World Culture Festival

[CopperSpyder]

Starts this Friday Sept. 29th https://wcf.artofliving.org/ It will be on Utube live Friday starting at about 7pm EST if you can't make it in person. I will be there with my guitar playing with Micki Free, Santana, Guitaro5000, Marty Music and 1000 other guitar plays on stage. Let me also add a schedule of events for this Festival. If you always want to try food from other countrys or see and experience their culture this will be a great time to do it. https://www.artofliving.org/us-en/2023-world-culture-festival-final-programming-update This is a list of events.

Thought I would share with you what I had been working on for sometime now. I have been doing some zoom lessons as a teacher with some beginner guitar players (as I learn to). Getting ready to the WCF above I have been having fun and I have meet a lot of nice people much like this group (SpyderLovers) here (note the class was for the song We Are One that we will play at WCF). Below is the last two items of the lesson outline I had for them when doing zoom. I would play the video bellow at the end to show an example of what music can do, by tell them what effect it had on me. Now its there turn to do the same. Watch the video bellow if you like but ours on the 29th will be good too.

8. Have Fun, Practice, Practice, Practice!
9. Time permitting I will talk about the different versions of We Are One out there; Pit bull World Cup, Australia National Sing Along, Disney Lion King 2, Childrens One Voice Children’s Choir. Here is the one I personally like the best (until we do ours of course) Back in 2019 when I first saw this video I thought WOW I wanted what they were singing (tolerance and acceptance of others). I was Inspired because I was not alone with this thought. Now it's our turn to step-up and sing it our way. Play it our way (1000 Guitars 350,000 people watching in person, WIN = WoW Inspire Now) Thank You, Micki Free. (Share video on my pc with class time permitting) One World, We Are One (Native American) "click:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHhbeRJudY4&t=2s

Well we did our part of the World Culture Festival last night on the Washington Mall. It was broad cast live on U-tube Live. We played All you need is Love, and ended with We Are One! When we stated playing, we are one, we could see the cell phone lights waving in the air for a mile; it was awesome for us on the stage to see the music connect. The show continues tonight live on the Washington Mall DC and on U-tube Live.
