| There really are places where people
truly belive in peace. There are places where people do in fact come together,
and express that feeling, and all really is well. I think I managed to
go there recently. An amazing friend of mine helped me on a long journey
to actually stand in the middle of this place, and feel and live that wonderful
miracle. It startyed out with me stumbling into a recording in a studio
in the polish suburb of Greenpoint in Brooklyn. From there I have had the
chance to record so music, and with the faith and talent of the studio
owner, Tom, begin a journey I didnt even realise I was on. I got to stand
in the middle of a huge show in where everyone was having a good time,
joining together, and being people. It was a music festival, the "Polish
Woodstock". Thje largest open air festival in Europe. We were so fortunate
(with the loving help of Tom) To make it all the way there and see for
our selves, first hand, how great people, and other places can be. TO be
asked to even participate in this event is huge, and all I can say is how
honored I am to actually be accepted into such a place of true love and
hope. Crap, I can't say more about it all. We shared water with people,
laughs, and were given love and respect beyond meassure. I can never be
truly worthy of such an honor. Anyway, the bottom line is that hope does
exist, goodness and positive vibes honestey and truly do make a difference
in this often sick world we live in. I am a new deciple of hope, and truth,
and a positive end to this amazingly difficult but sometimes great life.
Suerte mi amigos! Si no te veo, te veo en la otra lado.

| We are back after playing a gig
in Poland called Przystanek Woodstock. What can I say about it? Getting
to go there, and meet some great people, and be a part of such a huge and
positive event was amazing. We wanna say thank you toYurek & Ola and
everyone there, it was an honor to be there in Poland and play this event.
I'll be writing a diary soon of our time there, to fully explain how great
it was to be a part of this. Here are a few Pictures that can do some of
the talking for us. Thanks, and enjoy.

No fights, no bullshit, just love
and respect, and something I had always hoped but somewhat pessimistcally
never thought could happen. Thank you so much POLAND. I hope I can give
back even some messure of what you have given me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
| I've been working on a new project,
with fellow Kray Rob. The band is called TAINADA. It's something I am really
proud of. I think the songs are fantastic. Basically it is a more aggresive
Krays. Atleast that's what some people say. I also play guitar and sing
in the band. Our first demo is posted on our myspace site. Here is a link
to it.
www.myspace.com/tainada The Krays LP is also a project I have alot of energy to begin. For the first time since our debut EP, Albee, one of the co-founders of the band reunites with us. Albee was a driving force in the band early on, and I am looking forward to working on this album. The collection of tunes are great and it sound be a fun time in the studio. Some songs will be old Krays songs that are classics, but were never before released There are plenty of killer new tracks as well. I'll let everyone know when this thing finally gets off the ground. So thats it. Stay tuned for Tainada.
Its something I am very excited for and proud of. I Think it's some of
the best songs I've written and I think the band has alot of heart. I think
fans of the Krays will find it right up their alley. I hope you can all
support it as you have supported the Krays these many years. Let me know
what you think of it. Take it easy,

"We live in a society in which spurious
realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big
corporations. We are bombarded
with pseudo-realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using
very sophisticated electronic mechanisms.
I do not distrust their motives. I distrust their power."

famously warned that those who give up essential liberty to obtain a
little temporary safety deserve
neither.
