Animals Are Dying

Animals Are Dying.

I wrote and sang and played on guitar the song Animals Are Dying during the 2nd or so week of April 2009 after spending around 10 days with Lincoln Hawk in Long Beach, California USA.

I wrote this song for the Fur Protesters who march and shout and chant and yell with signs in front of a fur shop in Portland, Oregon USA, just blocks from my apartment.

Months later, one of those guys allegedly sets himself on fire in protest, to get publicity towards the awareness that animals are skinned alive.

Space Man & Diaper Boy.

The Greyhound bus delivered me (from Portland, Oregon, to Long Beach, California, United States) to the hands of my friend Lincoln Hawk for ten days (in April 2009) of adventure where we even made the hit short-film and musical number "Space Man & Diaper Boy" which stars Lincoln Hawk as the Space Man and stars me as the disturbed college room-mate in the diaper, thus my name as the Diaper Boy.

I later wrote and performed on my guitar (back in PDX) my hit single "Animals Are Dying" in memory of the protest against animal cruelty.

This was in April 2009.

Parts of this may have been at the end of March, as well.
