I came across the following video on the website for the great band Venice. Venice webmaster Matt Levitz is an acquaintance of mine, and works tirelessly on many levels doing great things for the band, and in the meantime has a regular fulltime job as a DVD producer. He produced the following video to help promote the annual arts education benefit featuring for the 5th year in a row, Jackson Browne and Venice, plus many special guests. The benefit is presented by For The Arts, and Artists for the Arts Foundation.

Watch this video for a good example of why I have been a lifelong fan of music. Through music, we are indeed all connected, and with that connection, we can do great things.

This video is a great snapshot of legends like Jackson, David Crosby, and others, using their musical gifts to help inspire the next generation. Musically, these guys are paying it forward, without a doubt. I’m inspired watching this video, and inspired by the talents that are displayed by the young adult musicians in this video. Hopefully you will find inspiration with this, as well…
