Lots of protest-oriented music today. From folk-ish to ska to reggae to punk to... Could we just be nice to each other for peace sake?!
OK, I am officially messed up about all the stupid, counter-productive, destructive, crap going on all over the world these days. Most especially to the south of us here in Canada right now. But also in Syria, Spain, France, N. Korea, Saudi Arabia, Middle East, right here in Canada ... and on and on and on ... It seems the Golden Rule is lost to the evil forces of political power, xenophobia, bipolar media, and Twitter. Coexist! "Give Peace A Chance".
We will attempt to not hit the RANT button too hard, and just let the music talk. Best of luck on that...
Hit us up on the Interactive Thingy (over there ==>). We'd love to hear from you!
