Due to a personal crisis, and a transitional situation, ITP V.015's author is taking perhaps 3 -4 weeks off from blogging.
NO, ITP V.015 is NOT DEAD, this extreme metal blog will continue at a later date. Perhaps some sporadic posts (at best) until MID MAY/EARLY JUNE 2015.
I'm ok, in transition, looking to rent a new place and resolve some issues. I'll (hopefully) be back to posting ITP V.015 after a two week to one month break to mid MAY or early June 2015. Hold me to this promise (motivation), I and ITP V.015 WILL be back no later than JUNE 2015.
REGARDING THE BALTIMORE, MARYLAND RIOTS:
FROM MARYLAND DEATH FEST 2015 PROMOTERS:
MDF XIII will happen according to plan. Don't believe any rumors.
Just let the ongoing events simmer down over the next week and we'll see you on May 21st.
ITP V.015 EDITORS NOTE: MDF 2015 is a frivolous footnote to what is really going down in Baltimore, Maryland with lives and local and regional business ruined. MDF 2015, even before the riots, really has no substantial site ( However, always an awesome lineup) as part of the fest is on a concrete parking lot.
Anyway, R.I.P. to FREDDIE GRAY, condolences to his friends and family, may his family, and the great city of Baltimore, Maryland find PEACE.
FROM GEORGE TAKEI:
My heart aches for the City of Baltimore, which saw riots following the funeral of 25-year old Freddie Gray, who died while in police custody due to severe spinal cord injuries.
As a Buddhist and a follower of the teachings of Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., I both understand, but cannot condone, the violence that has erupted. I have no easy answers for either those enraged by the continued racial injustice, or those appalled by the violent rioting and looting the whole world is seeing.

Many say there can be no peace without justice, but so, too, can there
be no true justice without peace. The riots must end before any progress
can be made; progress must be made so that riots have their end.
What none of us should do is remain silent or indifferent. Tonight and in the coming days, hold your children, your families, your loved ones. Talk to them, and your friends and co-workers, about your feelings and theirs, and understand the passions that underlay them. All of us in our own way care deeply about both the symptoms and the manifestations of this disease that plagues our nation and indeed the world. To recognize this shared desire for both justice and peace is the first step towards both.
