The Starting Line have released a message, which can be read below, regarding their upcoming holiday show and current plans.

"As many of you know, we (The Starting Line) recently released our Live CD/DVD "Somebody's Gonna Miss Us". We all got together for the Release Party, and thought it would be fun to play a hometown holiday show this year, which is exactly what we're going to do on 12/29 at the TLA in Philadelphia.

Just to be perfectly clear, this doesn't mean TSL are back together and are going to make a record. It simply means that we're taking a break from our break, and wanted to play a fun show in Philadelphia and continue to focus on our lives outside of TSL.

To bring everyone up to speed:

Kenny is focusing on his new band, Person L , who just released a new record (The Positives) on Tuesday. I strongly recommend checking it out! They're currently on tour with John Nolan and Brian Bonz.

Mike is enjoying working a real job, spending time with his family, and playing in The Traded Series.

Tom is playing in Cheap Seats, who have been working with the production team Truth & Soul (Amy Winehouse, Adele), and Jerry Wonda (The Fugees, Shakira etc). They're sound is a blend of Motown, Philly Soul, and 60's sunshine pop.

Brian is hanging with his dog Potato, working a 9-5 job and keeping it real.

I (Matt), have been living in Brooklyn, NY and work at Red Light Management. I've been managing Hit the Lights, Fake Problems, Cheap Seats and working with Person L, The Starting Line. I have an office and a desk, and get to sleep in a bed every night.

We're all really happy with where we are individually, but have no idea when a full on TSL reunion tour will happen (2011?). So, if you're in the area, I would suggest coming to see the holiday show.

Tickets go on Sale on 11/21: http://www.livenation.com/edp/eventId/415404

Best,

-Matt"
