A few days ago the news came out that the next single from Snakes & Arrows was to be The Larger Bowl. I then received conflicting information from a program director that the single was not The Larger Bowl, but instead was Spindrift. Now my source who originally told me that The Larger Bowl was the next single has informed me that he made an error when he read the shipping sheet that came with the single. The picture on the sheet says "Snakes & Arrows featuring Far Cry, Spindrift, and The Larger Bowl". Then it reads "purging the country/ac/heritage" markets with The Larger Bowl this Summer. Underneath it ... "Get caught up in the Spindrift for the start of Hurricane Season". Hurricane season started June 1st. So The Larger Bowl will be released as a single later this summer, but the single that was released to radio yesterday is Spindrift. Indeed, I've received confirmation that Spindrift is already playing in markets in Texas, LA, and Boston. Here's what the shipping sheet says about the Spindrift single:

To coincide with the start of the 2007 Atlantic Ocean Hurricane Season...Atlantic Records brings you the exciting new RUSH release that will leave you soaked and dizzy after one listen! "SPINDRIFT" from the band's # 3 Billboard debut record "Snakes & Arrows", rocks you like a hurricane on June 1! RUSH will hit the road June 13 in Atlanta and will continue a massive world tour through 2008!

So start spinning the "SPINDRIFT" today!

Sorry about the confusion.
