Music & Politics

This is a complete personal take in the subject, the blog title should probably be rephrased as "me (or the professional musician part of me) and politics. On the other hand, corruption is not politics, it's a perversion and an abuse than some people in the political power sphere are committing/have allegedly committed. So maybe my two words title should be renamed on the other side as well. 

Jokes aside, what is going on at the moment in Spain is so absurd, so embarrassing, and makes me feel so impotent, that I couldn't avoid voicing myself out there, shouting through the typed silence of cyberspace. AKA twitting, and in this case blogging. 

I always intended to keep this site and the linked twitter account, as an "online-portfolio" and therefore not interfering with other aspects of my private life. But the moment Spain is living now is so critical, that not voicing myself, not expressing my indignation, seemed to be a passive nod to the situation. And that is just beyond me. Things have to change drastically and immediately in Spain. We must do something. We owe it to ourselves. Continuing using the media means, this is an online Petition
asking the main PP (people's party- what an euphemism!) leaders to resign. Goal is a million signatures, as of the moment I'm writing 752,057 have already done it.


We must do something. 


This is the least I can do.
