LIVE PEACE!

What have you to say FOR PEACE!?!

About Me


Haven't we had enough of violence, war, killing?! Hundreds of millions of innocent lives sacrificed. For what?! An ideology? Corporate market share? Natural resources? I may live in a country that's despised by the world BUT I AM NOT MY GOVERNMENT! And I am not part of any religious ideology or corporate bottom line. I live simply, eat low on the food chain, use resources modestly, and offer my voice, my song for the benefit of the hundreds of millions who's voices will never be heard, who may be snuffed out before they even have a chance because of hollow, gluttonous and selfish interests.
The Live Peace & Earth Safe myspace was created as a follow-up to the website livepeaceandearthsafe.com where we're collecting music voices from all over the world (currently waiting on my son to redesign...yo, J...are we almost done yet?!). It is a continually growing project where musicians are posting their anti-war/anti-violence songs. The myspace was created to encourage dialogue among artists and non-artists alike so go ahead...speak your piece for peace!
