One Love Manchester

Whether you like it or not. We live in a pretty unsafe, untrusting world.

Can we potentially make the future brighter? I would like to say yes, but that change would not only involve a big community but a big world attitude change.

But we have to start somewhere right? I’m very happy Ariana Grande got up on stage and performed. She brought other people along too like Justin Beiber, Miley Cyrus, Pharrell, Coldplay… Big influencers in the music community.

Big influencers in the world community such as world peace or social justice… not entirely sure about that. The fact of the matter is, these entertainers stood up for something that is much bigger than selling tickets.

I hope the world truly starts looking around at each other and realizing that these matters happen every day. Big and small. Dramatic and things that don’t get covered on social media. If we don’t stand together and stop it, it will continue.

So thank you to all the security guards, production crew, the fans and the performers for coming together to create something for those who have lost something. Faith and trust.

Pray for Manchester

It is so sad. So, so sad what happened at Ariana Grande’s show this past week in Manchester. I don’t blame her for wanting to cancel her next couple of shows. If it was me, I would cancel all the shows.

There are a lot of people who work for  her. You not only put the artist at risk performing the show, but the crew and the fans. Unfortuately, the fans got the worst of it. 

As a concert goer, I can’t imagine what it was like to be at the show when the bomb went off. If I was working it, I wouldn’t know what to do either.With over 20 people dead and over 50 people injured, this is a tradegy.

I know the music industry is working hard to protect concert goers and the crew all around the world. But if this continues, soon it will not be safe for anyone to go to a show. We’ve had to many instances like this including Paris.

My thoughts are with those who not only lost loved ones but the concert goers that survived and lived to tell the tale. I hope the city of Manchester can make a recovery and  come together as a community to protect eachother.
