   About Phil Freeman
First formed at the close of the Paleolithic era, the earliest form of the band was called "King's X" (kings being a brand-new concept then), not to be confused with the well-known trio which we predated by at least a dozen millennia. Like the Count de St. Germain (who was actually our manager for a brief time in the 18th century A.D.), we, going by many names including "The Heard", "The Foetal Pig", "Joe Domino Polar", "The Anomolous Hominids", and others, have survived and grown down the centuries, but lost touch with each other during the chaos of the American Civil War. We recently got together again in the summer of 2007 to record some of Phil's songs. Who knows where we'll go from here?

Hey there,

Here's one from left field...

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?

A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:

Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella

Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.

Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.

I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4

Help to raise awareness.

Say have you checked out my web site recently?

Take care and keep in touch.

Best,
Faber.

Spotty is excited to hear your new album. Just maybe not with the volume too loud.

Dad, you're amazing. I know I don't call you enough like I call mom. Every time I hang up with her I think of how I wish I had talked to you a little. I think about you a lot, especially in my Foundations of Arithmetic class but often in my other classes too.

Just wanted to let you know I love you!

Oh come on Mr. Freeman, the first blog was a delight, why hide the one I didn't get to read on time before you realized how to set the blog to private :)
