BRENT ALDEN, PAUL KOSTABI, ART CHIANELLO, DYLAN MAUNDER (1968-2005)................................................. ............................................................ ............................................................ .......................................................FALSE ALARM NEWSHELLO EVERYONE AND WELCOME TO THE FALSE ALARM BLOG . SOMEONE SAID I SHOULD MAKE ONE SO I DID . IM GOING TO TRY TO PUT THE BAND BACK TOGETHER AGAIN IN 2008 OR 09 EVEN WITHOUT DYLAN WHO PASSED AWAY IN 2005 BEFORE THE NEW RECORD WAS RELEASED . FALSE ALARM FIRST STARTED IN 1982 ,25 YEARS BUT IT DIDN'T EVER DO ANYTHING AT ALL UNTILL AROUND 1996 . IN THE 1980'S IT NEVER WAS MORE THEN A GARAGE BAND THAT PLAYED IN THE BACK AND MADE DEMOS. IT WAS COMPLEATLY UNORGANISED. I WANTED TO MAKE IT A REAL BAND , BUT THE MEMBERS KEPT CHAINGING AND NO ONE GOT ALONG . EVEN FAT MIKE FROM NOFX WAS IN FALSE ALARM , IT WAS HIS FIRST BAND. THATS ONE OF THE REASONS THAT AFTER I BECAME SOBER IN 1994 AFTER I WAS RELEASED FROM JAIL . I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WOULD BE SMART TO START IT UP AGAIN. SO 4 OF US FROM HIGH SCHOOL AND A NEW DRUMMER ART GOT IT GOING AGAIN . WE PUT OUT ARE FIRST RECORD IN 1998 " LEARNING IS IMPOSSIBLE " WITH SOME NEW SONGS AND WE REDID SOME OLD ONES , WE EVEN PUT AN OLD SONG WITH THE FAMOUSE FAT MIKE ON THERE , SO IT MIGHT SELL ENUGH TO PAY FOR IT SELF ,AND BREAK EVEN IT DID , MAXAMUM ROCK N ROLL EVEN DID AN INTERVIEW . IF I HAD NOT HAVE GOTTEN INVOLVED IN DRUGS AND CRIME AS A YUNG PERSON I WOULD HAVE PROBABLY DONE IT SOONER . BUT I HAD BEEN RUNNING AROUND DRUNK AND ON HARD DRUGS FOR QUITE SOME TIME UNTILL THE CONCQUENSES GOT TO BE JUST TO MUCH .AS THE MID 90S CAME I WAS FEELING BETTER AT LEAST FOR THAT TIME . WE MANIDGED TO PLAY QUITE A FEW SHOWS AT PLACES LIKE ALS BAR . THERE WAS NEVER MUCH CROWD. BUT WE HAD ALOT OF FUN. BY 1999 I WAS DRINKING PRETTY BAD , AND WE WERNT GETTING ALONG WELL AT ALL. EVERYONE WENT THERE WAYS. AND I REALY HAVE BARLY SCEEN PAUL WHO SANG ON LEARNING IS IMPOSSIBLE OR FLOYD WHO PLAYED GUITAR. FAT MIKE SAID HE WOULD TRY AND HELP AND HE DID MENTION US ON HIS WEBSITE WICH ACTUALY HELPED ALOT , BUT HE NEVER SIGHNED US TO HIS FAT RECORDS , WICH WOULD A BEEN FUN .. BY 2000 I HAD COMPLEETLY FLIPED OUT SOME KINDA BI POLER ATACS WICH I REALY ATRIBUTE TO GROWING UP IN A TOTALY FUCKED UP SOCIETY THAT FUCKS WITH INTELEGENT CHILDREN WITH PROBLEMS THAT TRY TO ACT INOVATIV .BECAUSE I HAD REALY TRIED HARD TO STAY AWAY FROM DRUGS AND ALCHOLE ALOT AS MUCH AS I COULD . I WAS EVENTUALY ABLE TO START DOING BETTER NOT WITH OUT ANOTHER TRIP TO JAIL FOR 6 MONTHS AND 5 MONTHS IN PATTEN STATE MENTAL HOSPITAL IN FULL CAKIY UNIFORM AND VELCO SHOES , SMOKING ROLLY CIGARETS WITH MOST THE PEOPLE HAD NO TEATH . BY 2001 SOME HOW I HAD GOTTEN MY MIND BACK AT HAD COME AND GONE A FEW TIMES . I TOLD DYLAN WHO HAD PLAYED GUITAR IN THE PAST LETS MAKE ANOTHER CD AND THIS TIME YOU COULD SING AND PLAY GUITAR I SAID . DYLAN THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD PLAN AND WE GOT TO WORK FIRST WRITING SONGS AND THEN RECORDING IN THE STUDIO. IT WAS AROUND THIS TIME I MET DEE DEE RAMONE. HE WAS AT THE DENNYS RESTAURANT ON SUNSET BLVD HAVING BREAKFIST. I HAD BEEN EATING THERE FOR YEARS AND I WOULD EAT THERE WITH RODNEY BINGENHIEMER ALOT AND ASK HIM ABOUT THE OLD DAYS, BUT I NEBVER THOUGHT I WOULD SEE MY CHILD HOOD IDLE DEE DEE RAMONE . I HAD HAD THE SAME LEATHER AND TORN UP JEANS WHEN I WAS YUNG TEEN AGER . DEE DEE WAS MY FAVORIT SONG WRITER. SO I TOLD HIM THAT NORMALY I WOULDNT BOTHER SOMEONE BUT THAT HE WAS MY ALL TIME FAVORIT COMPOSER SO HE INVITED ME TO SIT. AND WE STARTED TELLING STORIES ABOUT HOW HARD LIFE WAS , AND ALL THE TERRIBLE THINGS WE HAD TO GO THREWBUT IT WAS ALWAYS IN A FUNNY WAY ,LIFE THAT IS , WE WERE SITING AT THE COUNTER WITH AN EMPTY SEAT BETWEEN US AND THERE WAS A HOMELES PERSON THAT I USED TO SELL PLAIN RAP BEER TO DOWN THE STREET AT RALPHS MARKET WHEN I WORKED THERE . THIS PERSON STAGERD IN AND FOR SOME REASON TRIED TO SIT BETWEEN US AND I SAID YOU CANT SIT THERE MAN , AND DEE DEE SAID " THERE IS ALWAYS SOME HORRIBLE PERSON TRYING TO GET IN THE MIDDLE OF EVERTHING" WHEN THE GUY WALKED AWAY. AND I THOUGHT THATS TRUE . AFTER WE TALKED FOR ABOUT 45 MINUTE DEE DEE SAID HE HAD TO GO OR HIS WIFE BARBRA WOULD GET FURIOSE . SO I SAID BYE. I WAS THINKING I WISH I COULD WORK WITH HIM SOMEHOW BUT I THOUGT THE BEST THING WAS JUST TO SAY BYE. A WEEK LATER .. ILL FINISHISH TONIGHT NOV 28 07
