A Little Rain
We could use a little rain
What the world needs is a little rain
Tomorrow the sun will come again
What the world needs is a little rain

Love Kamikaze: The Lost Sex Singles
Micahel Franti will do solo acoustic shows in Melborune and Sydney when Spearhead come to Austrailia for the Melbourne Jazz and Blues festival.
The shows coincide with the release of a new limited edition CD, Love Kamikaze: The Lost Sex Singles, which features six previously unreleased Franti/Spearhead tracks.
It seems the CD will be on sale at the shows (and possible later on Spearheadvibrations just like Songs From The Front Porch.)
I Know I'm Not Alone
Dan has found a video of the song I Know I'm Not Alone, the first time it was played. The lyrics are also available. Thanks Dan.
New lyrics
We've added some new lyrics (see below). Dan has sorted them all out. All songs are unreleased and lyrics taken from live performances.
We're back!
Thanks to Matt and Jen of loveisdashit.com for getting us back up - updates soon and please report any torubles with the site.
My email is back up richard@freakyandfree.com
It's so out of date!
It was been pointed out on the Spearhead Music Board that our chords (and also lyrics) are unreliable (incorrect). This
is a communication failing on our part. Also an indication of our slackness. Most of the chords
and lyrics have been sourced from the first (or early) live perfomrance. Some songs have since been commercially released with slight (or major)
changes. It has been an oversight on our part NOT to indicate the source performance of the lyrics or chords. In future we will
endeavour to attribute the source of the lyrics or chords. For example, both the chords and lyrics of Bomb The World were taken
from an early live performance, the lyrics and chords are not an entirely accurate in regard to the CD release.
We have recently posted chords and ltrics to a new song Life-saver. It was posted by loveisdashit.com from a March 30th performance at Santa Rosa.
Who knows, if it will ever recieve an offical CD release and with what differences in lyrics, melody or in key? From now on we will
acknowledge the source of these lyrics (and maybe even update when a commerical release is made!) in order to communicate the accuracy against an officail release.
Over the next few weeks we will attempt to go through the all lyrics and chords to acknowledge their source.
Thanks for your patience and understanding with this!
This site will now focus on lyrics, cd covers for the field
recordings, general info, setlists and past tour info.
If you have any chords or other info please send it in - even if you sent it before! I lost all my old emails as well.

Reggae On The River
8/28/2002
After a brief update from her travels in South America,
Julia Butterfly recited a poem that she wrote earlier in the day. Next followed a
recorded message from Mumia Abu Jamal to the graduating class of '02 and everyone else. The the Boyz slided into
Love Invinsible then looked alittle confused before slamming into Soulshine. People In The Middle was very bass heavy and
Carl proved it when he broke a string and Radio had to beatbox the bass line for abit until Carl grabbed his other bass
and finished up the song.
They then rolled into a pretty standard Every Single Soul into Stay Human. Stay Human was strong and included an appearence
from a handload of freaky people with 15 ft. puppets, stiltwalkers, firedancers and other assorted costumed freaks.
Never Too Late was next and is sounding very good with it's progression and Michael singing "whoa-o whao-o-o,
Whao-o Whao-o-o" and the band and crowd calling back! From there Carl and the band chimed in with the riff for
Everyone Deserves Music. Not long after, Carl once again had problems with his equipment, this time his amp.
They got the problem worked out and he was good to go for the rest of the night! Next came the highlight of the night for me,
the long awaited U.S. debute of What I Be and Pray For Grace which were performed perfectly. They almost sounded like they
had been playing those songs for years! And if that wasn't good enough, the dropped a bomb on us with another new strong,
rocking ballad type song called "Love Why Did You Have To Go". Feelin' Free followed with the guys getting very dubby and
reggaeish with it. After a very short breather, Radio entertained everyone with his Panflute and beatbox intro before
leading the band into Rock The Nation to finish the set very powerfully. The M.C. got the crowd up for more and the guyz
came back out for Bomb The World and, of course, Sometimes which featured another appearance from the freaky people and a
couple members from Bongo Maffin. Overall a pretty tight show!!!!!
