated for "Best Hard Performance" for their single "Check My Brain," and Mr. Guetta was pretty stoked and surprised to receive 5 nominations
while Katy rocked a nom for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Hot N Cold."

This past weekend, Pejman represented at KROQ's Almost Acoustic Christmas show at the Gibson Amph at Universal. He saw 30 Seconds to Mars and Alice In Chains absolutely kill it. At one point Jared Leto ended up in the sea of a crowd being held up by fans on the floor.

Pej also met up with some great Alice fans and stamped everyone with a sticker.

Lastly, to help with your gift list, EMI is running a special contest where prize packs are awarded everyday. Visit the site below for your chance to win.

Keep up the great work teamers, and enjoy the holidays! Please take note that we will NOT be back in the office from Dec 26 until January 4 so if you need to be restocked on lifestyles, send us an email ASAP :) and stay tuned. We've got some exciting stuff coming your way in 2010! Woot!

30 Seconds To Mars

Hey Teamers!



It's been a while since we've updated you all. I hope you're all out there enjoying your copy of the much anticipated album THIS IS WAR by our very own Thirty Seconds To Mars. If you haven't already bought your copy and live in the LA area head over to The Hive to buy your copy and have it signed by all the members of the band. 30STM will also be doing an acoustic show following the signing at The Hive! Head over there today from 1-5 to catch all the action.






Here's a picture from last nights set. What are you waiting for?? Go get yourself in line and get ready for a good night. The Lieutenant aka Brad and Pejman have just left the tower and are heading over to The Hive as we speak.

You're probably wondering why Brad is now known as the Lieutenant aren't you? Last night as everyone at the tower ended work we all head over to Boardners for our annual Christmas Party and ran into some interesting Hollywood usuals who refer to Brad as the Lieutenant. Hence the new name. When you call the office to speak to him please refer to him as the Lieutenant haha he'll love it!

The Christmas party was great, this is the time where everyone lets loose and boogies down. The street team never disappoints with our amazing dancing skills that we showcased last night. Pictures soon to come!

After the Christmas party everyone headed over to Vanguard to watch our very own, Snooooop! Snoop always brings his A game at every show and never disappoints. If you haven't already bought his new album MALICE N WONDERLAND check it out today! I have that album on repeat in my car and we can't stop playing it here at the office.

This was a short and sweet blog but we'll be back with more Tales from the Street Team Office at the end of the week.

Much Love

Capitol Street Team
