Angry Young Men Those flowers are being laid and the water canon being pushed forward in order to do that. More from Brussels throughout the afternoon. Still trying to disperse the crowd - they weren’t going, and so the water cannon is being deployed. Followed by the riot police. Uh. Aiming it uh, towards what is uh, effectively uh, a small crowd of angry young men. Cheers from the people packing the square.Those that have come to pay their respects to the 28 that died in the explosions at Brussels airport and the Metro station on Tuesday. The aim was - from the riot police to move the crowd away from the square. To disperse them somewhat. That has now happened. Whether the riot police will then retreat and put a cordon around the square to prevent them returning, we’ll see. Some bemusement suggested before from the people on the other side of this. But certainly tensions rising. There have been a great number of arrests in several European countries since the attacks on Tuesday. Belgium. France. Germany and Italy - we saw arrests being made as well. All related to terrorism offenses. Just today nine more people arrested in 13 raids in and around Brussels. Nine people arrested, five have since been released, four in custody. There have been terrorism related charges against several people. Obviously three died in the terrorist attack on Tuesday. Two at the airport. One at the Metro station. One disappeared. That man - you’ll be familiar with the image - the man in the white hat. Whilst there’s various speculation as to who that might be; no official confirmation of a name. But tensions rising particularly in Brussels regarded as somewhat a haven for Islamic State sympathizers. And the tracks that have been made by the people involved at the airport, the metro station and other planned terrorist activities all point back to this area - Molambique, in Brussels. Some criticism after the attacks in Paris last November where 130 people were killed that not enough was done by the Belgian authorities to crack down to bring people in for questioning. As you see - huge numbers of police moving away this huge group of protestors. The authorities had not wanted huge number of police to be involved in crowd control in public events because there are - as I mentioned, still raids going on around the city and other investigations taking place. But it has been called upon dozens and dozens of riot police today to move a group from Place De La Bourse in Brussels Those flowers are being laid and the water canon being pushed forward in order to do that. More from Brussels throughout the afternoon. Those flowers are being laid and the water canon being pushed forward. More from Brussels throughout the afternoon.

Yes and no it is for the shotguns I mean you have to be 21 to get a handgun But you have to be only 18 to get a shotgun And that’s pretty much what they used (Gunshot) We do not seek this struggle (Gunshot) (Gunshot) We do not seek this struggle Is it easy? Anybody can go to any store and pick up a gun If you’re old enough I guess If you’re 18? So - they were not semiautomatic rifles As you could see? From what I heard I heard 12 gauge shotguns and a couple handguns I heard about semiautomatic weapons But I’m not sure about that Adam, thank you so much for joining us today You bet Ooooh What?

A Screen is a Veil We watch the programs and commercials your child watches carefully He may see bad guys, but not in the role of heroes He’ll learn that crime doesn’t pay Because your child’s welfare is out concern too That’s part of our code The code of the National Association of Broadcasters For television in the greater public interest Purposeful vindictive chaos Purposeful vindictive chaos I mean they’re told that you just buy things Buy your way into happiness They don’t realize that you can gain a lot of strength by doing a lot of things yourself Okay? Okay? I mean they’re told that you just buy things Buy your way into happiness They don’t realize that you can gain a lot of strength by doing a lot of things yourself Okay? Okay? That’s all I’ve ever seen during human history Is human beings playing tricks on other human beings That’s all I’ve ever seen during human history Is human beings playing tricks on other human beings Most wars in modern history are fought For the enhancement of power and wealth On the part of the elites That run those governments It’s a fact of life It’s a fact of life Understand who you are. Break free from this manipulation Stop the cycle That we all get caught in It’s what you can give Convolute the model You’re cheating yourself It’s what you can give Cheating yourself Is cheating yourself Convolute the model You’re cheating yourself You can play both sides forever …and basically giving up freedoms Giving up freedoms is never a good idea Even false information means something And frankly, once you give them up It’s always harder to define them again in the long run Even false information means something Never accept simply what is presented The world is a complex entity The world is a complex entity It’s really about something else entirely The world is a complex entity The world is a complex entity Even false information means something You can play both sides forever But you will never win The world is a complex entity The world is a complex entity The world is a complex entity The world is a complex entity It’s what you can give Cheating yourself Cheating yourself Is cheating yourself You’re cheating yourself You’re cheating yourself You’re cheating yourself You’re cheating yourself. You’re cheating yourself I painted myself into a corner I’m going to paint myself out We watch the programs and commercials your child watches carefully He may see bad guys, but not in the role of heroes He’ll learn that crime doesn’t pay Because your child’s welfare is out concern too That’s part of our code The code of the National Association of Broadcasters For television in the greater public interest Your child’s welfare is out concern Go ahead and live your life That’s what I’m gonna do with mine A screen is a veil

about

This project is the result of a random jam 2 years ago. We got the urge to bust out a record together as we were playing at Happy House rehearsal space at 68 Jay Street in DUMBO. This recording was done in a weekend at Mozart Street Studios. We put that limitation on ourselves. Doing a recording project limited to a 72 hour window was a new experience for me. Minimal overdubs. Live tracking, improvisation.
The plan to self release vinyl fell by the wayside due to lack of funds. My own inertia during this crushing pandemic got me thinking about this and other loose ends that all artists have. Working on art and music during this turmoil is a a much needed way for me and other artists to communicate and stay connected. Consequently I am releasing this digital record on behalf of Century Waste. Thank you, Julie Hair
