ThanksBun!

dont listion to bun he really does nah kno. these bands are being used for there own promotion & not by bands permission. if u want AZ. scene info please get in contact with i*. -RASpects+

i* played tempe version last year & guess what nobody got paid & even venue dues were skipped out which in turn gave our local reggae scene a bad rep. from dis club & otherz az rumerz spread. city of tempe also has a bar on a community chance because .guess what not even city got paid year before dat. one thing to use bands for promotion but try to skip on city police fees & bang u have a major problem. have much more to nah mention about dis un-rasta like of a travel show. so what if they give local & unsigned bandz a chance. dey also use dem & throw away the key. itez*

cho, i nah know what??? I nah know how to cut and paste? or how to use a search engine?

here's one for the "JahMeek Nah Know" file - [www.dictionary.com]

thanx bun but already have a non-cyber verzion. but thanx anywayz. -RASpects+

no respects, you have no respects. no wool over my eyes.

RASpect iz earned bi* JaH*worx. nah any jerk can take a slice of dat without a little luv first*. plenty of wolf in wool coats. -nuff RASpects

you are just a used cars salesman for jah.

u used dat line on another victim way back on another thread. JaH*Kno'z

i have used it many times. when the cap fits...

well u got a quote now* waz it worth the vibe? just wonding what your goal iz in the scene besides party, party, party. everymon get paid according to his worx. -RASpects+

r u guys true Rasta or internet geeks who thrive on negativity and being able to be heard and not seen? respect is due to all one love! peace bredren

no man, i never claim rasta. respect is not due to all. you will learn when you grow up.

breath the fresh air * JAH*

thats right jahweek - i am going to chime in on this. i will ask you (again) if you read the posts you are responding to or if you just get your panties in a bunch and fly off the handle and start spouting your gibberish? go back and read what was initially posted and then your hostile response. all bun n cheese did was provide a link to the performers in response to forwardzions question. your response was out of line for what he did and then you make it worse by playing the "poor little rasta" tune. you got a real problem dude. now please be sure to respond to my post with all kinds of letters and characters and gibberish but makes no difference - you got a problem dude.

dirtweed your no stranger u mite wanna crawl back down from dis or are u teamin' the negative vibez? it does nah matter but just some more great reasonz on how people start warz. maybe u should run for office dey r alwayz looking for fresh blood like the i*. JAH*

so answer my question - do you read the posts or do you just start jabbering? why do you feel you had to come down so hard (don' listen to bun.....). and if i did run for office i would make you my minister of gibberish.

dont listion to bun because one i* tell ya datmaybe about 10 percent of these bands are really gonna play & two anybody can go on the webpage & copy the liez. does dat spell it clear for you. i* kno u in person were in the shadow from last time u were burned so dont mention it. no hard feelingz. 7X77*

you are an idiot jahweek. tell me - how was bun n cheese to know this? looks like he was doing a favor by posting the lineup. instead of slamming bun you maybe could have just posted the facts rather than your hissy-fit. and i have not been burned - especially by your weak fire. you mean nothing to me and i can see why you are in god-forsaken arizona after being run out of east coast because you got no sense.

could someone please point out to me even one "legend" in that list? if thats the cause of all the commotion, i am reminded of the phrase "tempest in a teapot". respect to all who play reggae but if thats all they had to offer (and even those names were not really signed) i wouldnt cross the street on a boring day to catch it. oh well, i guess its different in tucson.

one love
jah bill

bulletproof marshmellows? what kind of band name is that? thats gotta be the stupidest thing ive seen.

Jahmeek, you wanna talk about wolves in sheeps clothing? Puffy wool jackets or whatever you said? Look no further than your bathroom mirror. You sling a lot of sharp words and then claim it to be all respect. Simply put, you rub people to wrong way. Check yourself.

never lived on east coast & only mention RASpect all the time because nuff people stray everyday among our own. if dirtweed callz dis slamming im az confussed az bill @dis point. acacia i* send u free cd'z upon your request & dis da thanx i* get. chatty about RASpects. well i* tink it'z time for a new addition on line up people getting all chitty chat about nothing now. -NUFF RASpects+
