I did have a stack of vinyls to which he go graciously signed each and every one, only to add onto the nights flyer "R U Kidding" haha... Very funny Kory, dark ink on a dark background, but of course I would see it, I saw many things his fans didn't see. A short for instance, he played a short time with some guys from LA and I don't think he liked them much, he realized that they were using him, and another fan of his, who just happened to know I was running a website for him, not his band Warrior Soul, but him as a person, who started the band, he called me and said he'd observed things going on behind Kory's back, and said we really needed to think of a way to get him away from them, as he feared for Kory's life, they were doing a bit too much partying, and Kory showed a lack of interest in them. He went as far as to put some of his old lyrics saying so in one of their songs, and they let it go to press, none of them even realizing it. We got a giggle out of it, and to his amazement said "wow, you noticed that" - Well, of course I noticed that, as I was in it for what he had to say, not the "music' although he is great when it comes to music and mixing tracks and such. This really isn't about that, it's about humans, why we know each other, why we get linked to know each other and why.
There came a time in my life that I was not able to keep going with a website for him. I'd bought a house, and of course a home has to be a priority, and he understood that, it was not a let down, but I passed it on to another fan of his, and she's doing a great job at keeping it up and keeping up with where his bands are playing and the fans. As I told him, I am a fan, no more no less, just another face in the crowd that understood he wasn't just about the mainstream next catchy tune, but he had a focus, and his focus was about the world, and it's wrongs, and "lets try to fix them" speaking out to the rock world. Unfortunately in America, the kids want to rock, while the people in other countries were indeed hearing his plight of not being heard in America, his anger towards the downgrade of a country. Not happy at all, he saw to leave here, but he had to do it with the rock the kids wanted, and joined and formed several bands that gave those bleeding ears what they desired to achieve what he set out to do. Inform the world of what is, what was, and what would be to come.
What does this have to do with what I'm going to say is only for those who have the patience to see why I was "thrown out and banned from his newfound followers" HA, yes, it matters not, as I know the truth, and though others may know and understand the truth, they also know that in order for him to live his life, feed and cloth himself he needs to do what all of us need to do. We are slaves to the grind. (no pun on Skid Row's song, but the truth yet be spoken again) The almighty dollar in which it takes to live. He has to give them what they want because they are not listening to what he's really about. Here is a bit of why I was thrown out of his group. Other than the fact his groups founder was jealous of my knowledge of his past musical background, and ganged together with one of the newest bandmates girlfriends, they decided I had to go! I was telling the truth and I wasn't being kicked down, although he on the famous FaceBook, when they threw me out, the loyal fans closest to me left on their own, and some stayed, but they never visit the group, they never post to the group, and they certainly do not want anything to do with the trivial banter between fans that don't really understand, so they stay there, as to back Kory, and hope to gain him new fans. New fans to keep him going. Not at all disregarding the people who did help him produce and direct his new bands and projects.
How many really bought his one and only solo CD, the one I think is the greatest of all. Put together, but not if you're not politically inclined, then it's utter "put together SOUNDS" rather than what it has to say. Let me end this bit of him with just saying two words that would only mean to him, what it means to me and to other politically inclined fans - "Oil Cloak."
Pi - Infinitely linking humanity and fans through,
numbers so simply, yet so complicated.
Depending on your outlook.

I wrote this piece below, only to be removed from the group, because it was incomprehensible to those who want to rock, not thinkers such as Kory Clarke, or his fans who are deep thinkers.There is a link that as Pi, goes on and on and on... like the photo above, is both Pi, and Pie, and Pi. Pi being round, being infinite, without slicing the pie, it just goes around and around. Here is what got me band from his group, but someone who seemed to like everything I said, until I was going to share some spoken word pieces that I had shared with the original group already. The girlfriend didn't take kindly to this, and rather than seeing what was said, she saw what she wanted to see, that "I" was going to charge for these spoken word pieces of Kory's, when it was the groups moderator who suggested to sell them. Well, they were a gift from Kory to me, and he had no problem whatsoever in me sharing them with anyone else for free, so what this girl was thinking I have no idea, other than, she's just not thinking, nor maybe doesn't understand English where her "friend" and group moderator is the one who said sell them, not I. I would NEVER sell what should have went onto a CD for fans to buy without express permission from Kory himself. But I haven't spoken with him in quite awhile, as I am trying to do the same thing he is, LIFE MY LIFE. Neither of which includes each other. He's back on the road to success and away from the ones who wanted to bring him down and take his place, and that is all that mattered to me. So here is the "inside gossip" for those who are interested! Rather funny indeed.

