ROLLO TIME NEWS FLASH!!! ROLLO TIME featured on Viking Radio Podcast http://thevikingradio.com/radio/PodCastHTML/specialep001.htm,
Rollo Time is a state of mind
It’s a way of being
That has no ceiling
An approach to life
That’s without strife
Forget the future
Forget the past
Let’s rock the present
Let's rock the now
Don't sweat the details
Just follow the light
Avoid the negative
It'll turn out right
Don't dwell in time
And you won't be late
Just visualize a goal
You want to create
Rollo Time
Is a state of mind
Enjoy every minute
And hour you're in it
With your spirit transparent
All worries become absent
If you really want to know more about where these guys came from, it's The Time Beings, Electricon and the Cereal Killers mostly. Just a bunch of guys who've played music together over the years who finally got together and recorded a bunch of songs Jon Raleigh had cooked up as a solo project. The project quickly morphed into a quasi-band community, with contributions from several great Chicago musicians from bands such as Joy Missile, Seven Day Run and The Mythbelievers. This concoction ended up putting a unique stamp on the tunes that approximates the soul of Rollo Time.

Thanks you too! I got the RP-1 fixed and it works perfectly now. It was just a dead battery and thats what was messing up the memory. I am playing in the talent show again this year. We are going to record the song this saturday and I will make sure I show you
it works but when I make it sound how I want for each pedal it doesn't seem to save like you said it wouldn't . It has really good effects and Im sure any place could fix something like that so I will take it somewhere when I get the chance.
Alright! The Grove from which our piano player hails. As for your bio, I like it. However, I'd like to know what you think of this bio:
Soundframe is a cartel of five white males who have entered into an agreement both semi-formal and semi-secret with the express purpose of furthering the individual aims of the members at the expense of the laboring masses. This quixotic quintet (which sprung forth from the bourgeoisie that saturate the Chicagoland area of the United States) commands a sonic junta that reinforces ancient and oppressive phallocentric notions of gender identity while simultaneously ignoring the various theories regarding labor value, dialectical materialism, and the class struggle. In fact, not one paragraph of this group’s voluminous lyrical library confronts issues surrounding ideological inscription or the literary effect of the sex/gender system. Friends, this omission is no mere error or innocent oversight on the part of the persons in question since the combined cost of the education of this particular cartel reaches into the tens, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. No, these omissions are spin at best; the work of opportunistic propaganda merchants at worst.
Also, we'll send you and anyone who promises they'll listen a free CD if they send us a mailing address to send it to. Rock. Rock on.
