Brandon Jones (IVM Founder/Owner) Visits the White House and Offers Advice to Trump and his Team

***April Fool’s Joke***

Brandon Jones otherwise known as the man with a plan, aka Nanny Doe, aka Founder and Owner of IVM, visited the White House over the weekend (see pic) to plan out how best to keep Faith based rock n’ roll aka Christian Music, alive and well into the next decade by incorporating his “Dominate” approach (inspired by the fine folks at Tooth & Nail Records in their ‘Dominate 98’ ad slogan) into the America First Agenda. Meeting with Trump and Musk, he felt that his lifelong passions could reverberate into Washington DC politics. While Brandon refuses to acknowledge whom or what he voted for this last election cycle, he feels as though his life experiences could lead to a new introduction into indie, punk, hardcore, metal, and rock music (with a dash of revivalist ska) for a whole new generation of music fan aching for music of substance and Faith. A revival is at hand and those words written thousands of years ago in our Bible still ring true to this day. “Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness” James 3: 17-18.

Shaking hands with Mr. Musk, and Mr. Trump seemed surreal, but Brandon was in his zone ready to unleash one last lyric on his way out. Quoting “Just a Man” by The O.C. Supertones off their “Hi Fi Revival” album while doing some super cringe old man skankin’,

I’m not a punk, I’m not a rocker, or a rude boy
Republican or Democrat, white or black, none of that

That’s not what I am
I’m not a Jew, I’m not a Goy, or an American
Can’t even call myself my own, no, I’m not a Supertone
That’s not what I am

I’m just a man, God’s own reflection
I’m just a man, that’s what I am
I’m just a man, His son by adoption
I’m just a man, that’s what I am

While seemingly embarrassing himself in front of the Press Pool of the elite legacy media as well as spinoffs, streaming channels, and everything in between including networks such as CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, NBC, ABC, CBS, PBS, Disney Channel, MTV, VH1, Comedy Central, The Smithsonian Channel, Bravo, Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Netflix, Univision, Telemundo, ESPN, HGTV, TBN, Great American Family, Hallmark Channel, Home Shopping Network, The Watching Paint Dry Channel, and even the remnants of Cartoon Network, MTV 120 Minutes Show, TRL, as well as the President and his compadre, Mr. Musk, he stood firm in his convictions. His meeting was abruptly cut short, and he was quickly escorted out of the room, then thrown outside the gates onto the D.C. sidewalks where Ian with Dischord Records came to his timely rescue. He just reported back that it was the trip of a lifetime and although he didn’t score a Tesla S or get to pass on his signed copy of the “Skamania 98” Tour Poster and Placard that he scored from Reese Roper (Five Iron Frenzy) & Joe Yerke (The Insyderz) to the President, he was confident enough in his abilities to sway minds by dominating (he says thanks Brandon Ebel, his hero and T&N founder). Although I heard Melania accepted the Skamania 98′ merch on her husband’s behalf. While it was an eventful trip by any standard, he is now facing the ramifications of his decisions to even visit the White House and members of the underground indie media and punk gatekeepers swiftly came out to chastise Mr. Jones for his actions, threatening a devastating boycott of the glorified hobby that is IVM. I also heard Reese Roper & Joe Yerke aren’t returning calls and their assistants have told him to lose their numbers. So, on behalf of Brandon and the IVM team I was given explicit instructions to post this in his place through his account here and was told to let you know NOT to travel back to 2025 to rescue him…nvm that was a movie, my bad. I was told that if he goes missing and you don’t hear from him until April 2nd, that he is ok but hiding out in an undisclosed bunker he had built under a certain arcade room. Maybe I just said too much? Sorry Brandon, “I’m never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down”. – Loyd Harp on behalf of Brandon Jones for Indie Vision Music.
