Burning Rain Messages (Bad Moon Rising)

Thanx for your support to all of us.

To all our friends in Japan,
From Kal Swan & Doug Aldrich

How are you all doning? Good we hope. Though we know that Japan's economic statehas fallen on some tough times, we know that Japan is still strong and can get overthis difficult period. BMR has also had some tough times as well, which leads us to the reason for this statement.

With an eight year career as a band, Bad Moon Rising now has decided to call it aday. It is very unfortunate, but we feel that we have done everything we could doas BMR. We have always tried to produce the best possible music that we could. Sometimeswe tried new things to push ourselves, even though some people might not have agreed.Butwe believed in what we were doing. Now its time for everyone to carry on his ownway and go on to the next stage.

We are extremely grateful to all of you for all your support and work on our behalf.Everytime we went to Japan, we found great times with you, and that has become animportant part of our history. Ian and Jackie are also very proud to be a part ofthis family. As for the two of us, we still have amazing memories from LION.

Though we are heading for new destinations individually, we will never forget thetime we had in Bad Moon Rising with you,

Best Regards and Love, ... Kal Swan & Doug Aldrich UP

Sorry I couldn't say so yesterday, But yes it is true. First let me explain about BMR. The band is not dead. Kal and all of us want to come back, but unfortunatly we cannot record a new record at this time. Kal and I both as well as Jackie and Ian will be pursueing other projects at this time. I don't know how Young Guitar knows this and I am sorry you had to hear it from a mag instead of me. But I am only writing songs. These are the ones I was thinking would end up being BMR but since that can't happen I want to do a new project to record them. Kal has been working on his solo songs as you know. I think this is really his goal at this time. We both support each other and will help each other with anything we can. I feel that Kal and I will work together again but untill then we all still need your support and understanding. I feel really bummed out about the way this is, and I know you are too. But we don't want to record as BMR untill we can do it right. I'm sorry I had to be one to tell you but I couldn't wait. Sincerely DOUG UP

Congradulations!!! it is all because of your hard work. Thanx to you and all the Bad Moon Rising fans all over the world!!!!.

As for the word on Young Guitar I just found out about it today. Kal and I have been talking about what to do but not sure yet. UP

I feel very sorry that there has been no news about B.M.R. but it is very complicated why BMR is on such a long wait. I think that we need to figure out some things before we can start working on a record.
It means alot to me and Kal that you guys care about us. And He and I have written together in Nov., and Dec. But nothing is decided yet. I will let you guys know what happens...O.K. UP
