Fight Test

I thought I was smart

I thought I was right

I thought it better not to fight

I thought there was a virtue, in always being cool

So it came time to fight

I thought "I'll just step aside"

And that the time will prove you wrong

And that you would be a fool

I don't know where the sunbeams end

And the starlight begins

It's all a mystery

Oh. To fight is to defend

If it's not now then tell me when

Would be the time

That you would stand up and be a man

For to lose I could accept

But to surrender I just wept

And regretted this moment

oh that

I was the fool

I don't know where the sunbeams end

And the starlight begins

It's all a mystery

And I don't know how a man decides

What's right for his own life

It's all a mystery

'Cause I'm a man, not a boy

And there are things you can't avoid

You have to face them

When you're not prepared to face them

If I could I would

But you're with him, now it'd do no good

I should've fought him

But instead I let him

I let him take it

I don't take much comfort in the family that surrounds or circles me but seriously I wish all the best to you and your family in this trying time.

get the hell out of Dodge

do not post anything that is defamatory about any members of jambands.ca.

do not argue with members in the open forums. Use the private messaging system or email if you have something 'unkind' to say to someone.

Slightly ironic for a massive cluster fuck.

I want any intellectual property belonging to one Luke Bowden, aka zero removed from this website as soon as possible. Then delete the zero account. Any IP I need I will cull from archive.org. I will keep the kung address in the time being.

everything must go

I made a private request I am clarifying publicly that all record of the posts of one 'zero' should be expunged as soon as possible from the portal www.jambands.ca. I do not relish nor intend legal action but it seems to be very easy to delete threads and posts so perhaps it is easier for an administrator to do than pouring over countless posts.

Thank you in advance.

I'm, young H.O., rap's Grateful Dead

Deeps you are not interested in honesty you are too defensive for that. Unfortunately the Droops have both more skill and more heart than WTTS - that's okay. Green Go wasn't a flavour of the week, the Droops aren't a flavour of the week - they're bands that are going somewhere.

If WTTS wants to go somewhere they should abandon about 85% of their repertoire immediately. The progressions have been practised to death and there is little difference from rehearsal to stage- it's all pretty rehashed. Sorry, don't shoot the messenger. The guy who has made it his life's aspiration to know something about Canadian Music Culture as opposed to doing back end at an insurance company.

What the hell are you waiting for

[sighs] Look what you made me do, look what I made for you

Knew if I paid my dues, how will they pay you

When you first come in the game, they try to play you

Then you drop a couple of hits, look how they wave to you

From Marcy to Madison Square

To the only thing that matters in just a matter of years (yea)

As fate would have it, Jay's status appears

to be at an all-time high, perfect time to say goodbye

When I come back like Jordan, wearin the 4-5

It ain't to play games witchu

It's to aim at you, probably maim you

If I owe you I'm blowin you to smithereeens

Cocksucker take one for your team

And I need you to remember one thing (one thing)

I came, I saw, I conquered

From record sales, to sold out concerts

So muh'fucker if you want this encore

I need you to scream, 'til your lungs get sore

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Feeling so faithless lost under the surface

Don't know what you're expecting of me

Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

And every second I waste is more than I can take

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I've become so tired so much more aware

I'm becoming this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

I've become so numb

Can I get an encore, do you want more (more...)

I've become so numb

So for one last time I need y'all to roar

One last time I need y'all to roar

Mike Bouchard/Andre Bouchard,

Please delete everything ever posted by 'zero' if this is not easy to do please tell me the easiest way for me to do this personally.

If you cannot comply please inform me and I will begin to slowly delete all previous posts - I might consider legal action though truthfully.

sincerely,

Luke Bowden

jokes on you, BBBBBBBBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

You're a massive fucking loser, phony, bullshit faker and I hope I never meat you. That's true of most people on here though because, let's be honest, there's a whole lot of lurkers who like to bitch and gripe about this kung/zero guy and about 10 of you actually 'know' him which is to say NOT AT ALL.

You love the fireworks though don't ya?

zero RIP

kung RIP

Sorry I didn't get past unneccessarily rude as laughable as that is.

a lot of good writers find ways to make equally scathing remarks without resorting to grade-5 name-calling and potty-mouth tactics. label what you write whatever you want, new journalism, whatever. nobody's gonna read it.

Did you actually use the term potty-mouth? Like if Hunter S. Thompson and Tom Wolfe were the New Journalism in the fucking sixties, Andrew Dice Clay was the 80's, acid rotted your fucking skull in the 90's- then what's acceptable today.

Are you a total fucking idiot AD? The lack of a right to, let me get this clear, be 'unneccessarily rude'. This is just a thought here, a little one, but I'm pretty sure if hate mongers like Ernst Zundel can play ball I can tear a little hippy ass every once in a while. That may have been the single most CANADIAN thing you could have possibly said i.e. cozy political correctness (disguised racism and hatred) over Charter Rights and Freedoms. Read some Chomsky, get a clue (and mind you though I have no idea who the 'real' AD is I thought/think I like you).

You're right you were the wood, they were the fire. What kind of wood is best for fires?

NorthernHeads forum never happening. NH is my IP.

You're right about the BowDown part.

Its none of your concern.

feet got burned

You've made being a head in Canada into an embarassment and a joke. My Head is Dead but it's not that heady. It's well past time to deliver Canada from the doldroms of insufficient jamband drugged out wankitude.

Why are we a laughingstock and a joke to the rest of the music industry? Because we're a laughingstock and a joke.

I'm still kicking it but just long enough to rape your IP looting asses without lube as hard as you have mine for fucking YEARS. Come Waste Your Time With Kung. Fuck Y'All.

911 Is a Fucking Joke, especially when the Kittens cover it, but more than anything Charter Rights and Freedoms are a FUCKING JOKE. Fuck Y'All. I have never been so disappointed with this 'community' - and trust me I use that term EVER so loosely. Fuck Y'All.

I'm curious if you understand this issue's complexity, yes in a somewhat patronizing way.

I know a lot about land conservation because the love of my life was/is the Executive Director of the Ontario Farmland Trust. She has fought and apparently won concessions from the Conservative government around issues surrounding donating ecologically or agriculturally significant lands as a private citizen. Currently or previously you would have had to pay a capital gains to donate land- which is clearly proposterous. The Conservatives apparently realized this. I'm not aware that this announcement in King City today so much is pork barrel spending as prudent partnering.

Exactly.

It was on live on CTV newsnet at about 11:15. It was a massive coup for the Conservatives. Not coincidental whatsoever that it took place a day after the Quebec debate. He sounded good and fluent in French and went back and forth. Fielded a question about the debate last night. Generally looked like a rock star in a spin-free zone and everyone was laughing along with him and Baird the Transport Minister. Seriously it was a major moment and almost proves the Conservatives point that they are serious about both Environmentalism and Quebec and will likely pick up some seats in a Spring election.

This all needs to be viewed in the context perhaps of certain unease in Quebec, the rise of the ADQ and I'd respectfully suggest if you don't speak french much of this is lost on you. Or if you simply like many Anglos think that quebecers all vote uniformly or are peppers or frogs.

The announcement is re-running on Newsnet all day.

"Any parent that finds their children in possession of these, it's not candy," advises York Regional Police Deputy Chief Bruce Herridge, whose force helped start the ball rolling. "And it can have a debilitating effect on the kids in the short term and on our communities in the long term."

So Cops are Ecstasy now?
