I do the Post-Election show to address the election and the continuation of systems that govern the United States of America. It is important to gather, sing, and hear from each other. The presidential election is an energetic ritual, where many things collide. So much hurt and joy...and you see the worst of our system on display and sometimes the bright light best of it. That bright light action usually comes from outside of the government. I want to address us as a communit...y. As neighbors, co-workers, people living side-by-side, breathing the same air. I want us to see this as an ongoing journey and not just a 4-year race. I want us to check in on our hearts and vibrate our intentions through song. I want us to get close to our real needs - that have no party affiliation and cannot comprehend left or right or weapons of war. We are people. We live on planet earth. We need shelter. We need water. We need air to breathe. We need food to eat. We like to be of use in a society, we are creative, and like the company of other humans. We are willing to learn. We are willing to teach. When we are born, we are so vulnerable and need to be held. This should be the foundation of how we occupy this planet.
