At first I wanna say SORRY to all the kids that waiting for a reply of their email. At the moment Iīm really busy w/ work and shit like that. I almost work 30 - 40 hours per week beside the university in this little shitty skatestore ... So sometimes Iīm slow - so I hope you can wait a couple of days before I reply. I try to answer important emails like orders and stuff like that in 24 hours I LOVE YOU!!!! THE PEOPLE LISTENING, WONDER/ DODEWAARD LP goes pretty well and Iīm more then happy that it is finally out - even if both bands broke up now. But watch out for new projects of them. If you have seen any reviews - please send them to us. I wanna post them on my website. The next project is the Catena Collapse/ LA Quiete split 7" as a co release w/ my friend Robert "grab the stars" from italy. He is such a great guy!!! Yeah and I work on the mailorder - I want to make it a little bit bigger and get my hands on more sexy nice records from all over the globe. I know that there is no need at all for that - but there are still a lot of great records that come out on small labels which nobody know and the big mailorders are to arrogant to take them for distro ... So I think I will do if I like it. And as you maybe know INSOLITO stopped working w/ the mailorder and I got all his stuff - so if you find something on his website - let me know. I have it ... www.insolito.de I had no time so far to type every single record - its too much! hahahah And ZANN is working on new songs for the full length. I think we just need 3 more or so. hahahah ... And we write a short song for a compilation on REACT W/ PROTEST. So watch out. It will be out in the beginning of the next year. Ok - I have to go. love you robert ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [27/10/2004] dudes. we are back from our tour and it was great! we spent some of the best days on this tour w/ great people and I think this has been one of the most relaxed tours we have done so far. TAKARU have been great every night and did a great job on setting up the tour. We met lots of great people on the westcoast and played w/ some great bands. SO THANX AGAIN TO ALL THE PEOPLE THAT MADE THAT TRIP POSSIBLE, GAVE US A PLACE TO STAY; MADE FLYERS, MADE FOOD, ROCKED THE PLACE, HAD BEEN NICE AND SEXY TO US ...you know who you are. everything has been great. Thanx Josh (you old german ... hahaha) & Takaru and everyone else. There are still some screenprinted posters from our show @ Gilman left w/ Hot Cross & Akimbo.

I always write much faster then I think about it. hahaha So Iīm sorry for that - but i think you know what I mean ... Things going slow in our headquarter - we mostly got all the money from the other labels that no finally co release this amazing record w/ me together. so now in the ship (that hopefully will not sink) are mashnote from belgium -> www.mashnote.net Monocore from Berlin -> www.8ung.at/monocore and grab the stars from italy -> www.grabthestars.org Iīm really gald that they joined and now I hope we get it done - there are no excuses ... PEOPLE LISTENING, WONDER broke up - which is kinda sad, but another reason to buy this record - cause the recordings are amazing. Dodewaard will be on tour in october and if you can help them out drop us a line or write to rvdeelen[at]care2.com (Rutger dodewaard) otherwise ZANN will play a couple of shows before we go to the states in october together w/ your friends takaru I canīt wait for that ...oh and if you want - ZANN is now on www.myspace.com ...so become our friends NOW :-) our email there is zann[at]adagio830.de I will set up the mailorder again this days - īcause the stuff is pretty old and not available at all and our collective will do some shows this weeks 10.8.
