The following is a statement by Mad Mike himself.  It was written to a fan who, in the name of his dedication to UR and the ?fight? said he was willing to kill himself.  While not all UR fans are so extreme, Mike?s words are relevant to anyone involved in any fight for a better way of life.

Do not put anything including UR ahead of your own personal well being.  UR indeed a victim of yourself. UR indeed over FANATICAL about all things concerning UR. UR indeed out of balance w/life and your surroundings!!! There is more to life than UR!! Read between the lines................................your version of UR in your mind is wrong. UR was not designed to be your leader. UR was designed to help you find who.........................UR.  Who are you man??? A mad fan ranting and raving about all things UR?? Ranting and raving about people you don't even know??? About a City (Detroit) in which you never lived in?? About concepts and theory's which you will never know?? It seems as though you are actually using UR to be SOMEBODY!!! This is wrong!! You know why?? Because UR already SOMEBODY!!! Quit using us as your crutch, your leaning pole, your reason for living and all your other excuses!!!

As I said before there is more to life than UR!! UR stuck in the 90's man!! People are moving on. Getting married, having children, taking care of their aging parents. What are you doing??? Still running around like a madman??? UR not making your transition......................sometimes in life you must move on. Even from things you love with all your heart (like a woman) if you don't UR stuck!! Ask yourself a question have you moved on??

Again I stress to you. UR was not designed to be your leader, your god or your anything!! UR belongs to no one.................................because UR simply asks you the question who RU??? Have you done all you could towards any of your aspirations?? Or have you let other discourage you??

Listen deeply & carefully to the words of "Transition" this is the true meaning of UR. It is simply.............."Inspiration"

"Find your strength in the sound and make your Transition"
