In many ways, Miles’ career can be seen as a spider web’s path to success. In 1964 he played drums on Michael Bloom- field’s “Don’t Say That I Ain’t Your Man.” Miles later joined BUDDY Bloomfield, after leaving the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, in forming a new band, Electric Flag. The band went on to make its debut at the Monterey Pop Festival. Miles would lead the band after Bloofield’s departure the next year, but the band’s sophomore effort was not well received.

O.K., where were we….oh, yeah ….. Conspiracy theories. Last month we looked at some of the questions that arose in regard to the Twin Towers and the infamous Building 7. But wait! There’s more! A number of questions have been raised concerning the events at the Pentagon as well as in Shanksville, PA.

Some theorists query as to why, according to the military officials, there is no video of Flight 77 hitting the Pentagon, except for 5 grainy frames from a security camera. Flight 77 disappeared from radar over Ohio and did not appear again until it was in restricted air space over the Pentagon. Only military air craft was allowed here. Why didn’t NORAD, Air Force, or Traffic Control radar pick up on this? Don’t we have the most advanced technology on the planet? Usually a plane flying into restricted air space would be immediately intercepted. This plane, according to the official report, was then expertly flown into the Pentagon, a very tricky maneuver indeed. In the news clips shown on all the major media, people in suits are shown combing the area and picking up small fragments of metal. Then a few guys are shown carrying a box that supposedly contains pieces of the engine. Is this ALL that is left of a commercial jet, full of people and luggage and stuff? Why isn’t anything found except a few pieces of metal? Why is the hole that was made in the side of the Pentagon too small for a commercial jet? Why didn’t ANY radar pick up on this flight? Why is there no video released of this?

Well, obviously these theorists didn’t read the official 911 report. You see, a guy that barely made it through flight school hijacked, then flew a huge commercial airline, firstly eluding radar in Ohio, then flew into restricted air space without anybody seeing him. He then expertly maneuvered the plane so low to the ground as to crash into the Pentagon. Of course, there is no evidence, debris, pieces of luggage, bodies, a fuselage, or anything that suggests a 60 ton airliner just crashed. See, I told you there was a logical explanation.

A strange coincidence, though, is that Donald Rumsfeld announced on September 10 that 2.3 TRILLION dollars was apparently misplaced at the Pentagon. How do you lose $2.300, 000,000,000.00? Well, we’ll never know because the accountants who were tracking down this money happened to be in the part of the building that was destroyed, killing them as well as the investigation. Hmmmm… O.K, you got me on that one!

26 - Brevard Live October 2007 Then there’s the situation in Shanksville, PA., the sight of the tragic crash of flight 93. What was left there was, according FOX news, nothing but a huge hole in the ground, about 20’ x 10’. Wally Miller from the Somerset County Coroner stated that it “Looked like someone dropped a bunch of scrap metal into the hole. There were no bodies.” Again, no luggage, engine parts, etc.

At 11:43 that day, local TV station WCPO in Cleveland reported that two planes had just landed at Cleveland Hopkins Airport. United Airlines confirmed the fact that one of the flights was Flight 93. Previously, at 10:00 AM, the airport was evacuated. They were informed that a hijacked airplane was to land there. After Flight 93 landed, Mayor White reported that the 200 passengers were then taken to an empty NASA research center. What the #@!$!!!!!

You know, for a bunch of high, wasted, paranoid loonies, these are some very intriguing questions. Well thought out and rather intelligent. They don’t sound like loonies as the main stream media profess. It makes me wonder….Why would our beloved government not tell us the truth? Are we too stupid to understand? Why won’t they answer these simple questions that more and more people are asking? Are all the hundreds of thousands of people who are asking these questions crazy, high, stupid, paranoid people? What does the government have to gain by being so evasive? (Actually, right off hand I can think of about 2.3 trillion reasons.) It makes me want to go down and ask some questions to the “WeAreChange” people. They meet on the 11th of every month on the corner of US1 and the Melbourne Causeway at 4PM. Of course, you can do your own research and see what answers you can find. Try www.911research.com, www. prisonplanet.com, www.infowars.com, or many of the others asking these questions.

