Today Rainbow Francks tweeted the following:

Looks like there's a chance the #Sga band may be getting back together on a new stage... More info to come...

I'm not allowed to say anything more right now... It's not a Gate thing though... Something else... Let your minds go... Hahahahahahahaha!

Good fun things in the works...

Hmmmm

[Hyndara71]

Mh ... not Gate-related but the (main)cast? Mh ...

Thanks for the information

[AlbinoMonkeyC]

oh shoot they're doing a musical....

[ZRFTS]

Maybe it's a dramatic ensemble project that's not sci-fi. That or they're going to appear in a SyFy movie in the future.

Intrigueing - I wonder what he means by SGA band; actors, writers, directors?

I would love to see some of the SGA cast together in a different project. A movie? A new series? Guest appearance on an exisiting show? A computer game? An internet project? Any of those would be great, I am wondering if he just means a convention though? While it would be great to have them together at a convention I would be a bit disappointed if that what it was.

What main folks? Isn't Rachel currently residing in Berlin (Germany)?

In the comments on his facebook page he wrote:
"Only 3 of us so far... Can't say which 3 yet... Damn contracts."
and another tweet:
"Big tings a gwan..."

Rainbow knows how to keep his followers on edge.

Now this does sound very interesting. I’m looking forward to find out more.

Turns out it's this project: "State of Syn" already announced by David Hewlett. So far it has David, Rainbow and Jewel Staite involved. It's "an interactive 3D motion novel starring Jewel Staite and David Hewlett - for online, tablets and smartphones."

Oh... that's a little disappointing...

[Lythisrose]

Oh... that's a little disappointing...

Yeah, I was hoping for something more to tell you the truth. Without Joe and Rachel (or Jason, but I actually didn't expect him to be involved), I'm a bit underwhelmed. Oh well.

[Falcon Horus]

It looks like a fun project but I had hoped for something more indeed.

Here are a few more details:

TORONTO/CANNES, March 28, 2012 /CNW/ - Shaftesbury and its award-winning digital media division, Smokebomb Entertainment, today announced casting and production details for State of Syn, a groundbreaking science fiction digital project. Starring Jewel Staite (Firefly, LA Complex), David Hewlett (Stargate SG-1, Stargate: Atlantis), and Rainbow Sun Francks (The Listener, Stargate: Atlantis), State of Syn (10 x five minutes) is a 3D-enabled digital motion novel for online, smartphone and tablet devices that combines live-action photography with animated hyper-real backgrounds. Commencing production in Toronto in early April, State of Syn will launch to consumers in summer 2012 and will also be offered to buyers as a standalone property for multiple platforms at MIPTV 2012 in Cannes.

Featuring 10 five-minute narrative episodes, State of Syn takes place in a futuristic society where instability reigns but one commodity remains accessible to all: technology. The storyline follows Annika Drake (Staite) and her friends who, following the unexplained death of her father, are pulled into a twisted mystery surrounding his former company, emerging tech giant Psylosense. Now run by her father's former business partner Aslin Kane (Hewlett), Psylosense is manufacturing a highly addictive new sensory experience called Vibe - a digital technology simulating a neurological condition called synesthesia - which is poised to become the new opiate of the masses.
