Walk = Action = Change

Who gets kicked out of a Hanson concert? Well, I didn’t know it was possible till the concert on Wednesday.

The path, the road and the journey for Hanson has been an admirable and remarkable experience for the brothers, and I’m not just saying that because I’m completely and utterly enthralled with their music. Alas, I might be a little a bit biased but their effort is undeniable.

After their world-wide sweep in 1997, progressing as artists became extremely difficult because of the record company control. So after producing their 2nd album, Hanson invested in their talent, in their ability and in blind faith started their own record company producing their 3rd album. The upward struggle rang through in every song they produced on “Underneath,” which only came to audience ears after writing over 84 songs for this record that had been shot down by the Tyrant.

Then Hanson went to South Africa and spent time with women and children suffering from HIV and became to determined to make a difference – a contribution to the fight with any and all means necessary including 99c from itunes donated. Shoes donated. Walking one mile in every city during a tour to motivate people from all over the nation to make a difference! This is an extremely passionate subject for the band, and I am continued to be in awe of my favorite band. For them it’s always been about the music. Music changing lives. Music that speaks to people. Music that makes a difference.

So, Hanson’s talking about their journey and their fight to make a difference. It’s quiet in the small venue, and someone screams out, “EFFING PLAY MMMBOP.”

Calmly Taylor replies, “Security can you please escort him out.”

Issac says, “Please get your money back.”

Sure enough this guy walks out escorted by security, and Taylor continues to discuss the prevention of small coffins being built in Africa.

C’mon kid – would you make a joke at a funeral?

Truly, it was ridiculous.

Yes, Hanson did play Mmmbop and they were fantastic! The whole concert was fantastic, and for the finale they sang a complicated three part harmony at the end perfectly!!!!!!! Oh, they are so amazing in all respects.

Check out their impressive and generous fight for such an important cause. Take The Walk
