ÛÝ  ÞÛÛ²ÝÞÛ²Ý ßÛ°  ÛÝÞÝÛÛßÛ°ÛßÛ°Þ Û° rai: well, eclipse incase you ° Û Û  Û ÞÝ ßß   ÛÛ  ÜÜ ÜÜÜ Ü ÜÜÛdidn't know, was a local group° ÝÞÝ ÞÝ ° ° °° ²² Þ²²ÜÜÜÜÜÛÝÞÛ²i ran about a year ago .. it's° ÛÛ  ß ßß ÞÝÞÛÛ ßßß ßßßßßßßß ßßßbeing re-vamped .. there wasÛßß ÞÛÛ Þ² ÛÛÛ  ÛÛÛÛ ßß ÛÛÛÛÛ°² about 5-6 contributors, we're Û ß°ÛßÝÞßÛÝÞÝÞÛÜ°  °°° ÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛ°² coming back with 3 of the originalÛÛ ÜÜ ÜÜ ÜÜ ÜÜ ²° members and some more people too .. ÛÛÝÞ²ÜÜÜÜÛÝÞÛÛ ²°  ÛÛ ßßß ßß ßßßßß° scene guy: 3 original members? wow, that isn't very ÜÜÜÜÜ ß ÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛ many people .. ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß rai: yeah .. so what .. is there a rule that says there has to be a lot of people to run an ansi group? scene guy: well, if you only have 3 original members coming back, you must suck .. where have you guys ever been before in the scene? rai: well, i was in ice for four months, and grendel was in for a month too .. splatt was in acid and lagomorph was a great artist from cia .. there is also sirdeath, he was in apathy, and plain .. so i mean, there is only three original members, but we are gathering more talent too, from all over .. scene guy: hmm .. well, those are decent affils, but are you guys an all local group? rai: well, it started as one, but now we have accepted more members from ld positions .. such as sirdeath, and smokey, it is gonne be a type fun group .. we don't want to advocate laziness or anything, but we aren't going to be a dictatorship or anything, this group is just gonna have fun and mess around and kick out great art every month for you guys .. °ÛÛ °²ßßßßßß ßß scene guy: well, sounds pretty neat actually .. i like °ÛÛÜ ß ßßßßßßßßßß  the idea! but, why would you just ditch your previous °ÛÛÛ ÜÜÜ ÜÜÜ ßßßgroups like that? ÛÝ  ÞÛÛ²ÝÞÛ²Ý ßÛ°  ÛÝÞÝÛÛßÛ°ÛßÛ°Þ Û° rai: well, im not ditching anyone,  ÛÛ  ÜÜ ÜÜÜ Ü ÜÜÛi just felt like doing something° Û Û  Û ÞÝ ßß  ²² Þ²²ÜÜÜÜÜÛÝÞÛ²different, and having some fun ° ÝÞÝ ÞÝ ° ° °° ßßß ßßßßßßßß ßßßdoing it .. and it's not like there ° ÛÛ  ß ßß ÞÝÞÛÛ  ÛÛÛÛ ßß ÛÛÛÛÛ°² is people in ice that will holdÛßß ÞÛÛ Þ² ÛÛÛ  °°° ÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛ°² grudges against me or anything, ( i Û ß°ÛßÝÞßÛÝÞÝÞÛÜ° hope! :) ) this is definately notÛÛ ÜÜ ÜÜ ÜÜ ÜÜ ²° like i am leaving ice because i am angry with a member, ÛÛÝÞ²ÜÜÜÜÛÝÞÛÛ ²° or because i think ice is a stupid group or anything  ÛÛ ßßß ßß ßßßßß° like that .. i still think and probably will always ÜÜÜÜÜ ß ÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛ think that ice is the best run, nicest, best art group ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß in the scene, but this seemed like it would be more fun .. i wanna do something weird, and have some fun with my local friends, i mean, i have personally met all the people in this group, and it is gonna be a great time .. splatt had already left acid before his choice to join me in my quest to bring back eclipse .. and lagomorph probably feels the same way as me .. it is just something different to do .. scene guy: thanks for the essay answer .. jeez .. ;) well, what if yer group just dies? every other group seems to .. even after they say that they will be around forever .. rai: well, im glad you brought that up .. im not going to promise anything but as long as i draw art, i am pretty sure ill be drawing it here .. this group is gonna be around for a while, it just might depend on how the scene perceives it .. i hope you like the pak tho .. scene guy: well, i hope i do too .. is there any technical things that I need to know about yer group? rai: well, we will just be releasing ansi, and we will have an info file and member list ever month .. nothing special .. there is gonna be no vga .. i like vga dont get me wrong, but i just think the small ansi pak will be a nice thing to keep around .. there will be a little ascii from splatt but other than that we should be all ansi .. we will probably just remain a small group and try to please as many people as we can with our art! °ÛÛ °²ßßßßßß ßß scene guy: why do you keep using the same pictures for °ÛÛÜ ß ßßßßßßßßßß  me and you in this info file? i mean, dont you think °ÛÛÛ ÜÜÜ ÜÜÜ ßßßthat the people looking at this will be bored by it?

