I came across 2 early self published band newsletters recently and thought I would share them.

I find the tone of the newsletters very revealing about the band's attitude toward the then current Iraq War.

Enjoy,
Brian

Wow! Awesome! Thank you! The theories of Krishnamurti are so evident in those writings. Very cool.
