The Residents' Official News Blog was a news blog maintained by Big Brother of The Cryptic Corporation beginning in August 2003, previously known as the Official News BOG (or simply BOG) until April 2007.
The BOG became The Cryptics' (and thus, The Residents') main outlet for communication with their fans until the website's redesign in 2008.
This page collects posts made to this news blog in September 2007, as archived on archive.org, transcribed to this wiki by a Mysterious Spanish Lady.

- The Residents with the London Sinforietta
- Yes it was indeed The Residents who hit the stage at Milan's Septembre Musica Festival last Friday night performing "For the Benefit of Mr. Kite." The group joined other musicians in a celebration of the 40th anniversary of The Beatles Sgt. Pepper album, a project in association with the London Sinfonietta.
- The Residents followed on the heels of Marianne Faithful's moving "She's Leaving home" with a bit of a romp in line with their carnival interests. Though lasting only three minutes, The Residents set themselves apart from the other performers rather quickly with their quirky take on the song despite the more faithful to the original arrangements of the Sinfonietta and rock musicians, Baby Lemonade.
- The Residents had said they were doing this to have a bit of fun after months of being holed up with the more serious tasks required by their soon to be released album, The Voice of Midnight. They emphasize that they are not working on a Beatles project, nor is this indicative of any tour plans.
- The orchestra was under the baton of Jurjen Hempel (pictured with The Residents).
