Acid Garageband Loops and Royalty Free Music - Flash music

Tuesday June 12, 2007 - Garageband Loops - Acid Music Loops - Royalty Free Music - Flash Loops - Guitar Loops - Hip-Hop Loops - Thats what it is all about!! Inner Rhythm Studios has a great selection. Well, Inner Rhythm had 257 visitors yesterday! Wow! Another record day! It's so sweet to see our efforts bear fruit. 1320 got together last night to put our studio back together and discuss our next move. There is talk of a block party in Sebastopol on July 3 or 4, maybe both days. I don't think we will make any money, but I'm sure we will have a party! We have practice tonight, so we will talk more about it then. I plan on working on two songs for sure. I want to play 'What I Got' and 'Walkin on Sunshine'. These are two songs that need work. I just finished working out again today. I got on my treadmill and actually ran 5.2 miles! It took me 55 minutes. I feel great! The workouts have definately helped my energy level. I'm going to need it for all of the jams that keep presenting themselves. If our project can stay together, there is the possibility that we may be able to play the Health and Harmony fair next year. That is a kick-ass concert to play. We would be playing along side seriously famous groups. Anyway, I'll have some more audio to post hopefully tomorrow. Peace out....Russ

Breaking News

Diamonds are Forever
If you knew me well enough, you would expect me to jump on this story. I have to summarize the situation myself, so bear with me. Apparently early humans in North America, Asia and Europe were mostly obliterated by a comet that exploded in the atmosphere approximately 12,900 years ago. Leading scientists believe large areas of icepack were melted by the intense heat. In their model, ocean levels were suddenly increased as most of the northern hemisphere was burned to a crisp by fireballs falling from the sky.Early human legends relate a Great Flood or cataclysmic situation that destroyed most of the plant and animal species known to the primitive humans who survived. Please read the full story here. I hope humankind is not so distracted by their ploys to dominate one another that they miss the opportunity to prevent a mass extinction from the heavens. It is our duty to preserve the world for future generations as best we can. I think near-earth object detection and a planetary defense against them should be one of the most important "national security" programs in all countries with the ability and technology to do so.

Tonight is rehearsal, so I don't have much to relate yet. Tomorrow's post should have more about upcoming shows, and hopefully, we'll have new live studio tracks for you soon.


Political Punditry

Check out this story from the Daily Kos about how Rome changed from a Republic to an Empire. It made me wonder about the state of our Republic's health and well being.

Breaking EcoNews
Think Progress has a post here that may get you hot under the collar.
The deniers of global warming are still spewing disinformation and are funded by $3.43 per gallon gas.
It's like you just found out the pusher-man has been paying your family doctor and the local health dept. to convince to you ignore every other doctor in the world who disagrees that the horrible nasty addictive shit he's selling is good for you, and then raising the price because it's "hard to get", all the while sitting on so much, it would blow your mind and make you want to...well, I think you get it.

Looks like June is the next show, but I'm not yet clear on the date. Stay tuned for more info. Tomorrow is a rehearsal, sans Laird. We've had a good break, so now it's back to the grind. I call it a labor of love....

Last night we all decided to scrap practice and chill out. We played 3-4 songs and left before 9 pm. Rocking out 4 days in a row is a bit exhausting. Stay tuned for new studio outtakes as soon as we can post them. If you are new to our blog, please check these out. They are raw studio madness, not finished product so enter at your own peril...

Religion - Christian Perspectives

Hello Everyone. My topic today is about religion. Perhaps it is because of the passing of Jerry Falwell (scourge of society). I was digging through some old emails that I wrote to a girlfriend of mine. This anonymous person is a Jehovah’s Witness and is tormented by guilt. I wrote her this letter a few years ago. I thought some of you might enjoy reading it, so here it is….

Dear *******,

Here are some examples of forgiveness: King David had a man killed because he wanted to have sex with his wife. God forgave him. Have you killed anyone for sex? Don't you believe that your sins pale in comparison to King David. How about Jesus? He forgave a prostitute of all of her sins. Have you screwed as many people as a prostitute? If Jesus forgave her, why wouldn't he forgive you? The bible says that Jesus died as a blood sacrifice to atone for mankind’s sins. Accept the gift that God gave you! You are already forgiven in his eyes. Stop walking around hating yourself! This is man's way, not God's! 10,000 elders could stand in front of me and tell me that I am condemned. Are they more important or carry more weight than the sacrifice of Jesus Christ who died so that my sins could be forgiven? I don't think so! Jesus was brutally butchered so that we can live free - so that we can have joy and happiness.

