WTF ? whats up with Rob Lind ?
COLIN of RAMALLAH w/ AF & Madball
For the next two week I have been asked to cover for my friend Rob. It is a true honor to fill his shoes in a time when personal issues in his life
have consumed him. It is also great to be on the road eating Waffle House, hanging with Jinx, Mike, Ben, Jesse, and Pierce. I love being on tour and
seeing friends from past tours at shows. I love the challenge of singing for a band tuned to drop B? I think. We are spending the next two weeks with
Agnostic Front, as you might believe I am acting like a little kid. Stigma!!!! If you have time, check out my band, Myspace.com/COAcentral
COLIN of ARABIA
PS, Waffle House
He is talking about filling in for Rob Lind,right ? If so,that sucks big time....I was going to see them tomorrow night with AF.

I was just gonna post this.... no offence to Collin, but what the fuck is the point of seeing Ramallah with ROB NOT SINGING!?!? Jesus Christ... that
would be like Murphys Law touring without Jimmy G, Sheer Terror without Paully or Slapshot without Choke.

Rob does have quite a drug problem from things ive read over the years so who knows.
ive also read that the band has a bad habit of not showing up.

At least the people get to see AF. I wouldn't have any interest in seeing Ramallah if Rob wasn't singing. Plus I don't think much of Colin's vocals
to begin with.

aside from this odd news, is there any further word about the books or the acoustic albums in the future? doubtful if he has problems he's dealing
with.

Shitty deal, I hope he's alright. I have alot of respect for his work over the years and hope he gets through whatever he has to at the moment. We
should send a Thorp bar get well card

That was posted after the Baltimore show, where Colin got pissed off at people wondering who the fuck he was and cut the "Ramallah" set short. No
offense to Colin, but the set sucked. AF played the tightest set I've seen them do, but I really went to see Ramallah, which isn't the same without
Rob. Oh, and the band only remembered about half the lyrics.
Rumor going around the show is that Rob is in rehab, though I have no idea if that's true or not. Hopefully Rob gets life straightened out soon.

Oh, and this is absolutely right, which is why people were asking between songs "Who the fuck are you?". Just not the same.

As if you don't get Buddah to fill in for your other band 
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

Yah I feel a little bad for Colin, I mean COA is decent, not one of my favorites, but everyone knows that Ramallah IS Rob Lind. The rest of the band
almost doesnt matter at all so if you take a band that really IS one guy and you take that guy out, whats the point to seeing the band? I wouldnt even
want to see BFB or S&S without Rob never mind Ramallah!!
