Dia Frampton of Meg & Dia updated fans on the group’s blog at MySpace on Tuesday (October 21) about plans to post a new song on Friday, which will be featured on the charity compilation album ‘Take Action’. She writes:

So, now to the song business. Blah. Music.. the boring part AGAIN! I am still trying to beg Warner Bro. to just hire a freakin’ team of song writers for us. As I am sippin on my lemonade, they keep bothering me, and I always reply with, “What? You mean I actually have to WRITE songs too?”

But anyhow, after the lemonade, (and gingerbread) And NOOOO FOOD FOR 7 DAYS! (Uhm…yeah, went on a little spiritual, mind bending fast…uhm, long story. Crazy. And tomorrow is the last day..And let me tell you, my mind is sooo clear now!. I mean, I am constantly seeing birds dancing around my head in a halo, and…oddly enough, floating chocolate cakes…!!… like saucers… everywhere in my house. No one else sees ‘em. So I decided fasting makes you insane. For all you very religious people out there… gee whiz. I commend thee, and I am so sure God does too!

Focus. Song. Song. (sorry, I end tomorrow. No food…. This computer screen…oddly looks like a banana split. And you see it too? Thank Goodness! Whew!)

The Song is called, “Halloween.” (Oh how convenient! Ya, we actually have some more songs in the works lately. Meg and I have been feeling really emotional and musical lately. We have new songs called, “Turkey day” and “The 4th of July” as well.

No. No no no no. No. NO. The coincidence that it is October, and the coincidence that the song is called Halloween, are simply…well, coincidence. Ok? We do not see Pumpkins in the street and run home to our guitars because we are so inspired to write. Sorry. We don’t. That is why we have bands such as X and also, another, exhibit X. (Not gonna name names. I am not that big of a weiner! I hope. My mom says I am not). (By the way, my mom, ((who is asian and says…uh, funny english things sometimes)) (It is her second language! Give her a break!) said, the other day, as my little sister came limping in from basketball practice with a sprained ankle.) “Oh Yoboe (that means, sweetheart in korean), Nikki twisted her winkle!” If you don’t find that funny. Don’t listen to our music. I can’t stand the thought of someone listening to our music without a sense of humor.

Dia Frampton of Meg & Dia checked in with fans on the sibling founded group’s blog at MySpace on Tuesday (October 14), sharing a story about sharing music with her younger sister. Dia writes:

So the other day, I was just hanging around my little sister (15 years old), in my room, listening to some tunes, talking about books and boys and whatever normal girls talk about, when she asked if she could get some music from my computer. Of course, the answer was, “Yeah, of course. Gimme your I-Pod kiddo.”
After fiddling with her I-Pod connected to my computer for sometime, with weird “popper uppers” coming up every two seconds saying, “This I-Pod is not updated. Or, This I-Pod Data blah blah blah is not functioning properly” I let her I-Pod go.
“Sorry. I guess your I-Pod is a little funky. It won’t connect to my I-tunes. No Modest Mouse for you I guess. Go hook her up to Meg’s computer.”
That didn’t work either.
Her I-Pod, I suppose, was really funky.
So I said with some reluctance,”Bummer. I will just have to show you some new tunes in the car.”
But after five minutes, I returned to her room.
I brought her back to my room, and pulled out my “secret stash.”
An entire pint of hash and therapeautic weed I had brought back from Europe.
No. Not really.
My CD and Record collection I have been building since I was 9 years old!

Hey ya’ll.
Last day of tour…and we are pretty excited to get home.
Just kidding.
We are not going home right away. We are flying to Los Angeles to get our hairs done and our make ups done and take some photos for the album cover. I am trying to convince everyone to just take a huge picture of me ice blocking down a hill and putting that on as the record cover. I think it would make it go platinum. (Ice blocking is something Utah people do because we are bored, and don’t go to bars or what not. What you do , is you sit on a piece of ice. Wrap a towel around it. And fly down a hill. It is actually pretty dangerous, but I am a very, VERY dangerous person. I am a crazy, INSANE person.)
I am a really very wild person.
But still, I think that would make a great cover. No one is digging it though.
Anyways, photos…awesome. I am so bad in front of a camera, but we will see what happens.
Record comes out January…!
And boy oh boy do I love Mexican food in Utah.
And boy oh boy, thank you EVERYONE so much for coming out to our first headlining tour. So nice to see your smiling faces…:)

much love

dia

p.s. Carlo’s birthday the other day. So amazing.
P.s.s. Escolar has been banned from some states because of some kind of weird chemical or something found in it, but I am still going to eat it here in Utah, on Strawberry fields.

A year end thank you from Meg & Dia set to ‘Roses’, from the Draper, Utah indie pop act’s second album ‘Something Real’, has been posted online. Dia Frampton said in a bulletin to her MySpace friends, “We are so grateful to be with family and not on the road for once for this holiday and we hope you can spend it with your family’s too!”
