Our pal Dave Lippman, who played at a Chicago anti-war concert last year, sent us a link to this awesome anti-war music/spoken word video by Chris Chandler and pals. Feeling blue because you can't make it to Washington DC for this weekend's upcoming protests? (I think this ensemble is playing in DC at the protest rally this weekend.) Maybe this will take the edge off a bit. Check out the video link at www.chrisvids.org

Chandler writes: ""There's Something in the Air/But It's Not on the Airwaves" is a political spoken word piece about the media’s lack of coverage on the peace and global justice movement. The piece also includes excerpts of the music that was widely known during the 60's war protest era."

"Sarah Rolan of Akron, Ohio is cast in the video and plays a part where she places a folded U.S. flag on the grave of a soldier killed in action. On Tuesday, shortly before we taped the scene, Sarah received news that her close friend, U.S. Marine Lance Corporal Daniel "Nate" Deyarmin, was killed in action on Monday. So I'm sure you can imagine, it is very intense."
