a fairly new Christian rock band has been working up
our first batch of songs ...
unfortunately for us, our singer can't continue ...
=(
fortunately for "someone" out there, there is a spot
to be filled fronting this band ...

it's pretty much straight-up rock with 100% original
Christian content ...

Welcome to another fine Uneven Ground newsletter. The opinions expressed in the
following email are not necessarily opinions.
Foop.
==========================><>
In this issue:
1) The Video for Over4 is Online!!
2) Speaking of "Online"...
3) Gig Report
4) Merch and Dice
==========================><>
1) AFTER MUCH ANTICIPATION the video for the latest Uneven Ground single,
"Over4" is now online. It's a pretty big file, so dial-upper's beware. A
crummy, shrunken-head QuickTime version should go online someday. Check it out
and let da band know what you think. The budget for the video was a whopping
$65 and was filmed and edited by friends of UG, Crooked Dirt.
www.unevenground.ca is the place to be...
2) SPEAKING OF "ONLINE" the website has a new look. Go see it!! It's looking
swell and the upgraded version is both user friendly and chock full of goodies.
Hit the media section to see what I'm saying. They've rounded up old studio
tapes which should help you get a glimpse of the madness that is Uneven Ground.
There'z wallpaperz, lazerz, and bootleg vid from the launch party. So download
away and enjoy!! www.unevenground.ca
3) GIGZ ARE COMING and a few have been posted online!!! Here's the
list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here's more exclamation
pointz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well folks, I'm back! Yep. R. T. Fufkin, full-time foose-ballist, returns to

This Email Brought to you by Sztramko 4-Ply Toilet Paper - "For When You Gotta
Dig Deep!"
====================================================================
1) THE LAUNCH PARTY WAS INSANE!! I managed to sneak in the back way for this
sold-out event and go unnoticed in my band-wife constume. After a quick look
around, I recognized that I could have easily taken on the two skinny little
dudes working the door. Anyway, the party was awesome. There was food (piles),
ladies, lights and loafers... There wast an great number of UG fanz and friendz
there, some ex-UGites and some other coolsters rounding things out. And did I
mention the skinny kids working the door? They blew up this killer intro video
re-capping the band's history which went into... the video for Over4!! I had to
watch it through a lot of huge bangs, but it was awesome!! And it looks like...
well anyway, then this countdown kicked on saying it was 20 minutes until
show-time. The room was hyped... or allergic to the punch...
And then the band kicked it. The show rocked with some great new tracks, some
classics from Arkona Fairway (including a medley) and an Encore which was
absolutely CLASSIC. Let's just say, 2 songs, one of which was "stupider" than
the other (yes, actually, I own the rights to "subtle"). So for those of you
who missed it... I weep and wail for you. But fear not, UG will be trashing a
town near you VERY soon. The tentative tour schedule is BIZZY!!! They'll be
everywhere!
***Someone sent us this link to some bootleg pic's and even a short video from
the "Lunch Party". Enjoy quickly before the lawsuits begin!! ;)
http://members.rogers.com/rubic3/ug.htm
2) SPEAKING OF TOURING, Uneven Ground is looking at the proposed schedule as we
speak. Booking is going great and there's talk of an East Coast tour II this
summer. Maybe without the broken down Van escapade. If you're interested in
helping with booking and you're from or connected with the east-coast
(Quebec/New Brunswick/Nova Scotia/PEI/Newfoundland/Ireland or any New England
States), drop a note to wherez_tha_giddar_@... and we'll get some
info out to you. So stay tuned for dates @
http://www.unevenground.ca/shows.htm.
Currently, only one date has been released publicly. JSn & B-Rian will be
heading back to some familar territory in May as the band hits Christian Life
Assembly in Port Colborne. This will be an intense show, without a doubt. The
full show info can be found on the shows page (URL above).
3) WALL PAPER IS YOUR FRIEND, WHICH MEANS that Wal-Mart has made the poorest
marketing decision ever: They will not be carrying the life-sized Uneven Ground
wallpaper, which allows one to feel as if they're in the centre of some serious
rockin' out. This killer deco-gear is, however, available @ Raghib Lebowski's
3-Knuckle-Shoe Emporium in Stratford, Ontario. Git some. IF you git some,
please send us pictures. IF you git some, please see a specialist.
4) WELL, THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE (www.unevenground.ca) had to do some shuffling
around, and so the webisodes are there for a few short more while-bits. Better
hurry (again). With the change in gate-keepers and stuff, the update is a bit
late coming down the wire. But there is a brand new poll
(http://www.unevenground.ca/poll_page.htm) and the news page is slightly
different. Also, the shows page has been updated. Go. Visit. Read.
Mousercise.
5) A WHOLE NEW SITE IS COMING down the sewer as we speak. If I were you I'd
stay at the computer hitting reload until it launches. Visit the UG Guestbook
and tell me and the ladz what you think should appear on the new site. Chances
are someone might read it.
6) SHAVING YOUR HEAD IS HARD WORK I think. My hair just fell out, so I dunno.
But if you're going to shave your head, why not shave the simplified UG logo
into the side or back? Very soon @ www.unevenground.ca, head-shaving templates
will be available. Don't miss out!
7) FOR ALL THE PEOPLE THAT WUSSED OUT after the table of contents... HA! Here
are the top 3 poll results for songs YOU want to hear this tour. Surprisingly,
#1 was not Enter Sandman.
#1 Stupider :: #2 TIE - Dysfunctional & Sour :: #3 Rocketman (Satiate EP)
8) BE ENCOURAGED Y'ALL!!
Spring is here. A new beginning of life for so many things. Baby animals, new
plants, awesome weather... Winter was long and sometimes the winters in our
personal lives are even longer. Be encouarged that The One Who created all
these new beginnings has a special place in His heart for you. May God bless
you, until we meet again!!
RT & UG too.

