Born Standing Up

About Me

I am Race (yeah, that's my real name).. I was born a poor black child. This is my personal profile, not a "band" profile. There is no band called Race. Those songs you see up there are just me and a Tascam 4-track recorder fooling around. I lead a simple life. I work for a newspaper, and am in two music groups: Psychotic Reaction and The Ethereals. If you're thinking about throwing away your old cassette tapes, let me know."..We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us." -Charles Bukowski

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
