Here is a video of HAVE HEART playing their last song in Durban, South Africa, 1 August 2009. This was one date on a few dates here with Shipwreck AD (video coming too). I’ve got a few more songs which will be uploaded in time. But until then feel free to spread this around.
The only good fight there is!

The point of life
“I find in me a desire, a dream for something more. Something not part of the dreary existential zombie-life so dear to us all… I realize that I’m thinking thoughts society would label as repressed anger, or perhaps misplaced anxiety, or just plain rebellion. Well, I’m tired of the lies the world feeds me. I’m upset with the food chain, because I, you and me, we’re at the bottom. We’re living a life, working towards misplaced goals, missing the point, completely oblivious to the bigger picture. I’m sick of people without guts, without the balls to stand up straight and do what they should. I’m sick of people making excuses. I’m sick of the selfish, money-centered mindset everyone is so …
Ray Cappo explains Straight Edge
I found this great article written by Ray Cappo recently.. Thought it a keeper and good enough to republish: “Over the years I’ve ignored most of the gossip I’ve heard about myself. I find gossip a waste of time for both the hearer as well as the speaker. I let it go, “Ray Cappo’s dead, Ray Cappo’s in Jail, Ray Cappo has a secret arcade in the temple basement, Ray Cappo’s not a Krishna…. I know all these things first hand” But I must address my recent accusation… “Ray Cappo’s a drunkard and gets wasted everynight on tour with Better than 1000 and preaches Straight edge on stage, and this is why Jeff Neuman quit the band, due to Ray …
“Dont think, drink” – Iron Man 2
This is a mish mash of a review of Iron Man 2, straight edge and the weird way my mind works in relating things I experience in life back to my ideals. When this kind of thing happens its what makes life more pleasant for me, kinda like a reaffirmation of my beliefs – cos I guess it feels good when something comes along and says “you’re right, you’re cool” hahaha! I don’t think I’m alone in saying I really enjoy things that ‘speak’ to me. I really get excited when they ‘back up’ my ideals and outlook on life. Most of the time I’m the only one identifying in this way, and friends around me are just oohing and …
A lookback on my ‘travels’
Now this is my first update from an actual computer, all the earlier posts were written and submitted from my phone using this splendid little Blackberry app for WordPress blogs (you will also find it in AppWorld). Amazing the things you can do with a wifi enabled Blackberry. So I thought I’d do a recap on the few unplanned days that I spent in Dubai and use some bigger words, maybe write a little more too. A number of people have asked if I would be getting a refund from the airline: When I sent in a refund request to Emirates I received an email a few minutes later stating that it would be done to my credit card within …