=========================
Welcome to the most hotly anticipated bit of reading this side of the Weekly
World News, the official Uneven Ground newsletter.
1) Apologies re: Technical Difficulties
2) 24 Hours Only!!
3) Rumour Mill
4) Feed The Need
5) Feeling "Poll"ish? So is B-rian!
=================
www.unevenground.ca
=================
1) WE'RE REALLY SUPER-VERY-SORRY for the technical difficulties that attacked
the site. The huge amount of web-traffic generated by the release of the new
single (Over4) necessitated a server upgrade, which in turn necessitated that
the site be re-posted. In the midst of that the master-controller was disabled
by hardware issues. Everything should be back to normal and ready to handle
whatever traffic may come. And since there's a ton of bandwidth to be gobbled
up...
www.unevenground.ca
2) THE WEBISODES HAVE BEEN UPGRADED!! Now you can download higher resolution
versions of the 3 "Getaway" webisodes, but only for about 24 hours. Sometime
Friday they will disappear forever from www.unevenground.ca. So get them while
they're hot! Just hit the site, surf into the media department and click the
webisodes link.
www.unevenground.ca
3) RUMOUR DEBUNKING IS A good way to kill a few precious hours, so here you go.
Rumour: Is there a video for "Over4" Answer: It turns out, there IS! How can
you see it? The only answer to that is patience. The video has been shot and
edited. A few post-production items remain on the list. Who filmed it? All
will be revealed in time, glasswhopper.
Rumour: The band is considering pursuing a special holiday in their own honour.
Answer: No. Some nut-burgers have been spreading this beauty. There will never
be an "Uneven Groundhog Day".
www.unevenground.ca
4) SO YOU'VE LISTENED TO OVER4 LIKE A BILLION TIMES AND all you can think of is
"I need more UG"... well, it has been confirmed that the band will be
releasing two more tracks via the web before Summer touring kicks in. No date
has been set, but everyone in attendance of the Launch Party (no seats left!!)
will have them next Saturday. How sweet is that!?!? These tracks are intense,
each in their own way, and many of you will recognize one of them... ah, the
suspense.
www.unevenground.ca
5) OK, SO THAT "POLL"-ISH THING WAS LAME, but I'm no Arty so it's all I've got.
Anyway, UG wants your opinion about what rarities to play on the upcoming tour.
Where's the poll? Well... "The front-page is connected to the news-page and
the news-page is connected to the poll-page..."

