   About RESIST
RESIST formed out of the ashes of Friction in 1988 by Todd Norin, Ward Young, Tom Nims and Mark Vickers. Initially the line up was Todd on drums, Mark on bass and Ward and Tom on guitars and a big question mark as to who or what would do the vocals. Eventually Tom moved from guitar and assumed vocal duties.In the fall of 1989 the band went to Fresh Tracks Studio and recorded. That session would be released as a cassette demo and the first 7" EP. Mark and the band parted ways in the winter of 1989-1990. At the time our two options for a new bass player were Pete Deegan (at that time bassist for Malcontent) or Kelly Halliburton (at that time bassist for Corrupted). Being that Pete lived out of town and was 16, Kelly became the obvious choice. This remained the line up for most of 1990. During this time an unreleased (and extremely unlistenable) demo was recorded at Lo-Tech studios. In the fall of 1990 the band parted ways with Todd. This was definitely a difficult parting as Todd had been there since the start and was (still is) a great friend as well as band mate. An old friend and school mate of Tom's, Ken Zimmerman soon became the new drummer. In the winter of 1990 we headed into Smegma Studios and recorded The Solution LP. In 1991 Ken left the band and for the time we were drummer-less. Via mail communications Ty Smith (Namland) said he'd move out from Illinois and play for us. During this time we were fortunate to have Craig Rosebraugh (Unamused) temporarily fill in on drums....SOOOO.... Ty moved out and was the drummer. In the fall of 1991 we returned to Smegma Studios and recorded. The songs would appear on the split EP with Disrupt and the split EP with The Deprived. In 1992, just prior to the European tour, Tom left the band. Tony Mengis (The Deprived) soon joined the band and toured Europe.In 1993 the band went into Smegma Studios and recorded. Songs from this session would appear on the Cluster Bomb Unit split, a cassette demo and eventually the Ignorance is Bliss LP. The studio session however remained only half finished for a year. Soon after the recording session the band and Tony parted ways. Ward approached Tom about helping to finish the recording session, and the remaining half of the session was completed in 1994. At that time there were talks of regrouping for the record release of Ignorance is Bliss, however this was not to be. The band grew apart and members went on to join and form numerous bands. Ty moved around and eventually found himself back in Illinois, Kelly moved to Germany and lived there for a couple of years, playing in numerous bands. In 2007 Kelly returned to Portland. In that summer the band regrouped with Scott Noben on drums. Scott previously played with Ward in the band Aftermath. Kelly went on to join The Pierced Arrows, Fred and Toody Cole's post Dead Moon band.Thankfully we were still friends with Pete Deegan who at this time is obviously older than 16 and living in town! Needless to say Pete is the bassist now. Spring of 2008 saw us playing in California, we are currently working on new material and chances are playing somewhere. We're hoping to return to the studio before too long so stay tuned for details!The CricketSoda Myspace Editor!

Oregon prison springs eco-saboteur 'Free' by mistake, then takes him back
By Bryan Denson, The Oregonian
October 02, 2009, 4:39PM
The man who drew the longest prison sentence in U.S. history for eco-sabotage walked out of prison this morning. After years of appeals, Jeffrey M. Luers, known to Eugene’s anarchist clan as “Free,” was just that.
But just as quickly, he was sent back to prison.
The Oregon Department of Corrections acknowledged today that it mistakenly allowed Luers to take advantage of a new law, House Bill 3508, which grants reduced sentences for certain classes of inmates. Luers’ sentence for arson made him ineligible for early release, said prisons spokeswoman Jennifer Black, in Salem.
“It’s a mistake we wish hadn’t happened,” she said. “We’re reviewing processes and hoping that it just does not happen again.”
Luers was released from Columbia River Correctional Institution in Northeast Portland this morning and given 24 hours to check in with his parole officer in Lane County. He checked in this afternoon, where he learned of the error.
Authorities took the 30-year-old radical environmentalist back to prison, a rude reversal for those who worked years to get Luers out.
The day began with Luers’ supporters writing on the Friends of Jeff Luers Web site: “We are still pinching ourselves.”
Luers’ appellate lawyer in Salem, Shawn Wiley, weighed in with an e-mail comment to The Oregonian: “This day is long overdue. Jeff is a kind, thoughtful, intelligent young man, and our community benefits much more from his presence in it rather than behind bars."
But their joy was short lived.
Luers' saga began in 2001, when Lane County Circuit Judge Lyle Velure sentenced him to 22 years, 8 months in prison after finding him guilty of two crimes in Eugene -- attempting to set fire to a gasoline tanker owned by a petroleum distributor, then firebombing
