This week on Radio Free London for March 5th


A benefit for Keeping Kids Warm - Helping Homeless Teens One Stitch At A Time on Mar. 3rd!

Details:

Here is how this one played out. I was asked by one of the bands on Friday whether I could record them at the Eastside Bar & Grill on Saturday afternoon, Mar. 3rd. They mentioned it was a benefit to raise money to clothe homeless youth so I jumped at the opportunity. I've recorded at the Eastside B&G before and the sound person, Mike Woroniuk, does a great job there.

It turned out that the benefit was about more than clothing homeless youth but also about youth mental heath, youth suicide and bullying as well. As a partially sight child going through a 'normal' school system, I know what it's like to be bullied by my peers. I was one of the lucky ones, with a loving family a few loyal friends to watch out for me. So, this event became personal for me and I stayed up all night after I got home to get it ready for this week's radio show.

First we'll hear a talk from Mike Neuts, who's 10 year old son, Miles, was found hanging from a coat hook in a washroom at his elementary school and died a few days later. He now runs an organization called Make Children Better Now and travels the country to talk in schools about bullying and its ramifications.

Musical performances by:

If I have time, I'll play some previous music from two of my friends in Hunger City.