Running Time: 132 Minutes This is Director James Mangold (I Walk the Line, Identity) delivering his remake of the 1957 Western that starred Glenn Ford & Van Heflin. This new edition gives us the chance to see 2 top-notch actors fight it out psychologically while we also watch an intense upstart Ben Foster chew up scenery in his own right. Bale (filmdom’s new Batman) plays down-and-out rancher Dan Evans who lost a leg fighting in the Civil War, and can’t quite make ends meet. To help earn respect from his wife and kids, he takes on a job to help escort a desperate desperado and thieving killer Ben Wade (Crowe), to a train station in Contention, Arizona, where the 3:10 train will take Wade to prison in Yuma. That’s a simple enough premise, right? But Director Mangold goes a bit deeper and shows us what drives each man and to what lengths each will go to get what they need. Mind games played on Bale by Crowe are like food items left on a back burner, about to come to boil at any time. Hot-lead gunplay is what propels this film, whether it’s bullets fired by the good guys or the outlaws. Foster plays Charlie Prince, a crazed and blood thirsty gunslinger who is Wades #1 bad-boy. Wade consistently steals scenes from the Oscar winner Crowe. Peter Fonda turns in a credible performance as a Pinkerton bounty hunter. This ain’t your daddy’s western movie, but it’s close enough. B

HALLOWEEN Starring: Malcolm McDowell, Brad Douriff, William Forsythe, a bunch of screaming teenage girls. Rated: R This is Director Rob Zombie’s gory rehashing of the chilling 1978 John Carpenter horror classic. Only this time we get a peek into the days leading up to that fateful 1st Halloween. The first half of this gorefest is kinda like a prequel. We see a very young psychotic Michael Myers taking on a fascination with masks and murder at a pre-teen age. He is loaded with rage & angst and definitely is at odds with his beer-guzzling, expletive-spouting father figure played by Forsythe, to whom he demonstrates very deliberately one evening the finer points of how to handle a baseball bat. And it’s trick-or-treat time from then on, which begins the downward slide of this movie. The 2nd half of this flick is a reenactment of the the original and does nothing to elevate the art form, as it is plodding and doesn’t hold a candle to the original. Zombie’s got a special knack for bloodlust, the forgetting logic, story construction and consistency of characterization. Scream and slash are his 2 mainstay fundamentals and his slaughter of teenage girls is, how you say Uhhhhhh...boring!!!!!! C-

28 - Brevard Live October 2007 THE INVASION Starring: Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig, Jeremy Northam & Jeffrey Wright. Rated: PG 13. Running Time: 113 Minutes This is the 4th attempt at retelling the body snatcher story that has been presented on film. What were Oscar winner Kidman & the new James Bond Craig thinking? Paycheck, Oh Yeah! Kidman plays Carol Bennell, a psychiatrist who discovers that the world, or least her immediate surroundings, has been invaded by an alien virus that wants to take over the earth by controlling human bodies. By falling asleep earthlings are then snatched and forced to live new lives with new meanings. Kidman’s son is immune from all of this and he and his mom get separated. She frantically searches high and low for her boy. Craig plays Ben, a doctor friend who offers advise and consolation as well as an endearing hug now & then. The inhabitants of the city walk the streets as if in a daze, trying not to give themselves away by sweating or showing emotion. Who’s been snatched and who hasn’t? Kidman does her best to perfume up this stinker. Craig is a blue-eyed wooden Indian, whose performance is at best forgettable. I HIGHLY recommend viewers to go to Blockbuster and rent the the original. It is every bit as great as this one is bad. This one is an Invasion of your pocketbook. D

CRISIS IN HOLLYWOOD On Friday October 19, the best of Orlando crashes into the Metro in West Melbourne with Crisis in Hollywood and Megaphone slated to perform. Just in case you don‘t recognize the name Crisis in Hol- lywood, you might remember the band by its original moni- ker, Adam to Atom. The band formed some three years ago but founding members Adrian Snyder (vocals and guitar) and Andy Wambach (drums) have changed the name in January after a handful of members jumped ship. The name change, however, isn’t all that’s new with the band. “I think the sound has changed quite a bit,” said guitar- ist Daniel Vallery. “It’s not such a drastic change to where people who liked Adam to Atom wont like the stuff we’re writing now. It’s just a little more mature.” Vallery said spends a lot of time enhancing the group’s songs with vocal embellishments. “For vocals, we realized that there are four members in the band who can sing, rather than just one lead singer and one backup vocalist. Usually, a lot of bands will just have lead and backup. It’s kind of cool to put four vocals into the band, granted you can’t always use all four at the same time.” If you’re a sucker for multilayered music swimming with coordinated lead and backup vocals Crisis in Hollywood will make you see stars. One song you can’t let these guys leave the stage without playing is “Tonight You Drink.” Picture an updated Goo-Goo Dolls inundated with indie rock. The show starts at 9pm, cost is $5 over 21 and $7 for those under 21. The Metro is located at 3020 W. New Haven Ave, West Melbourne.
