Best Page of The Week-1000 Musicians “Learn To Fly”
When Pages first went live it completely changed our blogging experience here. Who had never wished for a certain story to become a topic here? Then Charles kinda floated this idea about a favorite Pages kinda entry. That was a good idea, but it was a new feature and nobody picked up on the idea. So here is my contribution written Friday evening on a scheduled publication for Sunday morning.
This week I happened across a Page that really cheered me up. After a series of bad news days, “1000 Musicians” was brought to my attention by William in his Page. Days later this thing is everywhere. Heh. What got me here is getting cheered up. Well, it’s about how and why. What a project to pull together? 1000 musicians, sound gear, photographers, a good drone pilot, cameras, good light and an impeccable cover of Learn To Fly. Maybe it’s just me but the video of all those people doing this as shout out to a band to come to their home and play almost teared me up.
The video restored a little faith in my fellow human beings, especially that generation just beginning to have it’s day. The inheritors of the inventions, the glories and the foibles of the boomers.
Guess what… The Foo Fighters are going.
