HI~ I'M JOE
WELL, LET'S SEE HERE........."RUBYPORT", NAMED AFTER A SONG I WROTE
IN MY FORMER PROJECT CALLED....."FAMILY TREE". BOTH BANDS ARE SHINING EXAMPLES OF WHAT FLAKEY MUSICIANS AND STUPID YO-KO CHIX WILL DO TO A MUSICAL ENSEMBLE. I BUILT BOTH PROJECTS FROM "TEETH TO TOE-NAIL", ONLY TO HAVE THEM DESTROYED BY TEMPORARY FILL IN'S or FORMER BAND MATES I GUESS YOU COULD CALL THEM. I WROTE EVERY SONG, BOOKED ALMOST EVERY SINGLE GIG,(over 1500 shows between them both)I MADE JUST ABOUT EVERY FLYER AND ORGANIZED ALL THE FUNCTIONAL ELEMENTS OF THESE BANDS AND ALL ANYBODY HAD TO DO REALLY WAS JUST SHOW UP! NEEDLESS TO SAY THAT WASN'T HAPPENING. YEARS OF WORK DOWN THE DRAIN. BUT THAT'S ALL PART OF THE PATH OF THE STRUGGLING MUSICIAN.IT AINT ALLWAYS PRETTY. WELL,AT LEAST I STILL HAVE ALL MY SONGS AND IT DOSEN'T MATTER WHO OR WHAT PROJECT I PLAY THEM IN, THEY'LL ALLWAYS BE MINE.
ANYWAY, THIS IS STARTING TO SOUND MORE LIKE SOMEONE "VENTING" THEIR BITTERNESS THEN A BAND BIO. ONE OF THESE DAYS WHEN I FEEL LIKE REFLECTING I'LL WRITE A BIO, BUT FOR NOW IT'S NOT REALLY IMPORTANT.IT'S ALL IN THE PAST.......REST IN PEACE RUBYPORT.
NOW FOR THE FUTURE. THIS GROUP MAY NOT BE CURRENTLY IN EXSISTENCE BUT THE MUSIC STILL IS. MY LATEST PROJECT,DUBBED
"THE MOAF", IS IN FULL EFFECT! AND AS SOON AS ALL THE PLANETS LINE UP AND THE STARS FALL IN THE RIGHT PLACES, WHATEVER MAGIC IT TAKES TO GET TRUE MUSICIANS TO GATHER. THEN YOU'LL HEAR THE SONGS ON THIS PAGE ALONG WITH ALL OTHER MATERIAL I'VE WRITTEN, COMPRESSED INTO ONE BIG GROUP AFFAIR, THUS CREATING A COMBINATION OF EVERYTHING LEADING UP TO THAT DAY.
KINDA LIKE A CATAPILLAR TRANSFORMING INTO A BUTTERFLY. WOW,
THAT'S SO INSIGHTFULLY CORNY! lol.........
......lol! (all the way to the bank)
