Comment by Brad Rogers on April 22, 2008 at 2:29am: Hey Rick, sounds very cool. I'm down in El Cerrito, not too far away. Please keep me posted. I'd like to try and make it up. I don't have a car, but I can prob. get somebody else to go or just rent a car. In the meantime I am donating a song of mine as a gift to anyone and everyone for Earth Day. This particular tune is from my latest band called FLitCH. It is an instrumental rock band/project out of the SF bay area CA. The song is appropriately called "Bridging The Gap". There is an underlying theme all the way through that our world needs some healing and some patching up pretty badly, and it touches base on the fact that our govt. needs serious reform, and that is obviously all connected to the damaged state of the Earth. I try and tell stories through the music itself without words, however for this one there are some samples I threw in (legally), to help emphasize the message. One sample at the end is of Mr. Ted Glick speaking the truth at a C.C.C. conference about the atrocious behavior and suppression of scientific evidence, as well as overall blatant disregard for our collective home done by the Bush regime... Mr. Glick gave me his personal permission and stamp of approval to use the sample of him speaking within the song. The recording is very good quality...the style is kind of in the vein of Critters Buggin, Mercury Rev, Mogwai, STS9.... All you have to do is go to my page here and get it. It is available for free download right now! The URL to my page is below. Happy almost Earth Day! (well I guess it already is for some....almost over here). Anyway this is a gift from me to anyone and everyone. Hope you enjoy! Feel free to pass it around!
