“Green” Videos and Guitars
March 1st, 2008
Hey Folks ...
Just wanted to talk about the "Green"- ness of my new video Big Yellow Machines. It was filmed at The Foster Memorial Concert Series in Leaskdale Ontario. The Foster Memorial building uses no power for their concerts. As you could hear, if you watched the video, the acoustics at this particular venue are out of this world! So the only power that was used to make that video (as well as Brace Yourself) was the camera that filmed it and this ol' computer of mine, which makes it a more environmentally friendly video than most.
Now for the "Green" guitars ... I just bought a new acoustic guitar made by Art & Lutherie (Godin). It, believe it or not, is a "green" guitar. It was made in a small town in Quebec using 95% Canadian wood. The thing that makes it so enviro is fact that Art & Lutherie DO NOT CUT DOWN TREES to make their guitars, they use only trees that have already fallen on their own .... how COOL is THAT??!!
Let me know what you think of the new videos!
Peace, Love and Cleaner Air,