Hey - just wanted to let everyone know that I am organizing a special
festival for July 1st. Part of this special music festival is that
it has a Christian Battle of the Bands contest. It has a lot more
but - we are still looking for bands to fill that stage as well as
the main stage. Anyways - take a look at the website - it will tell
you more than I can. www.ocl.net/projects/tillsonburgmusicfestival/
There is an application page that has all of the applications for the
different venues etc. Hope to hear from you.
We are still looking for sound/light companies to do their stuff for
this event - so get back to me:festivalofmusic@... if you are
interested in tendering and I will hook you up with the right person.
Hi, we are currently looking for bands to play for our 2nd annual
show in Oshawa, ON, Shake and Bake @ the Lake. It is a free outreach
show, therefore we cannot pay the bands much. However, bands are
encouraged to sell their merchandise to gain profit. We usually get
a couple hundred kids out. Last year we had Hawk Nelson, Rides
Again, Finding Agnus, and SK88.
If you are interested and would like to be involved in this outreach
event, please email marianne.barry@...
keep rockin'

2) THE UNEVEN GROUND WEBSITE IS GOING TO undergo some house-cleaning this week
and several of the candid pic's and all of the webisodes will be disappearing
from the site. A new Webisode is coming soon, but the current 3 will only be
available for download for another 48 hours. Get 'em while they're still warm!
www.unevenground.ca
3) THE BOYS HAD A BLAST ON THE SET of The Honeymooners recently. Be sure to

www.unevenground.ca
4) THE WINNER OF THE REFER-YOUR-FRIENDS-TO-Over4 contest, who will take home a
free ticket to the exclusive Uneven Ground Launch Party on March 34 (April 3)
is... Dana Nant! Congrats!
**UG suggests Dana use her good fortune to bring a lad!
You guys all did awesome and made the hit counter spin like mad!
www.unevenground.ca
5) IT SEEMS SOME FOLKS HAVE HAD TROUBLE downloading Over4 to their computers.
You need to right click the link and select "save target as" and pick a
destination. Easy like Sunday morning. Be sure to hear the track somewhere
besides your 2" computer speakers, if you can!
www.unevenground.ca
6) IT SEEMS EVERYWHERE YOU GO ON THE INTERNET there are rumours about what's
coming up for Uneven Ground... The two most prevalent, first sited on the
Flintstones message board are that a new single will be hitting the web soon and
that a video for Over4 is in the works. When asked about these rumours band
manager Ringo Starr denied that there was any truth to the hype. Or if there
is, no-one told him.
So watch out for such rumours and be sure to spread your own!!
www.unevenground.ca
7) A FEW SPACES HAVE COME AVAILABLE FOR THE Exclusive Uneven Ground Launch Party
and we've decided to open those spots up to you, the list-ites. If you'd like
more info, email launch@.... The event will occur in Woodstock on
March 34 (April 3). More specific details are available via direct email.
There is likely to be only a short time to get these tickets and once they're
gone, they're gone.
www.unevenground.ca
8) NEWS. MOVIES. MUSIC. VIDEO GAMES. EMAIL. WEBCHATS. blah blah blah!!
It's amazing, if you look at it, how little time any of us spend thinking and
reflecting nowadays. It's a time of download-an-opinion, zip-file-morals and
mp3-emotions. The truth of the hugeness of God and all that surrounds us has
been swallowed up by blinking lights and ringing phones. Many of us give the
odd passing thought to "What am I doing here?" between magazine articles and
firing high-powered e-rifles, but it rarely gets our attention long enough to
harvest a lengthy introspection. Have we allowed the media to rob us of our
capacity think and make realizations? Can we only connect dots that are close
together?
Here's a challenge: Take some quiet time, maybe outside (the days are
lengthening and warming up), all alone and look around. Look inside. Look up.
Switch off the Sony Taskmaster, unplug the brain-sucker and poke that fat little
green MSN dude in the eye.
Disconnect and let your mind wander where it will. It'll hurt a bit, but the
rewards of letting your mind find some truths are immense. Just think. Ponder.
Wonder. Talk out to the sky and see if anyone's listening. Disarm the Weapons
of Mass-Distraction, at least for a while and see what happens.
Proverbs 4
25Keep your eyes straight ahead;
ignore all sideshow distractions.
26Watch your step,
and the road will stretch out smooth before you.

