Hello Charlotte Fans,
tonight Charlotte will be giving Montreal
something to talk about but until we hear
back from our Team in Canada we have a
large update for you. First off, while we
are on the subject of Montreal's concert,
why not take a peek at some pre-concert
press. Next
up, we completed some major updates to the
Voice of an Angel
Autobiography Microsite including the
a completely updated Promotional Tour
Schedule complete with book
signings in the New York, Detroit, San
Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle and
Washington DC areas. In addition to this
future Magazine appearances and one TV
appearance have been added. All this can
be found on the News
page of the Autobiography microsite.
Also appearing on the Autobiography site
is an exclusive
interview we completed with Jackie
Joiner, Editor of Voice of an Angel - My
Life (So Far). If that wasn't enough for
you we have added a link to an Audio
Sample of the Audiobook alongside the
previous sample
of the Hardcover. As you can see
things are starting to get exciting and
the buzz surrounding Charlotte's book will
only grow as we move forward. Stay tuned
for all the latest. During
the week you probably noticed a new
Magazine article was added from the UK,
this one was from
Star Magazine
"Charlotte Chats about filming her
new video in Jerusalem" (March
28 - April 9, 2001) Thanks
once again
to
UKMark
who has provided all eight of Charlotte's
magazine appearances in the UK this
month. Great work! On
Wednesday dotmusic held a Chat with
Charlotte as planned. It was great to see
the majority of the questions asked came
from CharlotteChurch.net viewers. If you
missed the Chat dont worry, we have it archived
here along with links to Charlotte's
other chats. Finally
we'll end with two media news items. First
you'll notice the big link up top (if you're
reading this morning) to a Radio Interview
with Charlotte on WHUD in New York. Simply
click the Yahoo logo either at 6:15AM or
7:45AM EST to hear the interview..be sure to
click a few minutes early to synchronise the
audio. If you have no idea what EST means to
you check
this link. If all goes well we'll have
the audio archived for you later today. Last
but not least, be sure to check the news
page for info on the repeat of
Charlotte's acting debut in North America,
yep Touched By
an Angel is repeating again on PAXTV.
Phew! Thats a lot but enjoy and keep
checking back this weekend for the latest on
Montreal.

Hello Charlotte Fans,
today is a big day for Charlotte as her
Video (Charlotte
Church in Jerusalem) is set to hit
stores everywhere. If you haven't
pre-ordered or are looking for a little
more info before going out and buying
today, visit our preview
guide. While were talking about the
news of today, be sure to remember that
Charlotte is going to be holding that Chat
@ dotmusic.com today so you only got a few
hours left to submit your questions
assuming you are reading this in the
morning. Visit the news
page for the info on how to submit a
question and times. As
far as updates for the site go we have a
whole bunch for today. The biggest one of
course is the launch of our promotional
site for Charlotte's
Autobiography: Voice of an Angel - My Life
(So far). This site has everything you
need to know about the book and it will be
growing as the weeks progress to include
some really neat features, namely an
interview with the book's editor and a
book/audiobook giveaway. Today we are
launching with an exclusive review of
Charlotte's Autobiography completed by
Steve our Senior Editor. Everything you
need to know is at the Voice
of an Angel - My Life (So Far) Microsite. The
next big update comes from the UK and
UKMark of course. It is a set of captures
and summary from Charlotte's
appearance on "London Tonight"
on Saturday. This was a really short
segment about the Picnic in the Park @
Hyde Park Media Event but I'll be you've
never seen photos of Charlotte tossing a
pizza. Check
it out here. Next
up is a larger update to the Arts Gallery
than usual as that part of the site nears
it's one year anniversary. Today we have a
new set of five drawings contributed
from Lisa in Taiwan. If you're a fan of
Charlotte art you got to check
these out. Kenny has a
new contribution in the Literary Arts
Gallery inspired by Charlotte's recent
performances of Bridge over Troubled Water
here.
