To us music isn't ripped clothing or the style of who knows form of fashion, its not the fact that your hair's greasy and you don't bathe, no, not here brethren...
Music isn't about a scene nor a trend, it is more then that, not all of the bands make a big american stylish move. Its mostly an attitude of what's in you, not something you can fake or duplicate. It is a form of culture, And different ways of understanding through sound. To us Red Caps music is shelter, its all we do and love. It is a mixture of emotions and attributes through sound. Its what we do in Red Caps.

Music to me is the one song, the universe, I am it's antenna, it's conductor, It's servant. I am a slave to it, a junky to it, a symbiotic. The ultimate way to spread the meaning of wholeness and isolation. I Find it My duty as a human to spread the universal message of what it is to be human, what it is to be animal. Be one of the reptiles, slide in the nice under-belly, and go with it. Shear proof to MAKE YOURSELF OR BREAK YOUR SELF.

Hey, I had to remove the graphic from my comments. For some reason it wont load and it messes things up. I am going to re-add it. I copied it and will add it to hempower's myspace in a day or 2. Yeah, if you have some posters I can put those up when I restock the fliers at the various business I have placed them at.
For sure we want to get in with you guys. Is there anyway we can bandwagon onto that Kilby show? If there's room we want to do everything you guys are doing except that June 6th, we can't make that one.
Dr. Ken Larsen, former candidate for Utah governor and research scientist says that the law against Hemp is not only unreasonable it's unconstitutional. "I have $100.00 for the first person who can show me where in the Utah constitution it gives our government the authority to prohibit Hemp and another $100.00 for the same in the US Constitution". Larsen is confident that no one can collect on his challenge because neither constitution gives government the authority to prohibit it.
As things stand now, anyone growing Hemp will be charged the same as anyone growing Marijuana. The difference is that Hemp can't get anyone high. Valdez stresses, "You can smoke an acre of Hemp and the only thing you will get is a headache, you will never get high". McGuire also says that Hemp can be used to make high protein hemp milk, clothing, paper, paint, food, cosmetics, particle board, durable textiles, and even plastic bags.
Utah and the Nation faces ever increasing gas prices and problems with oil producing nations, McGuire says "We see this as a way to boost the American economy and help achieve energy independence.

CITIZENS CALL FOR END TO HEMP PROHIBITION MAY 17
LOCAL PSYCHEDELIC ROCK AND BLUES GROUP "RED CAPS" WILL PLAY FREE SHOW
As the price of fuel rises, many in Utah are looking for alternative answers to power their vehicles. "One solution is hemp", says local citizen activist, Daniel McGuire. The current resolution offered by our government is to use corn as an alternate fuel. According to McGuire there is a better option. "Hemp, is a much better alternative fuel for so many reasons". Some reasons offered are that corn should be used for human and animal consumption, since there is a limited supply of corn, and corn is not as renewable as Hemp.
Ben Valdez of Hempower Utah explains that Hemp is a crop that can be grown up to 4 times a year, depending on the region, where as corn has up to 2 growing cycles per year. "Acre per acre Hemp out produces corn", says Valdez. "The end result is that there will be enough fuel to power Utah vehicles as well as enough Hemp seed to feed both livestock and humans". Hemp, according to Valdez, has all the essential Amino Acids and Omega3 Fatty Acids to sustain human life. Hemp is a plant that " has a history of solving a vast amount of economic, fuel, food, fiber and agricultural problems". American history is painted with legitimate use of Hemp for legitimate commercial products. The problem is that Hemp is a relative of the Marijuana plant and is prohibited by US and Utah law.
Concerned Utah citizens realizing that hemp will be a boon to the economy in these
difficult times of soaring gas and food prices have secured a permit to gather at the State capitol Saturday, May 17th at 3:00
P.M. to organize, educate and activate the public. Local psychedelic rock/blues band, Red Caps will provide entertainment. The crowd will then march down the hill to the
federal building to protest the 1937 federal ban on hemp production. Hemp seed is high in protein
and contains all ten essential amino acids to the human body. Hemp contains strong fibers and
useful oils and is made into thousands of products all around the world including durable textiles,
rope, paper, clothing, shoes, automobile bodies, paints, canvasses, fuel, and even plastic bags.
Hemp has at least a 10,000 year relationship with humans. Industrial hemp is easily
distinguishable from its cousin, marijuana and does not contain enough THC to get anyone high.
There is no reason U.S. farmers shouldn't have the freedom to enter hemp into
their crop rotations. It is a plant that actually replenishes the soil it grows in. At the rally there
will be an open microphone and people are likely to speak on the above as well as medicinal
marijuana and the major problems of modern prohibition. Long time local activist, Ken Larsen will offer a crisp
$100 bill to anyone who can show constitutional authority either in the Utah State constitution or
the U.S. constitution for a ban on growing hemp. There will be hemp products on display and
hemp milk for the curious to sample. Everyone is invited. Please call Daniel McGuire at 859-8730
