The Aliran Singers are gearing up to perform at a celebratory dinner in Penang on Saturday, 24 October 2009. The singers are coming together again after a two-year break to sing about the current political situation, which should be a whole lot of fun. The special guest artiste for the evening is singer Pete Teo, the producer of the popular 15Malaysia video-clips released recently.

For more information, phone Aliran at 04-658 5251 during office hours from Tuesdays to Saturdays.

Dear Anil

I misquoted Victor Jara.
He actually said that the guitar is a gun
and the song is the bullet. I have two guns at home
and many of Brother Bob Marley’s bullets. 🙂

Yes, the world would be a much kinder place
with more musicians, artists and poets!

Dear Anil

Even if you can’t sing, you can write the songs!

P.S. Should add more names to my initial list of musicians who changed the world … Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, Zimbabwean Thomas Mapfumo, the South African “white zulu”, anti-apartheid activist Johnny Clegg. Not forgetting the Chilean Victor Jara (tragic victim of Pinochet’s regime) who said that the guitar is a machine gun ……

Whoa Anil, are you among the Aliran Singers?

Bravo!

Music can inspire people and change the world.

Remember John Lennon and Bob Marley?