If
you've been to the
forums you'll know we are testing a
really cool Chat Room that seems to be going
well thanks to all our testers as soon as
its all 100% we'll be having a regular
schedule there so more fans can interact in
realtime. Be sure to check the forums
today for all the latest on, Charlotte's
Video release, and her chat at dotmusic. The
transcripts will probably show up there
before here so keep an eye out in case you
miss the chat. Finally,
Roeland our Team Belgian leader has finally
got his domain name working so you can now
access our Belgian Affiliate@ CharlotteChurchFans.be
this joins our
Dutch Sister site run by DutchMark @ CharlotteChurchFans.nl
for solid Continental European coverage.
While we're on the subject here, if you are
planning to attend the Hyde Park Concert on
July 14th and live in Continental Europe
Roeland and DutchMark would like to hear
from you. To get in touch with them visit
their respective sites and let them know.
That is it for today, thanks for visiting,
- Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans,
today we're going to quickly bring
you up to date on some of the new items
that have been added during the
week. First off, a LOT has been
added to the News Page
so that's a good place to start.
Next it's taken over a
month but we can finally say the concert
preview feature is nearly filled in
with all the concerts on Charlotte's
schedule into mid June. The most recent
additions were Chicago (May 3rd) and
Boston (April 30). As we mentioned in our
last update Chicago tickets went on sale
Monday so you might want to hurry on
those.
Now that concert info is
in place it makes sense for you to keep a
watchful eye for possible book/cd signing
appearances in the areas that will be
having concerts. We already received an
advance notice on one book signing in Connecticut
which can be found on the News
Page about half way down.
Speaking of Charlotte's
upcoming book we're going to be
bringing our special site online dedicated
to the release this weekend. Inside you'll
find a complete review of the book as well
as a series of sections which will be
filled in as we progress closer and closer
to the official release. We've had the privilege
of reviewing the pre-release of this
wonderful book and we're really
excited to tell you all about it. Needless
to say it is must own for any Charlotte
fan.
Charlotte's other
release this spring, "Charlotte
Church in Jerusalem" the concert DVD/VHS
is also nearing release worldwide. You can
find copies of the VHS in North America
now if you look carefully. At any rate we
have updated the CC
in Jerusalem Concert Video Preview to
include: official track listing, more
retailer links, video covers and a video clip preview of
"La Pastorella" courtesy of Sony
Classical. Check it all out here.
Finally, Charlotte has
set the UK press abuzz over an interview
she gave in Heat Magazine. Instead of
reading it second hand we have placed the original
interview here which includes some
pictures as well. Charlotte speaks her
mind on a wide range of topics so it's an
interesting read. Check it out here.
Thanks go to UKMark yet again for getting
this scanned and ready the same day as it
hit the shelves. A big welcome to all the new viewers who
are visiting from links off of BBC,
ITV or other various news sites that
covered this story during the past few
days. Enjoy your stay.

Hello Charlotte
Fans, Charlotte is back home relaxing after what was
quite a successiful start to her 2001 tour. Today we
present her
most recent performance in Houston which took
place on Wednesday. The feature is complete with a
description of what Charlotte has been doing the
past week, fan reaction, photos, a special audio
clip and an excellent review written by Rachel, a
dedicated viewer and fan in Texas. The entire team
did a great job on this....check
it out.
Yesterday
we also updated the photos
section of the Charlotte, North Carolina concert
feature so be sure to run by that again.
Charlotte
also showed up a bit this weekend in the UK Press:
OK!
Magazine - View
Thanks to UKMark
The
Independent
- View
YOU
Magazine - View
Thanks to UKMark
The
OK! Magazine has some great pics in it so be sure to
take a peek at that..thanks goes to UKMark for getting
this scanned so quickly..simply amazing.
In
other news, you probably noticed up top the
announcement that Charlotte will chat on dotmusic.com
be sure to check the news page
for all the info on this event.
We've
updated the "Charlotte
Church in Jerusalem" preview page to include
DVD buying links for North America and UK so if you
were looking for those now is a good time to check.