1) Over4 is live!
1b) Review snippets!!
2) Who got a free pass to the launch party?
3) What Launch Party??
www.unevenground.ca
The new guy, Calypso here. I'm not funny, so let's just get to it, shall we?
1) THE NEW SINGLE, "OVER4", IS NOW LIVE on the website! A special thanks to the
nearly skads of people who've downloaded it already. Pass the link around!!
Bringing this music to everyone is a team effort. Go team... or something.
www.unevenground.ca/over4
1b) SEVERAL LISTENERS HAVE TAKEN THE TIME to send in reviews of the new single.
Here are some snippets (no it's not strange no-one said anything bad)...
"Awesome Song! I can honeslty say one of the best songs ive heard in awhile!"
"...this is the best thing I have heard for a while. This is an amazing sound
you guys are putting together."
"sounds really cool, nice and crisp, i really like your vocalist... good job and
good luck"
"Over4 is so phat it could clog arteries!"
yada yada yada...
www.unevenground.ca
2) UNEVEN GROUND PUT OUT A CHALLENGE to a few members of our list to drive
people to the song page (www.unevenground.ca/over4) and listen and submit
reviews. The contest has been extended and opened to the whole list. What do
you do? Email everyone you know who has the internet and at least one ear.
Tell them to check out the song and submit a review (good or bad) and tell us
who sent them. The person with the most responses with their name on them will
receive a FREE pass to the Launch Party. The small group we contacted
yesterday, managed to drive a lot of traffic in, but we decided to see if anyone
else on our list could top them. We definitely had a clear winner, but maybe
one of you can surprise us and get even more reviews in?? Who won from
yesterday? Well keep at it and we'll announce early next week!!
www.unevenground.ca
3) WHAT LAUNCH PARTY, YOU KEEP asking... and well you may! Uneven Ground is
hosting a Launch Party as the starting point of a whole new level of what
they're up to. The Launch Party is a limited seating, special venue event for
you, the fans and friends of Uneven Ground. An invitation list has been
prepared and some of you will receive specific RSVP invites. However, there are
a few slots open to the first people to respond. If you've already written in,
worry not, we have you logged. Some of you were already on the invite list,
which would explain a delayed response. Most of the details are available here:
www.unevenground.ca/launch
Extra details, which may help you decide: The event will take place in
Woodstock, Ontario, Saturday March 34th beginning @ 6:30 PM. For a chance to
get in on this awesome event featuring limited-time, admission-included
merchandise. Be among the first few people to hear the new UG material and
spend and evening with Uneven Ground.
www.unevenground.ca
4) heh... this one is for everybody who actually reads more than the index...
Uneven Ground is planning several special local area shows for the spring. Free
pass contests will turn up time to time in the hidden number at the end of the
emails...
BYE!!

