Ricky | Sunday, November 17 2002 | The QFN CD-ROM Contest |
I apologize to all those who won the contest and did not receive their prizes. Your personal information was not used and was not saved either, so your information will not be sold or shared with any third-party. My mailbox was full, and the e-mails that I received with the mailing addresses for the winners was deleted. If you still want a copy of the CD-ROM, you can e-mail me at quarashi@djillusion.com with the Subject Line: Quarashi CD-ROM, and I will send you the completed CD-ROM. Please realize that the CD-ROM now contains not only Quarashi videos, but TRUSTcompany, Lost Prophets, Nirvana, Linkin Park, Riddlin' Kids, and more. The CD-ROM also contains some photos and mp3s of emerging bands and artists. People living outside of the Latin America, USA, or Canada can also receive the CD-ROMs...but be aware that it will take longer for you to receive it. Thank you for your understanding...if you are upset and would like to yell at me...feel welcome to in the guestbook. - Ricky
Ricky | Tuesday, October 8 2002 | Official Quarashi Merchandise |
I apologize for taking so long to post this on the site, but Quarashi finally have their own merchandise! Their stuff is pretty cool, nice shirts...however I wish that the designs were a little bit different. I will create some new Quarashi: Selling Ice to Greenland T-Shirts soon when I re-design the website.
However, currently, SITG is the only site that offers Quarashi posters and stickers for purchase (they will be online in less than a month at our store).
Ricky | Saturday, October 5 2002 | The QFN will return |
Attention all current QFN members:
THE QFN IS NOW ON A 14-DAY TRIAL PERIOD. Once this period ends...you can't see anything on the site except the main page which is very annoying. Within the next month, I will work on the development of the brand new Quarashi Fan Network website. This site will be similar to the LPunderground site in setup: chat, media, message board, etc. This will be the place for Q fans to meet online. If you're a fan, and you don't know WHAT the Quarashi Fan Network (QFN) is...head over to www.theqfn.tk and find out today!
Ricky | Wednesday, October 2 2002 | Hilarious site |
I know this isn't Quarashi related...but I just had to share this site with you all. I'm sure everyone has heard or seen "The Osbournes" on MTV, but at MTV UK...they play the Osbournes. They've created an online, interactive Osbournes game that models itself after the popular "The Sims" game. It's really funny and cool...you can make Ozzy perform and curse, make everyone fight. The pets even poop on command! Check this out for a good laugh...it's f-cking hilarious. "SHARON!!!"
Brian | Wednesday, September 25 2002 | New Quarashi BBS |
The new Quarashi BBS is up and running at it's new home here. Make sure to register as your old screennames and psswords won't work. You can however create a new account and use your old name if it is still available.
The board is moderated by Markus aka TheMaestro and myself aka SmartyB. Hope to see you there.
Brian | Friday, September 20 2002 | Quarashi on MTV |
Quarashi has been chosen as the Viewer's Chocie Video for MTV and will now make it into regular rotation. Great job to everyone that put some time into voting for the guys. Keep up the great work everyone.
Ricky | Thursday, September 19 2002 | The end of the QFN? |
I'm sorry to announce that the QFN will be closing its doors at CommunityZero.com. The reason is that the site, our main server and script provider, is now charging for membership. I understand that current members and new members do not want to pay to use the QFN, or to view documents and news posted. What I'm working on now is a stand-alone website where users can login, post their own page with information, links, etc. The new QFN will include a live BBS, chat, member profiles, and if possible member upload pages. If you have any suggestions, please send them to me at quarashi@djillusion.com.
Regards
-Ricky Founder of the Quarashi Fan Network
Ricky | Friday, September 6 2002 | Home Sweet Home |
They're back! Here's a message from Omar that he posted on the official Q BBS.
"Hey gang whaaaat's happening? Well we are back home after well recived tour through a good part of the world. Japan was incredible and Australia was realy good. Two packed shows in Sidney and Mellbourne. Cold as shit and raining but well worth the trip. We also did a five song performans on live TV in Aussie land that was not without it's problems. First the computer skipped a few seconds in the intro and we had to rush the stage and in Malone lives the wireless mic unit caught on fire and the mics died and boy did we look stupid. But in Stick'em up we got new mics and made up for lost confidence by trashing the stage which made the crowd happy. The trip home was murder. 22 hours of flying and we lived the 24th of august twice, which was weird. But we are home and on the 12th of September we have a show here in Iceland which I hope will go well. See some of you later." - Omar "Swarez"

Ricky | Wednesday, August 28 2002 | Quarashi back in Iceland |

Ricky | Monday, August 26 2002 | CD-ROM to include "Mr. Jinx" music video! |
Ok, if you won the CD-ROM from the last contest, you will also get the newly-added "Mr. Jinx" video alongside "Stick 'Em Up" both "Mr. Jinx" and "Stick 'em Up" live, TRUSTcompany, Riddlin' Kids, and more! If you cant wait or didnt win, head over to the good people at Urban Chaos Videos (www.ucv.com) to download the vid!
Ricky | Monday, August 26 2002 | Run Hossi Run! |
Well, I just saw the "Mr. Jinx" video. WOW...That was awesome. It's obviously inspired by "Run Lola Run," the german indie flick that shows the protagonist going through the same day, but how each decision affects her differently. DEFINITELY RENT THAT. Quarashi, I love you guys even more for picking that movie to base the video on!!!!
MaryAnn | Sunday, August 25 2002 | Quarashi Newsletter from the Maestro |
Quarashi will be performing on September 12th in Reykjavik at Laugardalshöll. XXX Rottweiler and DJ Touché of The Wiseguys will also be appearing. More information can be found on this microsite (in Icelandic only).
Brian | Thursday, August 22 2002 | Hello all |
Sorry for the late reply. Hello to everyone. I'm Brian, otherwise known as SmartyB, and I'll help out as much as I can. If anyone has an idea but doesn't have the time to implement it, drop me a message and I should be able to do it. Let's make this site kick ass.
Ricky | Thursday, August 22 2002 | Welcome aboard |
Thanks to Mary Ann for joining me, Eric, and Brian on the staff here at SITG. Her "Straight Outta Iceland" site was awesome and had great news and things that often my site lacked. Now that we can work together, I believe we can all worry less about keeping up with updates. Thanks again and glad to have you hear with us.
