Viele Menschen sind in Eile und hetzen durch ihren Alltag. Inmitten dieser Menschen ein Obdachloser, an dem alle vorbei laufen, ganz normal eben. Oder etwa nicht?

// Video-Statement und Hintergründe zu diesem Clip:
http://youtu.be/Rfc4Sxx84fw

"Wir konnten gar nicht fassen, wie viel sich von Euch in den letzten Tagen mit der Thematik unseres Kurzclips auseinandergesetzt haben. Es gab einen tollen Austausch mit sehr viel Lob, aber auch kritischen Stimmen, die einen besonders wunden Punkt treffen:

Im Mai diesen Jahres haben wir genau diese Aktion mit mehr Liedern OHNE Kamera durchgeführt. Wir fanden die Aussage dieser Aktion so gut, dass wir uns entschlossen haben, daraus einen Clip zu machen, der andere anregen soll, Ähnliches zu tun.
Vor dem Filmdreh haben wir uns folgende Frage gestellt: Darf man einfach einen Menschen in Not filmen und ins Netz stellen, ohne ihn zu fragen und seine Geschichte zu kennen? Unsere Antwort ist hier ganz klar nein, weshalb wir einen Schauspieler um Hilfe und Rat gebeten haben, diese Rolle zu übernehmen.

Bitte schaut Euch dieses Video-Statement an, dort erklären wir unsere Beweggründe detaillierter. Wenn wir jemanden verletzt oder enttäuscht haben, so tut es uns sehr leid. Das war natürlich nicht unsere Absicht, sondern das Ganze stellt einen symbolischen Denkanstoß dar, der die Menschen nochmal in sich gehen lassen soll.

Wir meinen es mit unserem Verein absolut ernst und sammeln seit einigen Wochen aktiv Spenden für kommende Aktionen. Dabei sollen Projekte, Vereine und hilfsbedürftige Personen direkt und nachhaltig unterstützt werden.

Einige Kommentare gehen leider auch unter die Gürtellinie, was sehr verletzend und demotivierend für uns ist. Wir bleiben trotzdem am Ball, weil wir an die Sache glauben."

English Version:

We could not believe how much of you have analyzed this video in the last view days. There was a lot of praise, but also a lot of critical voices making a particular sore point.

In May of this year, we performed like this with more songs and WITHOUT a camera. We liked the massage of what we were doing so we decided to turn it into a video in order to encourage others to possibly do the same.

Before filming we asked ourselves the following question: Can we simply film a person in distress and put it up on the internet, without asking them or knowing their history? Our answer is quite clearly no, which is why we have hired an actor to take on this role.

Please look at our video statement, where we explain our rationale in more detail. If we have hurt or disappointed anyone, we are very sorry. Of course that was not our intention.

We are very serious about our non profit organisation and we have been collecting for some weeks now. Please donate for future actions...

Seven Ages of Rock -White Light, White Heat, Art Rock part2



Published on Dec 30, 2012
The story of how artistic and conceptual expression permeated rock. From the pop-art multi-media experiments of Andy Warhol and the Velvet Underground to the sinister gentility of Peter Gabriel's Genesis, White Light, White Heat traces how rock became a vehicle for artistic ideas and theatrical performance. We follow Pink Floyd from their beginnings with the fated art school genius of Syd Barrett through to the global success of 'Dark Side of the Moon' to the ultimate rock theatre show, 'The Wall'. Along the way, the film explores the retro-futurism of Roxy Music and the protean world of David Bowie.

Seven Ages of Rock was a BBC Two series, co-produced by BBC Worldwide and VH1 Classic in 2007 about the history of rock music. I don't own any rights to the video enjoy!!!!!!!!!

Seven ages of rock -Never Say Die, Heavy Metal, part 4



Published on Sep 5, 2013
The story of the longest surviving and certainly the loudest genre of rock, heavy metal. With no sign of disappearing, metal has been the most controversial and misunderstood of all rock genres. Emerging at the tail end of the hippy dream from the rust belt of industrial England, heavy metal would go on to secure the most loyal fan base of all. With Black Sabbath as the undisputed Godfathers, we follow their highs and lows, and, along the journey, meet Deep Purple, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Metallica.

Neuroscientists Find that Playing an Instrument Is a Unique Workout for the Brain (Via laughing squid)


In this animated Ted-Ed lesson by educator Anita Collins, neuroscientists have found that playing an instrument is a unique workout for the brain as it activates numerous areas of the brain at the same time, a phenomenon that is not found in other activities.
When you listen to music, multiple areas of your brain become engaged and active. But when you actually play an instrument, that activity becomes more like a full-body brain workout. What’s going on? Anita Collins explains the fireworks that go off in musicians’ brains when they play, and examines some of the long-term positive effects of this mental workout.

Silvertone Amp in Case


I just saw one of these old silver-tones at Sam Ash (Torrance, California) for around $700. I did a little research and it turns out that if you are really lucky you can find one on ebay for around $400. It's not really my style, but I still think its pretty cool. 


I found more information about them at http://uniqueguitar.blogspot.com Check it out:


Model 1448





The final Silvertone amplifiers that were very popular in the 1960 decade were theamp-in-a-case models.

Silvertone offered two models in the 1960’s;  four if you considered the value of the guitar that came with it.

From 1962 to 1965 Silvertone offered models 1448 and 1457. Both were made by Danelectro.

The wooden guitar cases came with a section of gray grill cloth which hid a tiny 3 watt tube amplifier with a five inch speaker. The speaker frame was designed to prevent damage to the speaker.

The model 1448 amp had a rectifier tube, a preamp tube and a 6V6 power tube. There was one volume control. The player would remove the guitar and stand the amp on its bottom side with the case opened to hold it upright.

There were some differences in the 1448 and 1457 models. The 1448 came with a single pickup Danelectro masonite guitar and only a volume control on the amp.

The 1457 model contained a twin pickup Dano guitar, a volume and tone control, tremolo knobs, cord, footswitch and a 45 rpm ‘how to play the guitar’ record.

1457
The 1448 sold for $68 USD while the 1457 sold for $100 USD.

Prior to the introduction of the 1457, the model was designated the 1449. The 1449 was first made available in 1963 and replaced by the 1457, which was essentially the same amplifier and guitar.

The 1448 sold from 1962 to 1965 and the 1457 sold from 1964 to 1966 when both were replaced by the model 1451.

1451
The Silvertone model 1451 came with a giant six inch speaker attached to a three tube (rectifier, power and preamp) and a single volume control. The guitar was made of wood instead of masonite on a pine frame. The neck and headstock were still the same. This baby pushed 5 watts of power.

1452


The Silvertone/Danelectro model 1452 came with an 8 inch speaker, 5 watts of power, 4 tubes and a Danelectro solid wood guitar with two lipstick pickups and a tremolo bar. The 4 amp controls supported volume, tone and speed and depth for the tremolo.

Jess Lewis ft. Alex Hutchings - Room 335



Jamtrackcentral.com 


Uploaded on Feb 6, 2012
The uber talented Jess lewis strikes again with another astounding rendition of a classic guitar tune. This time it's Larry Carlton's epic 'Room 335' and includes special guest Alex Hutchings filling in with an amazing improvisation over the keyboard solo from the original track.
This 17 year old Guitar Vixen wrestles this charming yet complex tune to the ground and then shakes the dust off and adds her own polish.

Oh and if you think Jess is up there with the female greats (and male of course!), please say so. We think she is! SPREAD THE WORD.