1) New Single Release Date & Details
2) A Special Invitation
3) Miniature UG Introspective (by Jason Armstrong)
4) UG & the Grammy's
www.unevenground.ca
Hey guys, R.T. here bringing you the latest, sizzling news about UG the
un-self-proclaimed-4th-from-the-next-medium-sized-thing!
So welcome. Visit the website (www.unevenground.ca), sign the guestbook and
curl up with a good pet.
1) THE NEW SINGLE has been given a release date! The brand new UG studio track,
"Over4", will be released on the website on February 29. Guitar-tech JSn said
of the release date "We picked it cuz it's not a real day... not usually." Yes
folks, @ midnight, February 29 (That's right after 11:59 pm, Feb 28) the doors
of grandeur will swing open and stuff. Be the first one in your neighbourhood
to put "Over4" in your file-sharing folder!
This track, along with 2 others were recorded @ Studio A in Detroit, Michigan
and @ The Music Room in "Just-outside-three-small-towns", Ontario.
www.unevenground.ca
2) UNEVEN GROUND IS HOSTING A VERY special event, coming up soon. The official
Uneven Ground launch party is a limited seating event for fans and friends of
UG. The band will be playing a full set, including first-time performances of
several brand spankin' new UG songs, along with a track or two that haven't been
heard live in years. There will be food, merch and everyone in attendance will
receive a special promotional kit (available nowhere else!) including a CD
containing the new single, two other studio tracks and some very cool extras!
Capacity for this event is very limited and a portion of the seating is reserved
for invited guests. Tickets will be $10 and are available on a first-come,
first-served basis. Time and Location are TBA, but if you want to ensure a spot
(or two) email the band @ uglaunch@... right away with your name and
contact information. 411 on location will be dispersed only to confirmed
attendees. There will be no "At-The-Door" admission available.
www.unevenground.ca
***Warning, #3 is self-indulgent introspect from the guitar-tuning-guy. Read at
your own risk.***
3) "THE FIRST ALBUM Uneven Ground ever recorded, was done in Detroit, Michigan,
back in about 1995. The album was never released (with good reason...). The
first Album UG ever released was recorded @ the Music Room in Ontario. It's
interesting that the culmination of years of ups and downs have arrived at an
exciting new release, recorded in both those places, landmarks for the band.
Things have changed a lot since that first album, and even since Arkona Fairway.
One thing is the same, though. UG writes music that comes from inside, whatever
style it needs to be, whatever needs to be said, and always with intensity. The
material that's in process even as I write this is just awesome. Nathan and I
have both grown as musicians and song-smiths (heh) over the years and the
addition of seasoned bassist, "B-rian" (La Pinski, was it?) and his deft low-end
craftsmanship, along with the awesome song-writing and singing talent that UG
alumnus Tony Lavender has brought back into the band (Tony was the singer on our
first official release, the EP Groovekrank) is making for a very satisfying
song-writing experience. Sharing faith makes the fabric of this group
all-the-more tightly knit. I'm very pleased with where UG is headed. The
direction is new, but we've not abandoned our old fans. It's an excellent
transition (as will become clearer in the next couple of months) between the
band that was and the band that is.
Mmm hmmm, and how!"
www.unevenground.ca
3.1) THE SITE HAS BEEN UPDATED with new pictures. Look for a "page 2" link in
the promo-pic's section for some shots from the studio. www.unevenground.ca
4) "UNEVEN GROUND DID NOT appear on the Grammy's. That was Sting. Just to set
the record straight." - Kojak, Drum-Tech, UG.
Alright, there you go. Nothing too clever to say just now. Hm. Hope this
doesn't get me fired. Ack! My backspace key is busted...

