"Well, is no news is good news, then I got some bad news"
I said that.

Well, its Friday, so that means it isn't Thursday. Which means that the appearance of Brian at the Java Joint is over. The night went off without a hitch, as those of you there would know. For those who weren't, you can still catch him this Monday at the Java Joint, along with Nico. Check them out, there are only 2 more Mondays before Brian takes a two week "hiatus."

If you missed the Java Joint appearances last night of Nico and Brian, you blow. Either way, they made a stunning news announcement that Brian will be playing this Thursday, June 27th with special guest Nico at the Java Joint.

Brian played, "Beautiful Girl and a Dead Man's Hand," ending a 5 year skid in which he never played the song, I think.

You guys aren't losers, I was joking last time. I'm only saying that because I'm probably the only one who reads this part, and I'm no loser, at least.

Red Rose, Black is proud to announce that 100% of its staff have high school diplomas.

We haven't been neglecting the site, there just has been no news, we, like many of you, are just losers.

We apologize for Nico's colorful comments yesterday, he's been re-probated.

It's Nico again, I decided to take some charge of the news section cause no one else seemed to do it. No one's probally looking at the news section anyway. right? So for the news, keep checking the site daily and win an award, keep voting for us so we can rule the internet together, and keep reading my rants cause I update them everyday. Someone tell Josh and Brian to do so as well. OH! and come see Brian with special guestNico. So keep on rocking. FUCK ASS SHIT DICK PUSSY.

We have joined a site ring, I really don't care if you guys look at it or not, hopefully, people will come here from the ring though. Feel free to check other emerging artists though, if you'd like.

Last night went off without a hitch at the Java Joint, should have been there, unless of course, you were, then, good job.

The lyrics for Beautiful Girl and a Dead Man's Hand are now, completing all the lyrics for all the songs on Red Rose, Black.

Josh again. Local host problems (a very tech way of saying my computer sucks) has caused a bit of a lag in some updates, shouldn't be a problem anymore. Not much other news other than check Brian and Nico (if he doesn't work) at the Java Joint tonight anytime between 8 and 10pm.

June 9th, 2002
Well it's Nico again and I'm off probation. Noone's updating shit so I took on the liberty. I did my shoot for MTV today. Well I guess just vote for us. Visit me at work while you're at it

June 4th, 2002
Well, the Vote for us thing is back up, we got it straigtened out. So start voting for us, we are already in Third as of now, only 1 vote away from 2nd. After that we have awhile to go until first. When you vote for us, remember to rank us, please.

Also, Brian and Nico played last night at the Java Joint, and it was discovered that on June 27th Brian will have his own gig. Don't worry, I'll remind you over and over and over again.

June 3rd, 2002
I sincerely apology for the news update yestereday. The intergrity of the news section was compromised, and we express sympathy for those who had to read it.

Either way, Nico is on probabtion.

Its Monday, so stop by the Java Joint to see Brian and Nico play some originals, some covers, and some scrabble.

June 2nd, 2002
Alright, it's your coolest buddy Nico. I've updated my shit cause this site is now called the Music of Nico, the wit of Nico and LABOR of Nico. And go to my page for some good old fashion violence and shit talking. If Josh has anything Important to say I'm sure he will. Oh by the Way, Beachwoods' on fire.
