Queen Centraal (deel 16): We Still Love You..

quote:

Brian and Kerry are due to play the San Remo festival on Wednesday evening (15 Feb].

This is home page. To get to the Festival site click on the first biutton on the left for RAI1.

This is the official channel and you can watch all the TV shows. Usually the Sanremo Festival starts at 8.30 pm CET so it's 7.30 in the UK.

It is likely that Brian and Kerry will go on stage around 10.30 pm CET ... this is only a very rough guide of time.

The direct link to RAI 1 http://www.rai.tv/dl/RaiT(...)5.html?channel=Rai+1
but it's a bit more complicated because to access from the UK you have to download this free programme then and write "italy" : http://hidemyass.com/proxy/ {probably not worth the bother if the first link is working well.

A new beginning - a project close to the heart.

Kerry and I did a photo shoot last week [Thu 8 Feb] for the launch of a new project.

Virginia McKenna's Born Free Foundation is mounting a massive initiative to try to save the Lion in South Africa.

It sounds impossible, but it seems there is a real possibility that in just a few years there will be no more lions in the World.

There has been a growing awareness over the last few years, largely brought about by Born Free, that it is no longer cool to kill these wonderful creatures (of course it really never was - Ernest Hemingway has a lot to answer for, in my opinion) - it is OK to go on a shoot, but only if it is a camera shoot.

But Lions and other wild African animals are STILL being poached, and still being killed by rich, brainless people. A lot of these people come from Britain too. They are part of that old-style remnant of knuckleheadedness which needs to assert its power by killing defenceless animals and putting the heads of these wonderful creatures on their walls as trophies.

I'm afraid it's same mentality as the fox-hunters, the deer-stalkers, the badger-baiters, etc … who exhibit a depraved side of humanity that needs to be expunged. But at the moment many of these barbarians have the backing of our government - it's a grim time for animals indeed.

So here we go … in what may be a last-ditch attempt to turn things around in South Africa. There will be more details announced soon, but our contribution is an entirely new recording of the song BORN FREE, which I've arranged and produced for Kerry's magnificent vocal talents. It's set for release later in the year.

This is the beginning - a statement of intent - a photo-call in a London Hotel with Will Travers and executives of BORN FREE, and one of the Lion sculptures which will soon be gracing the streets of Cape Town. Hopefully so will we ! This project may take us on a long journey in many ways.

These are my informal 3-D shots of the occasion. I was holding them back, in deference to the official photo release, but it seems that photographs are already out there. I'm excited about the new BORN FREE track … it's pretty monumental … it's so tempting to reveal all. But we have San Remo to pour our passion into first. That's very exciting too.

Onwards !

I've have had many messages from folks who would like us to be at the Jubilee show, and I'd like to say thanks to you all, folks, for the support. The truth is that, quite simply, we haven't been asked to be part of this 60th celebration. But that is fine - we don't have a right to expect anything. We gave our all to the 50th (and 'my tower' is still intact !) - so now, it is somebody else's turn. There are a lot of great artists in Britain who deserve a shot ! We wish them all well. I'm sure it will be a great show.

We have a couple of different surprises coming up later in the year, so we will be busy, and all is good.

All the very best !

Hold your horses.

Voor hetzelfde geld delen ze gewoon een award uit en treden ze niet op.