My note - I will entitle
Electric Surface - 010101 on/off/on/off infinitely!
Kory wrote a spoken word piece called Electric Surface, and that connects us all, does it not?
A computer's motherboard is made from sand, made from the earth.

I added this one person who I have known for 19 years, and we met because of Kory - aka Warrior Soul, back when computers were basic black/white/grey/orange and everything ran on dos, no windows, no graphics, no web just one of the first services that broadened the scientists form of communication, and what branched off of them, people who also knew of electronic forms of communication and formed their own message boards, and their knowledge of how to use them and brought other topics of communication to us. So we met under a very bland form of communication, (GRAY) I was there first I thumbed through the music sections and found basic stupidity (NO put downs to people who just want to rock intended please take no offense) then I sauntered over to the political boards and found much conversations of why things were going in directions of politics and I stayed there for a while and only had communications with them. (as I may have mentioned State Folders for kids etc. was just coming into effect, as other parents concerned for their kids as I was, so I found a little political interest in bands like Metallica that struck interest (and rock, although Deep Purple were and Pink Floyd far beyond their years had my attentions) anyway, I speak with this one person I met because of one post of Warrior Soul, and it got us talking, thus landed us into a very long time friendship and I love him dearly, as I do the ONE other friend who also shot me an email (he probably sees this but JUST AS GEORGE, neither of them post) because they are very intelligent people, and them posting here isn't going to do anything to change the world regardless of how many people join the group, and it comes down to an equation that, "the hatred outside, really doesn't matter." We had a common ground on that, while that is a love song from Kory to his wife (Jane, not our Jayniiii B) ;) it is still profound in the fact that when you have love, you are lulled in to a safe place, and the world outside doesn't matter because (as noted earlier how much everyone 'loves destruction') we do NOT have a love for destruction, and we GOT THAT and stood on that basic common ground. I added George to make a point that we could add billions of people to this board, to bring them to Kory's music, past, present, future, and you're not going to change how the world really is what it does and what is to be or become of us because of a SIMPLE fact of a DEEPLY COMPLICATED matter, can you believe round is really square, or square is really round? Does that sound crazy? Well, if it sounds crazy, you need to take a look at the world, just as you'd say to a child who doesn't want to learn their math, "but everything revolves around mathematical equations." Everything comes full circle, *um Pi* - As George could tell you Math has been one of my biggest downfalls since he's known me, but out of the blue when the wisest of them all will say "what is that.. duh.. I can't think of it" and I have blurted out the right answer, then I think it was George standing there looked at me and said "OMG you did Math in your head" ... I wasn't thinking of it in that sort of term, because round IS indeedy square. He has seen a test score I got when I applied to work for the car factories in Michigan, that I score "average" in EVERYTHING, except for mechanical reasoning in which I have a score of 99%. (not math, "reasoning") for instance I was given a sheet for the test that had a PAGE FULL of gears, and a few minutes to give an answer, but I looked at the sheet and said the last gear turns "left/right" whichever way it was. I was the only female to pass and be 2 rows ahead of everyone, but the MOST IMPORTANT TEST I FAILED that didn't let me get the job.. was the drug test. Only one drug, and it grows from the earth, Miss Mary Jane. It was also the only time I had a perfect GPA, and strangely enough in Sorority (was invited to join) "Phi Theta Kappa" which breaks down to the Greek "Phi=Pi" and the meaning of this is, the world being a perfect circle (Pi) is going to have it's outcome regardless of how many people like, understand or get what true Warrior Soul is, Kory has tried and tried to explain what he's seen happen, and I know he would rather be in the UK, and close to the places that take him away from the fear he has of this country which was founded on murder, thievery and hatred, not on love which as the revolutions of the world are infinite. George did NOT need to be added to this group, but I invited him to make a point as he already has known these things, and what will come to pass just as I have already told before what is going to come will come, and we cannot control it nor change it. Yes, it's changing to become the Utopia that we'd all love to see, but while it's on it's way, there's going to be much destruction in it's path.
George, sorry I invited you, but I know there are an elite few who understand exactly what I'm saying, and you are one of those elite few, although more will, and the theme (as noted before I'm SO SORRY HON I HAVE FORGOTTEN YOUR NAME OFF TOP OF MY HEAD) here is everyone choosing the songs that aim toward LOVING destruction not HATING destruction.

(The song is specific to those to love to have and know war-destruction, not PEACE!)

Read his own words in interviews, not what people pushed him into saying, so don't read between the lines, read and feel the lines.
