Are you still trying to figure out the "occupy" protests?

The majority of people I come in contact with have a very inaccurate view of what the whole Occupy Movement is about. Usually the people I talk with have very limited and distorted info, because of the medias failure to show both sides of the coin.So maybe i can clear up a little bit of what it is that's going on.

Of course I can only speak for myself and my inner circle but I can't say that I speak for us all.

With that said, think of it this way, HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW that want the world to stay on fossil fuels (gas, oil, coal etc) and keep running the planet into a collapse environmentally? If the answer is "none" then keep reading.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW who think its a good idea to take over the middle east for their oil, so we can sell back to our own people for a higher price than before the war? If the answer is "none" then keep reading.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW who want to keep seeing the buying power of the dollar decrease until a fucking candy bar is $6, and renting an shithole apartment is 2500 a month? Because every bail out is one GIANT step in that direction. If the answer is "none" then keep reading.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW who think they should give up to 40% of their earnings to a central bank, that is not a part of the us government, only so the money can be used for what? If the answer is "none" then keep reading.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW who are dead broke, but finally found a job, and are absolutely stoked to give a big chunk of their check back to a private bank that has been scamming the US people since 1913? If the answer is "none" then keep reading.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW who have to work two jobs or more because the buying power of the dollar can not support them on one job alone, but they don't mind all the stress and lack of free time. If the answer is "none" then keep reading.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW in their early 20's who simply can't afford to move out, or buy a car to commute to work? If the answer is "a bunch" then keep reading.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW that want to let Genetically Mutated Food, and other foods that contain known poisons and neuro-toxins into our grocery stores? If the answer is "none" then keep reading.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW who think we should continue to suppress cures for things like cancer because the cure is unprofitable, or will replace the profitable one.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW that want our schools to stay gov't controlled and continue to slide down the education ladder? If the answer is "none" then keep reading.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW who DON'T want to see humanity evolve into a place where our spirituality caught up to our technology. If the answer is "none" then keep reading.

Here is why none of the people you know want these things. Because people are good at their core, and no one wants violence, or starvation or any of the stuff we have on the planet right now. ALL PEOPLE ARE BORN WITH THE NATURAL DESIRE FOR HARMONY AND PEACE not war and unrest. Humanity is filled with the vast majority being good people not bad.

Who do you know who thinks killing for money is cool? No one. Sure you may have a friend who CLAIMS he would be down, but in the moment of truth they are full of shit.

So if humanity is peaceful and good, then why all this ugly shit on the planet? Why can't we just let technology, medicine and spirituality move forward naturally?

Because a very outdated and primitive 1% of the population still thinks it has the right to control the world through money and economics, even when its practices are destroying our whole planet. These people will suppress new developments and advancements that benefit all in order to keep control over the empire it has built. This 1% holds back cures for cancer and continues to sell people radioactive waste for the price of a small home, only so they can get cancer again from the radiation in 5 years. This 1% has pushed thousands of harmful products and medications through the FDA and on to the American people in the name of profit.

The more you dig and read the more you find out that the 1% and their influence on laws and regulations is behind just about every inhumane and shitty situation on the planet. So what's naturally going to happen when people wake up and see the wolf in sheep's clothing? Their gonna be upset and go out and protest so people that still don't know whats going on will start to at least wonder whats going on. Then the information can spread and the awakening can begin. Because once you see the truth right in front of you, you can never ignore it again.

People have been voting for decades to try to steer us off this course but all of our elected officials just answer to the 1% in the end of the day. And our elections over the last decade are becoming more and more obviously corrupt. The American people have lost faith in our system because it has been hi-jacked by the 1% and people have even started to see voting as a joke. It is obvious that you have two choices now, democrat puppet leader or republican puppet leader and the people are not buying into it like they used too.

In a nut shell the planet and its people are waking up, and in the process of overthrowing an outdated power structure to evolve forward as a planet.

After all the people see whats going on, the out come will be inevitable, and no government or body of people can stop it once everyone starts waking up. It's a new age and we don't need these leaders and the false securities they sell us. Humanity is ready to move forward with or without our current leaders. The 99% are done with the bullshit and ready to get on with evolution.

IF THE PEOPLE WILL LEAD THEN THE LEADERS WILL FOLLOW.

Remix a few tracks off the self titled album

I've decided to remix a few songs off the first album. So keep your eyes out for those releases sometime in the next 15 years.

TEN STRIP Ten Strip was a song I wrote about taking too much acid and that first initial wave of holy fuck that hits you in the face. Back in 98 it was written on a drum machine that had about 4 usable sounds and recorded in one take. Since then we have picked up dorf on keyboards and have access to much better gear so I wanted to go back and do a remix and see where it lead. For more or less the same reasons I decided to remix WHITE TRASH RETARD and KONA BLEND while we were at it. I figure we can add a few new electronic songs we did not release on the last album and these remixes and make a cool  EP.

How I listen to music.

I have a odd habit of listening to songs over and over. Most people hear a song and it evokes a feeling for them or a memory. For me it is the same the only difference is it does the same thing every time I hear it.

The 10000th time is the same as the first.

My record is about 2 and a half years of listening to the same song. I listened to this song until my CD player motor burned out. It played on repeat continuously the whole time. Of course the occasional power outage stopped it but I just reset it and kept going.

here is the link to the song if you feel like checking it out

Real food for real cheap

Its that time of year. For about 1-3 dollars you can get a packet of seeds.

