Rebels without a cause, or a compelling argument.

That photo of Xavier in an earlier post was in fact his nephew Jobim and was taken a year ago around the time his band "FUNESTO" was breaking up. The name means 'evil' and Jobim named the group after the phrase 'See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil' which, he says, describes someone who doesn’t want to be involved in any given situation. Which is exactly what Jobim and his two cousins had in mind when they formed this musical trio. By their mid-twenties the sum of their combined education was less than a high school diploma and riding the coat-tails of their uncle Xavier's success they somehow confused his activism with far left ideology and came together to form a toxic blend of anger and stupidity. Self proclaimed passivists and disciples of Che Guavara every song they wrote sounded like their first and only success; an ode to communism in the style of a national anthem.