I know that the things that I am saying are considered heresy / apostasy. You must think about these things, though ****. I know that you don't like to think. You like to feel. This is why there is a national anthem! Music makes people feel. Many times, it is easy to control people thru feeling. No one stops to think, "hey what’s going on here?" when they are caught up in a feeling. You feel the closeness, the togetherness, the oneness of belonging to a group. It is comforting to be a part of something greater than yourself. This is how humans do things - tribes, villages, states, religions. There comes a time in life when we must think about things, or else we will just go with what is easiest - what everyone else is doing - what we have always been told to do. That is not searching for the truth. That is conforming to the social norm. What can be wrong with questioning? If the truth is the truth then it holds up to scrutiny, right? That’s what makes it the truth. We must ask ourselves a fundamental question: does God want us to walk around feeling guilty all of the time, afraid that we are going to perish at Armageddon? This is control by fear. Using the emotion/feeling of psychological fear to manipulate the mind. Does God need to manipulate thru fear? No! God is love remember? The fruits of the spirit are Love, joy, peace, goodness, kindness, faith, long suffering. I am a father. I want my children to have JOY!! Isn't God more loving and understanding than me? How much more does he want you to feel Joy?

I am afraid to send this email to you. I am afraid because I know what these words represent. Your wonderful father and brother, how could they be wrong? Rusty has no right to say these things!! Who does he think he is anyway? Maybe they weren't wrong. Everyone must find his or her own path. They walked their paths with dignity and honor. You are always trying to please everyone else, *** - your family, the congregation. You are a spirited, bright soul, ****. This is how God made you. It is difficult for you to follow in their footsteps. You are going against your natural flow. You try and try, but there is a yearning, a longing that goes unfulfilled. You read the publications, you study and attend 5 meetings a week, but something is still restless inside of you. It is not this way for everyone! The path that you walk is easier for some because it fits their disposition. Jesus said that he was the end of the Law. He said that the law would now be written in the hearts of men/women. How many publications and books do we need to serve God? You shine like the sun, ****. Your light is beginning to break through the illusion that you have found yourself in. You may brush these words off now as irrelevant, but eventually you will come to understand. It really all comes down to love or fear. Which is the stronger? Shall we live for the illuminating inspiration of Love, or shall we cringe in fear at the thought of death and destruction? How do you think Jesus would answer? He would tell us to have FAITH in his sacrifice. He would tell us that he died so that we could have joy and peace. He did not die so that we could hate ourselves! This is the GOOD NEWS!

I love you more than life itself ******. I always have and I always will. I would gladly, without hesitation die for you! I would walk through the fires of illusion and darkness just to be by your side. I would travel to the ends of the Earth to find you if you were lost. If you hate me and fear me because of the things I have said, then I will go away from you. I don't want to, though.
Rusty

Wow man, yeah.... We had a hoot of a time at practice last night. The energy is high and the dynamics are improving. The humor is a bit extreme at times, but hey what the f*%k. If you can't take a good ribbing once in a while then you are taking yourself too seriously! I am sure our next gig will be awesome. Stay tuned for dates, times and places!

Obituaries


Well folks, let us mourn the passing of the Right(wing) Reverend Jerry Falwell at 73, leader of the Moral Majority. This pugnacious, intolerant individual did a lot to propagate a very socially destructive agenda since back in the Reagan days, helping to lay the groundwork for the Neocon takeover of the Republican Party, resulting in the horror that is the imbroglio in Iraq. There is a question of what will become of the Christian Conservative movement, but there is an abundance of idiots to fill the void. Let us pray the influence of religious extremism in government dies with him. Still he is a human being, and death comes to us all. Rest In Peace.

Odds & Ends

According to Answers.com a "Dragon Lady" is:

1. A powerful or domineering woman.
2. A dangerous and seductive woman; a femme fatale.

My guess: she's both!

Enjoy!