Finally,
as we take a pause in-between concerts we will be
updating and correcting the Concert
Preview Feature to more accurately assist you in
obtaining tickets to the upcoming concerts. On the top
of that list are Boston and Chicago which will be
fully added this week. Chicago tickets go on sale
tomorrow so if you are really interested in this
concert we suggest you call the Chicago Theatre @
(312) 902-1500 or visit their site here.
Also it is important to note that one more date was
added to the revised schedule for the Hollywood Bowl
in Hollywood California and that is Thursday, July
19th. Keep checking concert
preview and news for the
latest. That is it for today...enjoy.

Hello Charlotte
Fans, we've finally completed our
coverage of Charlotte's concert in West Palm Beach,
Florida. I apologise for the technical problems
if you were trying to access this early this morning
or late last night but we had a slight glitch that
prevented us from uploading. I think you'll find the
article was worth the long wait though. Big thanks
to Lourdes for getting the pictures to me just a
little over 12 hours after the concert had finished
and writing up her thoughts on this brilliant
evening. Also a thanks goes out to Mike Gurrera a
fan and viewer who contributed his pictures from the
concert. If you were at the concert I'd love to hear
from you as well.
If that wasn't
enough concert news for you we've got some more and
this is really good news for California viewers.
Last week we reported that due to Charlotte's
concert in Hyde Park on July 14th the July 13th and
July 14th engagements at the Hollywood Bowl would be
cancelled. While that is still the case, Rick from
Team USA confirmed late last night that Charlotte
has rescheduled the Hollywood Bowl concerts for July
20th and July 21st so as usual this info has been
added to the 2001
Concert Preview Ticketing page
. This
is probably a bit confusing for those of you who are
planning or are at least thinking about the event
but I suggest calling the Hollywood Bowl with the
info provided on the 2001
Concert Preview Ticketing page to ensure you get
everything straightened out.
More
great news, this time for viewers in Connecticut..Charlotte
will be holding a book signing event in Madison to
promote her new autobiography. See the news
page for details.
Yesterday
Charlotte was in the UK pressies this time it was OK!
Express. UKMark scanned the article in and you
can read it here.
Charlotte's
new video "Charlotte Church in Jerusalem"
(VHS) should be showing up in a store near you soon.
Dave was able to go out yesterday and find it at
Borders in California. In case you were interested in
the track listing we have scanned the back cover here.
If you're still hoping to catch it on PBS you still
got time...be sure to read our PBS
viewing guide for help.
Finally,
we've completed a big news update to CCFans
Cymru, our site in support of the Noah's Ark
Appeal. The appeal is happy to announce they have
surpassed the half way mark towards building the first
stage of the hospital which represents £2.5 Million
in donations. In the same report we recieved it is
mentioned the last gala dinner supported by Charlotte
raised over £60,000 for the appeal. If you're
interested in reading up on a really interesting
project check out CCFans Cymru.
That's
the big update for today, lots of new items are being
worked on for the big promotion we are going to have
for Charlotte's autobiography so look for that to show
up later in the week. Also we can't forget Charlotte
is in Houston for her third concert of this leg of the
tour tonight. Joe and Dave are going to be handling
that one for us so that should be great as well.
Thanks for visiting and being patient for that West
Palm Beach feature to show up.

Hello Charlotte
Fans, as you might have noticed we have started
coverage of the 2001 Concert tour with the first
report from Charlotte, North Carolina USA where
Charlotte performed on March 8th. As in the past the
concert features start out pretty small and then get
bigger as we get more in from each event. Big thanks
goes out to Joe Briggs in Charlotte, NC for getting
the concert
review out so quickly. Pictures from the
Charlotte, NC event are on their way.
Last
night, as you
might know, Charlotte came to West Palm Beach, Florida
to perform her second concert of this tour. Lourdes
and I from Team USA were in attendance for this
brilliant event and we're working on putting the
feature together for display sometime in the next few
days. I'd like to give a special hello to all the
viewers we met at the concert and to all the new ones
who will be hopefully finding the site in the coming
days. Lots of cool stuff to come from Palm Beach
so stay tuned.
Today,
for an update we have new features of the week. The photo
comes from the Western Mail, it is of Charlotte
and Prince Charles on St. David's Day in Wales
after her performance with the Prince in attendance.