Greetings to the faithful:
Hello to all of you [h]EADSPACE (and Zacc's Tree) fans that ever were. It's been
a while since I've written to you and for that I apologize. It has taken some
time for us to see how things might play out for us as a band and so, I've been
waiting for something concrete to pass on to you. And here is where we are
at......................
I suspect that the word has already made it's way to many of you already, but
for those who have no yet been enlightened, [h[EADSPACE has decided to part
ways. But please, weep no tears for us!! We are incredibly excited and in some
instances almost giddy about what the future holds. For Jason Rusnak, bassist
extraordinaire, it means another incredible child in the next few months and an
opportunity to share his talents with us in a more "worship focused" setting.
For Jamie K, it means an opportunity to strap on his guitar and hit the road
with Canada's favorite rock band "Thousand Foot Krutch!" From JP Smits, long
time member of Zacc's Tree, we anxiously await a killer solo album! Keep your
eyes open for that in the near future. And for myself............. well, I too
am about to be a father yet again, and as much as I love to play for you all, I
am looking forward to stepping it up as a dad and a husband. I guess the ideal
would be if we could just ROCK OUT for you all, just one more
time...................... er............................what's
that??.......................
THIS JUST IN: [h]EADSPACE LIVE FEB 13TH AT THE OWEN SOUND ALLIANCE CHURCH!
That's right! We are completely stoked to put on one last show for you all! It
will include some songs from our Zacc's Tree days, our [h]EADSPACE days and some
unreleased tunes that we never got a chance to share. You guys/gals have given
us so much over the last 6 years and this is our last chance to pay you back via
rock n' roll and to let you see firsthand how much we appreciate you and all the
great memories that exist because of you. The only catch is this. You have to
show up to receive the gift. So please, mark it down on your calendar and tell
all of your friends. It would mean a lot to us. It will also give you an
opportunity to witness the acoustic phenomenon that is Mr. Joel Morelli
(www.joelmorelli.com) as he opens up the night with a half-hour set. Please
check www.jkbooking.com for more info on the night and the venue location etc.
I'd also like to take a second to extend my thanks to those of you who are
clearly to far away to make it to this show. Again, we have something special by
which to remember every gig. And many of you have imprinted yourselves on our
brains whether you realize it or not. Thank-you is not powerful enough,
but....................it's all I've got, so THANK-YOU SO MUCH!
God bless you all. We hope to see you Feb 13th.
Till then..................
Jamie Kennedy &
[h]EADSPACE

Russell as good, manafest, Jeremy Camp(not sure if he will draw more teens or
more adults). um lets see, you could also try some one that has never been here
before like um.........Kevin Max, or Toby MAc, or crossmovement. Maybe Pillar or
Bleach(seeing as they are calling it quits on August 19th)
Hope those are of help to ya man

Hey everyone in Curio....please forward this to anyone who might care:
Thanks all ~ Jamie k ~
We just wanted to let you know of the latest JK BOOKING tour that's coming your
way as of the new year. Starting January 7th, the "Jamie k ... Praise & Worship
Experience" will be hitting the road for the first time in 2004. The night will
include a combination of music and ministry; an hour of worship time with Jamie
k and live band and the other hour will feature world renown author and speaker,
RYAN DOBSON. For those of you who don't know who Ryan is, he's James Dobson's
son (ok so I dropped a name...so what??)
The idea of the night is for Christian kids to be encouraged with their faith
through Ryan's speaking as well as a time to engage themselves in a very modern
praise and worship experience. This will be a great night for seeking and newly
committed Christians to take part in a non threatening "church service."
We're trying to keep the costs as low as possible to keep it affordable to you
as well as us. This is NOT meant to be a money making
tour we just need to cover costs such as Ryan, travel, lights, sound, etc. We
will be providing FULL lights and sound with this tour.
Are you interested? We are looking to fill dates between Wednesday January 7th
to Friday January 23rd..... so feel free to contact me with the date that you
are interested in. The buyout price of this event is yet to be determined,
however I can assure you that it will be very affordable. We are even looking
into sponsorship to help bring costs down even more.
We really just want this to be a spiritually uplifting night for your kids to
enjoy as well as yourselves and other youth leaders.
Thanks again for your time and please don't hesitate to contact me for more
information.
Peace and Love