For about $20 you can get a whole bunch of seeds of different stuff you like to eat.

Go out in your yard and plant them. Or better yet, tear out one of those decorative plants that already has its own sprinkler set up to water it.

Nothing is more rewarding than making a sandwich and walking out into your yard and grabbing fresh tomatoes, lettuce, chillies and an avocado, and a few lemons for lemonade. I encourage you to learn how to be less dependent on big corporations to feed you. This is not a radical concept, its normal everywhere else on earth.

When you taste real fresh food, you will realize the stuff at the grocery store is whack. If you have kids this is an awesome way to teach them something of value and spend time with them.

Time to go plant some tomatoes!!

Do you need to be someone you're not? Do you know yourself, or have you forgot? How did you become your identity? Are you blind or can you see? Who Controls your Reality? Do you need to dress like all your friends? Do you need to be a perfect 10? How did you become your identity? Are you blind or can you see? Who Controls your Reality? Can you turn inside and face your fears? Do you need approval from all your peers? How did you become your identity? Are you blind or can you see? Who Controls your Reality? When was the last time you were real? Have you forgotten just how it feels? How did you become your identity? Are you blind or can you see? Who Controls your Reality? Take a look around, are these your "friends?" Or do you close your eyes and just pretend? How did you become your identity? Are you blind or can you see? Who Controls your Reality?

You're probably right....

If you think working a shit job and struggling with debt is not the best way to live, You're probably right.... If you feel that most of what you learned in school is useless data, You're probably right.... If you see the system we live in as something we are all herded into and forced to participate in, You're probably right....

Not much has changed here on earth over the last few thousand years. There is still rulers controlling the masses, and holding back the evolution of man kind. They are still controlling the information we have access too, and attempting to occupy us with useless data. The only way to win is to unlearn the rules. Learn new and valuable data, like how to grow food and make clean water. How to make electricity and shelter. How to sustain yourself and your family without becoming a debt slave. Rethink the whole thing, start today. Be free tomorrow.

There is definitely something wrong here on earth, but if you forget all the crap thats been pushed into your head and just start thinking for yourself, you can rise out of the matrix.

May 7th RU36 show, Oakland Metro

Many of you have been asking for us to play an all ages show so here it is, and here is a little details about the show.

For a long time now we would all sit around after band practice and talk about cool shows that we have been too, and what kindda shows we would like to see.

All of us work in the music industry and go to a lot of shows so for us sometimes we feel jaded and bored with whats out there. And when you look around at some of these shows people seem like they feel the same.

So what makes a show good? I think first and foremost good songs = good show. You gotta have a good songwriter in the band. Seeing new stuff also makes for a good show, I like leaving an event feeling like I discovered a new artist to add to my iPod. Fun. Fun is very important. No Drama. No tough guy security routine. Cool people that are all having fun is contagious.

So this is what we are going to do. We are going to start a recurring event. We are going to call it "GONGALORPY". What exactly does gongalorpy mean?

It's a new word. I just made it up. It means that we have the freedom to put and electronic band, a metal band, a fire juggling midget, a beat boxer, a psychedelic dub step DJ, a stand up comedian and a blue grass band in the same room. Throw in some chess boards along the back wall, a couple people giving $1 a minute chair massages, some lasers and cool light and you have a party I wanna go to!

Wow, I just kindda spit that out as I was typing it but the more I read it the more doing a giant mixed show sounds like a really cool idea.

I mean when you think about it, watching 4 bands that all sound the same sucks. Why not have some variety? Why not have a whole room full of variety.

That's worth going out to see. That's what we are going to start putting together. Gongalorpy. What a concept.

UFO Sighting

I was driving in Brentwood with my friend Chris tonight and I got that old familiar feeling I get when ever I have contact. So I lean forward to look up in the sky through my windshield and right on cue I see a bright blue light in the sky followed by another one a few seconds later. The two of them were moving back and forth and hovering, changing colors from blue to red and various shades of white and yellow, with an occasional green flash. For the most part they stayed blue though.

I pulled over and we watched them for a few minutes before they "turned off" and then we got in the car and drove off.

People always tell me that "they would freak out if they saw one" but the funny thing is that everyone who has ever seen one with me has been totally calm and more excited and stoked than scared.

If you want to see one its easy, look up in the sky more often.

Tsunami Hysteria

This is amazing. It absolutely blows my mind to see it in action.

Not the Tsunami, I'm talking about the fear machine that has everyone freaked out. Take a look around, you can see all the visions of Apocalypse being pumped into everyone through the media machine.

At times like these you can see how Hollywood and the mass media really has penetrated into everyone's psyche and embedded it with fear.

First off Japan has survived dozens of Tsunamis and a few nukes, they will bounce back. Sure the situation sucks but it is what it is.

Take a look at how watching videos of a 12 foot wave on the other side of the globe fills you with fear of the "end times". Just consider this for one second. Maybe the shit your watching on your screen is deliberately conditioning you to mold your belief system so that you will shrink with fear and be easily conned by the man behind the curtain.

Turn off the TV people, Learn to meditate and push the images and programing back out of your subconscious mind and start thinking for yourself again.

The whole game is rigged and there is only one way to win, unlearn the rules then you're ready to begin. Once you cease to be afraid you can start taking steps toward REAL freedom.
