Please see THE COVE and sign the petition!
August 15, 2009
I just saw the movie ‘The Cove’ and I cannot tell you how important it is for you to see it, ASAP. It’s in the theaters now; this is that most crucial time that all movie makers face, where the number of people who attend a film in the first week or two is the basis on which theater owners decide whether to pull a movie or keep it in the theater for an extended run. It’s an amazing film, one that exposes a dark and cruel operation which involves the illegal slaughter of innocent dolphins by the thousands, all for the profit of a few. This practice is so very wrong; and it needs to be stopped. The documentary is wonderfully done, the majority of it plays like a suspense spy thriller in the tradition of “Mission Impossible;” while it does contain some disturbing footage, the latter is actually quite a small (but necessary) portion of the movie. Please consider going out to the theater to catch ‘The Cove’, (winner of the Sundance Film Festival’s 2009 Audience Award for best U.S. Documentary!) in the next few days if you can, to help bring those attendance numbers up and keep this film in the theaters. Like ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ and other films like it, ‘The Cove’ contains a message that you need to hear. I guarantee you will be moved. Then, tell all your friends, family and acquaintances to see it too! Scroll down to find the link to sign the petition.

I just happened across your blog - and was convinced by your words (and the trailer) to see this movie - I took 4 friends. We have not been the same since. This is the most important film I’ve seen this year.
Thanks for sharing.

Just arrived home from your gig in Lisbon,majestic night at Aula Magna,thanks for it!
By the way, i’ll see the doc and share with other people.One of my biggest concerns is the way animals are treated by (un)humans.Here is another sad episode related with dolphins,this one from Feroe Island in Dennmark(never expected it from there!).Apparently this is what it takes to be a man on this part of the planet:

Hi,
I’m not sure if this site is still active, but I just found out that you were nice enough to link to my blog, and I just wanted to say that I’m flattered and I appreciate it. I really like your music, so it was nice (and strange!) to find a link to my drawings.
