Some people say, that our music makes a lot of noise. Well, maybe noise is what people need to wake up. In our music we talk about things, that are important to us. About things, that affect, lead and take over our lives. Some people prefer to see the world like it's just fine, and they call that optimism, although there's so much wrong in the world, that they don't want to see. We do the opposite. We bring out the problems, to make people think and act. We have a message to deliver. Are we coming soon? No, we're here.
We are Coming Soon and we've got something to say.
The questions is: will you listen?

I just returned from a wonderful 3 day 2,100 mile weekend solo road trip on my motorcycle. I covered a lot of ground and saw many beautiful breath-taking sights: Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, Crater Lake, and 350 miles of Hwy 101 Pacific Ocean Shoreline, & many destinations in between.
On my journey I also found the solace to peacefully commune in my spirit with my Maker. You might say I experienced an epiphany. This was the message I received- a recipe for personal peace:
1.) Each day make things right in every way to the best of your ability. Next day: repeat again.
2.) Start each day anew with a fresh start leaving the past behind. Next day: repeat again.
3.) Never allow the past to drag you down with guilt and defeat- it’s over and a done deal. It is now a brand new day. Next day: repeat again.
4.) One day at a time make the best of that single day- lived to the fullest. Next day: repeat again.
5.) Live the day as if it is your first and your last- imagining that it could be. Next day: repeat again.
6.) Do the best with what you have now for that day. You are never expected more than what you asked or can do for that one day. Next day: repeat again.
7.) Do what you feel is right for that day to the best of your knowledge and ability. If you have no direction as to what that might be, the day is yours to make of it what you will- and have fun doing it! Next day: repeat again.
