About Me

Raven Jones is merely a figment of his own delusional self image, created as a result of his experiences and self-created-perceptions, during this particular incarnation of being. Outside of his own delusion, exists a myriad of other various delusional perceptions of the Raven, existing solely in the minds of his friends, family and any such collections of sub atomic particles, creating a momentary delusion of selfness, which may through chance or karma, come into contact with the delusion that sees it self as Raven Jones.Beat that the artist formally known as.....hehe!Raven grasps tightly onto the delusion that he plays in an ephemeral creation of his ego, which he has karmically (yes it is a word...well it is now anyway) generated along with 3 other self delusions ,generated by their respective egos...they call this creation glasshouse. See: glasshouseband.com or myspace/glasshouseband.com for details.Aside from glasshouse, Ravens ego burns precious time in Samsara by pursuing worldly pursuits such as the collection of sounds you are now hearing.Enjoy it or don't.
