A non-marketing post
I have nothing to sell you.
Alright, well, that's a load of chit since I'm a performer and therefore I'm always selling myself out to anyone who will listen, but for this post, I'm putting that on hold. Yes, there are shows coming up. Yes, there is a contest going on. Yes, we're busier than ever with both bands, but tonight isn't about that.
Most of you know I'm the father of a positively amazing toddler. Tonight, we decided we would try to expand his knowledge by watching The Safe Side's video titled "Stranger Safety". This film was put together by John Walsh (America's Most Wanted) and Julie Clark (Little Einsteins). It's intended to teach children of dangerous situations and how to react to them. The film includes safety tips, scenarios and a host called the Safe Side Super Chick.
My son enjoyed it so much, we watched it twice.
What was astounding was not that he found it entertaining. He found it important. At a toddler's age, to differentiate between a Transformer or Lightning McQueen or Dora the Explorer to something that means a great deal outside of simple entertainment on a screen, I found that positively breathtaking.
I give all the credit to his mom. ;)
Stay safe out there. Plenty more to discuss soon...
One Love!
