I will also include some topics
that have to do with censorship.

THE MEDIA CREATES HYPE. THEN FEEDS OFF OF IT.

FUCK CENSORSHIP

FUCKING CORPORATE AMERICUNT FUCKING OVER THE MIDDLE MAN AGAIN

The multibillion dollar company Virginin Records the same corporation who's founder spends millions trying to fly around the world in a stupid ass weather balloon; decided to drop the band Amen from their record label and to also withhold the rights of the bands latest album they have been working on holding them hostage. This has left the band nearly broke for the spent thousands of dollars recording and producing the album the album in the studio with Ross Robinson (i think he has produced some of the greatest albums in the 90's and on).

The band is worried about a new record label right now so they arn't really worried about it yet but the fans have tooken things into thier own hands and started a petition hopfully this will get some attention and maybe Virgin will release the record or maybe resign the Amen back.

If YOU agree with ME and other AMEN fans and small bands trying to make it in corporate america you should sign the petition.

Yes YOU can make a difference CLICK HERE 2 SIGN PETITION at www.saveamen.cjb.net

I hate censorship. Stupid fuckin people cracking down on everything and anything they can. Why do they this is a fact i would like 2 share: Cause it makes them feel like their life is good, like they are perfect, and cause they are on one huge ass POWERTRIP.
The thing that makes me mad is when they censor art. Painting, drawings, or music or plays.
Mother fuckin Mayor Giuliani (this was written before Sept 11..i still dont like giuliani) of New York is about the stupidest motherfucker ever elected in for anything. Here is a few stories on him.
You see, they passed the cabaret law back in 1926, and it prohibits dancing in bars if the bar doesn't have a cabaret license. Jazz was basically the punk rock of the 20s, and when white kids started going to Harlem to dance in the jazz clubs, the establishment freaked out and passed the law. If there are more than three people dancing they'll shut the place down. Of course, it hadn't been enforced for decades before Giuliani took over. Suddenly it was back in effect. Plus the stupid basturd tried banning a thing of the virgin mary made of cow vaginas (which is creepy and wierd...creepy...and wierd) and many other things. A few years ago he tried pulling another stunt here is a story told first hand.

It was a strange moment at last year's Sick Shit Art Show when the NYPD Morals Squad arrived. We remember seeing a few of them pushing through, the bright yellow lettering - MORALS - on the back of their jackets. We'd never heard of such a thing, and suspected a prank. Rudy Giuliani wouldn't really waste his soldiers on an art show - or would he?

He would - and did. The goons went over the venue with a fine-tooth comb, looking for any violations of NYC's antiquated Moral Code. Sick Shit must have seemed like a slam dunk for them. But no. After disrupting the show with their intimidation tactics they walked out having written exactly one ticket: for the improper storage of an ice cream scoop. How the keeping and care of kitchen utensils falls under the Morals Squad's jurisdiction, we still can't figure out.

This year, Sick Shit IV storms into CB's Gallery on May 26. With Jonathan Le Vine co-curating with Sally Herships, it is sure to be just as interesting as the last show.

We can't promise that you'll get to see real-life police harassment, but we can tell you this: The art is not to be missed

Mick Thompson of the band Slipknot got hassled at an airport for wearing a T-shirt that read 'Fuck me I'm famous.' This is what he had 2 say about it (I found it interesting)

We were stuck with this fucking vicious three-hour layover and our gate was four miles from the nearest place to have a cigarette, so we were walking back and forth in the Detroit airport and we must have done it five times and not got hassled once. All of the sudden, this security lady comes out of nowhere. And I'm sketched out. I've been up all night. I'm hungover. I haven't had any fucking sleep at all. I'm in vicious mode. She runs up to me and says, 'Turn that shirt inside out or take it off, there are kids here.' I didn't even say a fucking word. I just kept walking. And she's like, 'Did you hear me? Do you speak English?' And I looked at her and said, 'Are you fucking racist? What kind of a question is that?' And she said, 'Turn it inside out or take it off. There are kids here.' And I said, 'Yeah, kids that can't read the fucking thing in the first place.' And she was like, 'Well, there are women here too.' And I was like, 'Yeah, and they are probably laughing there fucking asses off about it. Chill out.' So my friend was like, 'Freedom of speech, lady! Freedom of speech!' And she's like, 'Not in a public place.' And I was like, 'Oh that's right we have a layover in Germany!'"
"So we go back to the gate and all of the sudden we see all these security people flying all over the place, just losing their fucking minds and we were sitting right there. Don't know how the fuck they missed us. Finally, they started calling our flight and they looked right at us and I just ripped open my jacket and went [laughs hysterically] Ha! Ha!' and ran on the plane. Long story short, don't hire morons to do fucking security. She was probably a detention monitor when she was younger but good God. Have a Cinnabon and calm the fuck down. Everyone in the world can kiss my ass because I'm going to wear my fucking t-shirt whether you like it or not."

Guest: Perhaps prostitution should be legalized.
O'Reilly: You're a sex fiend! They should put you in prison!
Guest: Uh...What?!
O'Reilly: You can have the last word, go.
Guest: Huh?...ok, I was saying...
O'Reilly: Shut up, you're a communist, you bore me, good-bye.

SHITTY MUSIC.

Just like everything else in corporate america the music industry turned 2 shit and sold out. Bands are selling out everyday and people don't notice it until the band breaks up or has gone pop. Sugar Ray used to be a rock band-now pop. Limp Bizkit used to be a rap-rock band which means rock music and lyrics but with a rappish style-now they are a rock band with a rapper. To tell you the truth thier new album blows. Cypress Hill's rock CD on Skull/Bone is more rock then them. N'SYNC and all the other boy bands which are ussaully MADE by a record label. Brittany Spears and all those pop singer girls are 2 be expected, they are made for little 6-7 year olds. I know pop music when i hear it but i know its as pop as it gets when guys in purple camaros are listening 2 it and my 3&5 year old nieces have the CD. Lou Bega and Shaggy both loved by MTV and nobody else except little kids.
WHY DO THEY HAVE HIGH RECORD SALES YOU ASK?
I'll tell you why.
We live in an america where people don't know what they like whether its clothes or music. If someone on TV has or listens 2 it these people go and buy it. And even the people on TV don't know what they like, such as Carson Daily of MTV. This little fucker is the cheesiest basturd i know the king of posers and his show shows it. I bet that if a few non-gay people shoved corn cobs up their ass all the TJ fuckin Schields and Carson Dailys of the world would ask, "Where did you get the corn cob?"
I hate this america i hate the music industry i hate: everymotherfuckinthingaboutthe90'sandnewmillenium.
I was watchin Tv when i flipped on MTV and saw 3LW performing that "gona play" song i dont know what it's called but i thought it was a bunch of people singin' say what kareokee (i know i spelled it wrong) cause they sucked so bad, they were fuckin half lip synching it. I dont know when off beat dancing and lip synching was fun 2 watch BUT I dO KNOW I DON'T LIKE IT. Destiny's Child is another shit band they try being role models 2 teenage girls so they write/buy a song called "BOOTIE-LICIOUS" WHAT THE FuCK were they thinking when they sang that song into the microphone and had the computer software PRO-TOOLS make their vocals sound intune and on key?
And who the fuck got the idea 2 release it as a single?
Country music has gone pop and now added sex 2 thier arsonal of songs about Drinkin, divorce, and a dead dog. There are a few good bands still out thier that havn't been found yet, after that i don't know what will happen.
