[kj] getting shirty

getting shirtyDear Mike

This is a letter of solidarity from Jason Crompton

I sent an order to you for some of your lovely goodies to cheer me up before xmas which was great, with the intention of adding to my T-shirt collection this new year as my mental and fiscal balance recovers, only to find  the dreaded words  BANNED splurged all over them. This is a crime against humanity and a contradiction to all that I thought Killing Joke stood for. Having picked up on some opinions for this political abomination and potential breakdown of an artistic allegiance, that has symbiotically supported each other since its conception, I am left wondering - have I got the joke?

Whatever happens - Killing Joke make great music, you make great artwork - a marriage made in hell! 

I remember on the school bus seeing the first album cover and have been a fan of theirs and yours ever since. 

Surely it will be foolish to break a bond that many other bands would break their arm for. After all it would send a message to their fans that the support that got them nowhere was worth nothing !

Jason Red. ( thanks to my secretary, Juliet, for typing)

   If so I think you should still sell Tshirts with a slighly modified name, like when big supermarkets do their own versions and make it look almost the same. Off the top of my head -  Chilling Koke, fatal farce...... I'm sure you could do better but you get the general idea.....


  juliet, belive me i've given it some serious thought
  how about malicious joke at the top with wardance & cycling at the bottom?


  but i'd rather be positive
  now that malicious damage is back to being a label again let's look forward to new t-shirts for headcount, shriekback the orb and many others...


  cheers,
  mikey c
  the man with glee
