They look like they are having a lot of fun...and breaking through some culture barriers. They don't make good guitar smashers though - probably because they understand the value of a dollar.
Good for them and thanks lindy. paula

This is part of a BBC awareness raising project to do with pensioners rights and prejudice etc. Single was released today and proceeds go to a charity called Age Concern which is the main fundraiser to help older people in the UK. It is a much underdiscussed issue here, with many very isolated old people, and poor resources. Fun idea, with a serious aim. The pensioners actually went to Abbey Road to record!

What a wonderful idea.
Would it be really bad taste to suggest that we could do something similar to raise PD awareness and money for research. The Zimmers are getting so much press in the UK as did the Womans Institute via their nude calender a couple of years ago. We could be "The Neuro Singers" (sounds a bit soft) or "The Parkies" (much more to the point) and as most of us were born in the Baby Boom we have plenty of suitable material: Hippy Hippy Shake Shaking all over Shake Rattle and Roll Steff could mix the music, just the small matter then of getting together, recording, manufacture of CD's and distribution lol. Does anyone know Graham Norton personally or maybe David Letterman (is that spelt correctly?). Chris |

The idea is progressing nicely.
To optimise publicity (or maximise exposure!) we could sing in the nude ....... Two good ideas that both worked, combined. Chris |
