Me. I must talk to you.

Hey. I just want everyone to know that I love you all, and I thank you for supporting the idea of the project.

I am very sorry if I seemed to pressure anyone about the project, I was just very excited to complete the project and start promoting it better.

I know that there is a possibility that a decision will be made on who gets in on project 2. Please, respect one another. I know that there are many people that I misjudged and thought they were ignoring the project, when all along, they were just very busy. Or, if you just wasn't thinking about the project, that's cool too. I'm sorry that it did not interest you for whatever reason.

From now on, I will let you all make the decisions, and I will either approve or disapprove, and I will try to stay out of the way as much as possible, because there are people on here with VERY strong opinions.

All I ask is that you do the following things.


1. Love and respect each other.
2. Try to remain positive.
3. Keep the music free.
4. Give each other credit where credit is due.
5. Give me credit and look out for me with the future of the project (like website info, merchandise and CD royalites, etc.) I would always do the same for you.


Once again, this is not farewell, but I am going to let the bulk of the NFO make up their minds about the project. I will leave it up to the main designer (NFO) and the rest of the NFO members to decide what they feel is best, and I will be on here every now and then to see what people are doing and put in my :2C: .

Peace and love to you all. It has been a pleasure working with you all, and I look forward to Project 2.


Your friend,
JD

Aww - he's pulling that end-of-around-the-world-in-a-day trick, where Prince says "I'm going away for awhile, don't know when I'll be back" and then poof, 10 months later he's got a new record out.

I would like to say that I love everybody too. I know I have lots of opinions, and that might get anoying, but it's only because I care a lot about this project and my fellow NFO members.

If I have offended anyone in anyway, I'm sorry. I do not want to make anyone's nfo experience unpleasant. I have strong opinions, yes, but I'm always open to seeing the other side of an issue.

The most important thing here is the music and the message.

Peace,
Vina

Come on Jason, keep the funk alive in the NFO. Don't let them get you down. You know it's hard working with musicians, especially in a democracy. Now you see why Prince is the dictator that he is. That's the only way to really get things done. Everyone has to get behind the person with the vision and suck it up. Come on NFO get it together so this project can grow wings and fly...

I ain't going nowhere, Tal and Salles. I am just developing some ideas right now, and I think that the NFO members need some space to generate ideas and creativity. I am always around.


Peace,
