Sorry to inform you all of this but Mario has retired from NJBL, and from playing in a band altogether.  It's been a great run since getting back together last year, and he's always been a huge part of it.  Mario has been my partner in crime since December of 1991.  We started this band which has become something bigger than us all.  I called to fill him in about our upcoming trip to PR, and he responded by telling me that he jus.t doesn't feel comfortable playing music anymore, and that he doesn't want to hold us back from doing the things we do aspire to accomplish now that NJBL is back full swing. 

We have a new member TBA very soon and I'm sure alot of old school NJ heads will be pleased to know who it is.

Like I expressed -Mario didn't want to hold the band back from the things that Frank, Ian, and myself have been planning.  Of course this means that new material will be rolling along very shortly, so keep watching for bulletins and updates in the months to come.  New concepts and images have been pouring out of mine and Frank's heads more than ever, also I've found a whole new world of things which turn my stomach and incur my lyrical wrath. 

Sad to see Mario go, but we're all excited for what's to come now.
BE AFRAID...
-BE VERY AFRAID!

Sorry to anyone who gets offended by this but we ate at the WAFFLE HOUSE on our recent trip from West Virginia to Baltimore and at the time of this writing 3 out of 4 NJBL got sick between Sunday and Monday. FUCK THAT SHITHOLE.. we should have known when we saw bugs on the wall that this place wasnt worthy of our time, money and health. If you go there to eat be VERY VERY AFRAID.

Michael Vick Indicted

Feds: Falcons QB, cohorts executed pit bulls that failed fight tests

JULY 17--NFL star Michael Vick was indicted today on a federal conspiracy charge for his alleged role in a dog fighting venture that operated from a Virginia property owned by the Atlanta Falcons quarterback. A copy of the indictment, filed today in U.S. District Court in Richmond, can be found below. The 27-year-old Vick, whose nickname is listed as "Ookie" in the indictment, allegedly established the Bad Newz Kennels in early-2001 in Smithfield, Virginia. It was this property, for which Vick paid $34,000, that the star athlete and his codefendants used as the "main staging area for housing and training the pit bulls involved in the dog fighting venture and hosting dog fights." According to prosecutors, Vick and his cohorts began purchasing pit bull puppies in late-2001 and would eventually "sponsor" individual dog fights with purses as high as $26,000. In the indictment's most harrowing parts, federal investigators describe what happened to some Bad Newz Kennels dogs that either lost matches or did not perform well in test fights. After a March 2003 loss by a female pit bull, codefendant Purnell Peace, "after consulting with Vick," electrocuted the animal. In April, prosecutors allege, Vick, Peace, and Quanis Phillips, "executed approximately 8 dogs that did not perform well in 'testing' sessions." These animals, the indictment claims, were killed "by various methods, including hanging, drowning, and slamming at least one dog's body to the ground." (18 pages)

As a Pitbull owner myself, I would us owners could get him alone for 10 minutes with nothing more than a tire iron, a blowtorch and a set of needle nose pliers... Only pussies dog fight.

So Frank receives an e-mail from an attorney representing some company named "Bloodline Inc.".  Apparently this was a letter warning us to "Cease and Desist" usage of our name on cd's (including pulling any of our old releases from store shelves and distribution catalogs), t-shirts (oh ESPECIALLY these), etc.
Does anyone else find this funny?  I'm still a little confuse considering our name is NJ Bloodline and that we've been called that since 1992.  It's first of all not even the same name.  Yes the word Bloodline is part of our name, but it represents something different entirely.  Not to mention it is impossible to actually copywrite "a word from the English language", as your own, then furthermore "NJ Bloodline" is a phrase. 
Supposedly this company specializes in clothing for and relating to the MMA community (I wonder what shirt it might be that we made in 1998 which pissed them off hmmmmmmmm?).  UFC didn't become a mainstream thing providing these jokers with a prospective market until long after we were already an INSTITUTION.  Our shirts basically have song lyrics which I have copywritten as property of this band and of myself incorporated in our designs.  Our name is already copywritten and automatically trademarked due to the fact we've released material on a major label, and all of our material is registered in the US copywrite offices.
Anyone who even isn't familiar with the band's music can know within seconds what our materials and shirts represent, a hardcore musical group.  Hell, I'd be fine with it if they'd like to buy any of our shirt designs off of us.
As a hardcore band which has gained our own little cult status throughout the years we have our own thing here.  Maybe some of our minions have crossed over into that world and now more attention (enough to piss someone like such off) has come our way YEARS LATER.
So not like I'm condoning any actions whatsoever but...
-see auto tattoos with the logo, one of our cult minions might dash it out OR correct the spelling of the originator by crossing out the imitator.  Just kidding, thought I'd share with you all.

-be afraid,
WREAK

-So after a little search I dug up Bloodline Inc.'s website, and noticed they also sponsor a "Team Bloodline".  Basically I guess they are trying to hold all ties to the word as their own (WOW, and I though I was on some drugs...).
I think I'm going to start a "Journey Inc." and a "Team Journey", then tell the band Journey to change their name after 30 years

MAN-, for the years I've been doing this, the different places and scenes I've seen, all the kids I've met, all the things I've learned...
-I really don't like many people (perhaps anyone) at all whom I've met in this "scene" (with the exception of my girlfriend... -most of the time at least), but let me clarify that I hate you all equally.

To me, throughout the existances of NJ Bloodline both original and reunited days, Hell Brigade, and my time in Hoods (both years ago and now as well), I'm seeing it all as a pile of contradictory crap that recycles and rehashes itself that same ways over time.  "We" all reject violence but want to see blood, "we" all preach global unity but stand for our crew above all (smoking fools that fuck with my family and friends-bah).

"Enough!", one thing, I always tried to instill as a main part of NJBL's philosophy is violence and open acceptance of it.  Sorry folks, but I WANT TO SEE PEOPLE GET HURT!  I want to see people get angry.  It's the entire reason I started singing in a band in the first place.  Why would someone become an MMA fighter and not want to break bones?  Why would someone want to become a cop and not be an asshole?  Neither of those would make sense otherwise.  The floor is an open forum of violence.  Once we accept this, then we can all respect one another, then there are no bullies, then there is no prejudice -when the overlying FEAR that was once there when I stepped into my first show is felt all around.  Not to get all Dr. Faggot Phill on a nigga, we're here  because we're supposedly in a struggle "against the world".  That includes everyone at shows as well and that makes the dance floor our "gladiator school".  It's what we all want right?  Has to be considering I saw kids jumping some emo pussy instead of the Nazi skinhead bouncers at a club Hoods played in upstate NY!

A long time ago I said something that went, "The rules are no rules!".  Isn't that the truth?  Tear that repititious unity banner down, and then everyone might just get to understand what it really means.

We're looking to play hopefully by and during the summertime, so  anyone that handles bookings or that can provide direct "CONTACT INFORMATION" for someone who does, please contact us.

*This does not mean write back with, "tour Malaysia...", "you guys should play this club...", "I'm having a BBQ, and yous should play...", or other such comments.  DO NOT respond with anything less than an e-mail address, phone #, or an offer/tentative date for a show.