The feature story
is from yesterday's Sunday People in the UK titled
"This is My
Moment"
That
is it for today's short update...if you happened to
attend either of the two most recent concerts drop
us a line or if you'd like to talk to others in
attendance check out The
forums. We have an exciting week ahead as
Houston is on the horizon and we start to bring you
our microsite dedicated to Charlotte's upcoming
biography. Thanks for visiting and stay tuned for the
latest from the concert tour. -

Hello Charlotte
Fans,
if you've been
following along the past few months you'll know
today is the real start of Charlotte's 2001 Tour as
she will perform in Charlotte, North Carolina
tonight. If you're looking for some info on the
venue see the Concert
Preview Page.
You
probably noticed that short mention of a concert
appearance in the UK in the last update, today we
finally have put all the information together for you
and it involved switching some other events around as
suspected. Charlotte will be performing in London's
Hyde Park on July 14th for a concert with Luciano
Pavarotti. Before I go into more detail about that
it's more than noteworthy to mention that because of
this, the July 13 and July 14th appearances at the
Hollywood Bowl in California USA have been dropped.
If you pre ordered already I'm not sure what can be
done about this but contact the Hollywood Bowl for
more information. #'s can be found on the Concert
Preview Page. Getting back to the Hyde Park
event, we have posted all the info you'll need to
order tickets through Safeway Stores in the UK on the
Concert Preview Page so if you are interested in
attending this event the
Concert Preview Page is the best place to start.
Charlotte
will be on Canadian TV tonight @ 8:00 PM for CBC's
Opening Night Highlights from the Classical
Brit Awards. Check the News Page
for more info. Speaking of TV, be sure to check out
our PBS viewing guide
up top for directions on how you can see Charlotte on
PBS this month in North America.
That
is it for today, we are working on a very interesting
project to promote Charlotte's
soon to be released Autobiography thanks to the
wonderful people at TimeWarner, who really do care
about Charlotte's fans I'm happy to report. Part of
this project is an interview with the editor of the
book which I will be conducting next week. If you have
any questions you'd like to have asked drop
me an e-mail. Lots of interesting stuff to come
this weekend including yet another concert, this time
in West Palm Beach, Florida. Stay tuned.

Hello Charlotte
Fans, this
is a very interesting week ahead as Charlotte
kicks off a massive North
American concert tour in the most appropriate
place I can think of...Charlotte , North Carolina on
March 8th. Needless to say, there are a lot of
excited Charlotte fans in Charlotte.
Charlotte ends this week with a concert in West Palm
Beach , Florida on March 11th. Early this morning Charlotte's
official site posted that Charlotte will be
performing in at Pavarotti's last ever concert in UK
at Hyde Park on July 13th. Keep checking the news
page for more on this as it apparently causes a
conflict with the Hollywood Bowl dates.
Much
more on those during the week but first we want to get
to the most important item and that is Charlotte's
performance on PBS that starts airing this week and
has already been shown in some markets. There is a
moderate amount of confusion on how and when to catch
this performance so we've prepared a Charlotte
on PBS Viewing Guide to help you get the times and
schedules you need. If you need help, give it a try,
if you tried it but still couldn't find what you are
looking for let us know and we will do our best to
make it suit your needs. I personally caught the
broadcast here yesterday morning and without giving it
away you are going to be in for a real suprise..this
video is insanely great. So once again, if you need
help finding your schedule the viewing
guide is the answer.
Believe
it or not, they are still showing Grammy Recaps in the
states and yesterday E! TV Showed a Grammy Fashion
review...Charlotte was on for a brief moment and Dave
of Team USA was there to capture it. Go to our Grammy
Special to see the results.
Finally,
it is a new week so that means new features of the
week. Check them out here.
Remember to check the
Concert 2001 Preview Page for the latest concert
info that you may have missed during the week when we
made quite a few additions. Other than that do your
best to try and catch Charlotte on PBS and check back
throughout the week as we get closer to the opening of
this extensive Concert Tour. -