( heh.. im definately not comparing us to fire in any way artistically :) ) well, there isnt too much to say .. read this next section, and then check out our art! hope you enjoy! btw- there is no sites, just a whq and that is fall from grace, 1-616-791-7571 .. rai + ecl_ <------------------------------------------------------------------------------> now i've got a little story to tell, you guys are probably all wondering about what being in eclipse is like .. it's awesome let me tell you .. all of us eclipse guys share a cramped little room in an apartment, we dropped out of school, and all we do is draw ansi now .. so if we don't get better within a few months, let us know so we can shoot ourselves .. i don't think ive showered in about 3 weeks, all i do is stay up all night and draw ansi .. then i go look at my board and check out the activity .. the funny thing is, i havent slept in like 3 days, but i havent drawn any ansi, i keep trying but i mess up .. im a perfectionist i guess .. so ive trashed all my ansi that ive tried lately .. splatt is starting to get on my nerves, he is a damn mexican for god sake .. and he really smells, almost as bad as me .. its just this thing about mexicans .. grendel hardly ever shows up, he always leaves the house and does other stuff .. but lagomorph now hes a totally different story, he spends all damn day on the phone screwing around .. if we didnt have that damn payphone outside our apartment, he would probably just go live downtown where there is lots of payphones because he is constantly on that thing .. im starting to get sick of it, he needs to start drawing some ansi .. or we won't have any for our pak .. this is just one of the many ways that ansi brings people together .. if you wanna apply to our group, like i said, we live in this apartment with six cramped beds, so if you wanna join then you'll have to sleep on the floor or something .. because you have to live here to be in the group .. if anyone can get us a nicer house, we would really appreciate it, we've been saving up with all the money we made off ansis, but we only have 30 dollars .. so if you wanna buy ansis then it would help.. or you could just skip that and buy us a nice big house with like a bedroom for each of us .. because like i said, splatt and me are really stinking up the damn place, we dont have running water, and this room is filled with all kinds of taco bell wrappers .. its a pig sty .. if a public health official inspected this place he would probably quarantine it because it's unfit to live in .. sheesh .. we all started off with just us few local guys, me, splatt, grendel, lagomorph, red circle, and torgo .. its now looking like sir death is hoping to fit into here .. the nicest thing about this place is the spirit that torgo fills us with .. what a mascot, lemme tell you .. he's so cooky, he keeps us alive with all his spirit, with his weird cheerleader outfit .. i dont know what it is with him and cross-dressing, but it helps us when we can't get the ideas for ansis flowing .. he helps keep us awake, etc.. and if we ever try to get out of eclipse, he'll set us straight and shoot us if we try to escape .. once yer in eclipse, yer always in eclipse .. red circle just sits around and codes our web page .. maybe some day he'll actually finish .. that would be cool because nobody even knows we exist .. well, on top of it all, like we said, we're all anticipating sir death's arrival .. its like christmas twice a year .. we can hardly wait for the fun to begin .. a new roomie!! we're all preparing the welcome cake, and the banners and streamers .. throwing all those dirty clothes in the closet .. etc .. sir death isnt the only new guy comin to room with us .. also packing up his stuff to join our circle of ansi drawing buddies is smokey, also of plain productions! he's a personal favorite of mine lately, and it was a real great thing to hear he was joining!! we'll have to add a nice smokey to that welcome cake! this house is really gonna take a beating though, with all these new people! well, atleast we have our ansi and our music .. the sounds of screeching weasel, minor threat, nofx, millencolin, rancid and a variety of other lookout and epitaph bands fill our ears every day .. eclipse is the thing that bonds us together .. so just remember .. if you wanna start an ansi group, start with this thing called "absolute dedication" .. its our method, if you can't live together, then you can't run a group .. so im sure all you guys wanna rush out to apply for eclipse .. please, we need new roomates .. just read the member list for more info on getting into eclipse .. rai + ecl_ ...
