			Back to main episode bigfix makes big donation Stuart Wilson, the creative force behind the “brutal honesty” CD release party and label launch for bigfix, recently presented a cheque to the Canadian Music Therapy Trust Fund. The donation came from funds raised at the sold out event held at the Smiling Buddha in September. Wilson presented a $400 cheque to Music Therapist Carolyn Williams at the Bloor Street West center last week. The funds will be used to help the children from the Down Syndrome group L – R Donna (Music Therapy Assistant), Stuart (bigfix), Carolyn (Music Therapist), Melanie (Client), Ariel (Client)  While there, Wilson got to participate in a music therapy session. “It was great to visit the center and meet the children first hand…I got to see where the funds were going and how they’d be used,” says the sound engineer and impresario, “I enjoyed engaging with (clients) Ariel and Melanie as (therapists) Carolyn and Donna lead us through an eight-part, one hour Music Therapy session incorporating rhythm and song…each member playing their part with differing percussion and instrumentation…a fun time was had by all!” Wilson is working on developing his bigfix production studio but in the meantime, looks forward to developing a relationship with the Trust in the future.

the new ep brutal honesty speaks for itself (*see lyrics below)

trax @ www.bigfix-music.com

 

we could bang on about cyclical events & the poor state of the world during previous decades or maybe write love songs we don’t claim to be the big fix not even profound simply common sense we just think it’s high time people woke up & got a grip collective consciousness might get us there next single writing on the wall coming soon

 

mother earth

wilson/hooper © bigfix 2008

noah’s got a story that gives all the glory to father up in the sky

but what if he just got lucky & built his boat for money & god was nowhere in sight

 

& you preach do unto others & love all your brothers but you always have to be right

well nature is the leveler brings it all together mother doesn’t like when her children fight

 

survivors tell the story power seekers write the history the word until the end of time

but when the world is going crazy & mother nature’s angry does it help to have god on your side

 

voice of america

wilson/bgb © bigfix 2008

as the scenery gets alien we turn on our transistors

to relieve us of the things that dragged us down

 

the day has been a long one many miles have passed beneath me

i’m wondering if I’ll ever be the same again

 

we checked with the computer & restored the information

we found we were mistaken nothing’s changed at all

 

we respect those around us but feel in this situation

something quite dramatic has to happen right now

 

red seats blue seats all plastic following the voice of america

bumper to bumper bags for everything fatal injections of this fast food life

 

blue blood

wilson/hooper © bigfix 2008

kings & queens shit regimes oil men & cars royalty & casualties candles in the dark

 

rich men poor men masters & slaves democracies & corporations politics & shame

 

movie stars & hangers on are both cut in the end plebes & their presidents every back will bend

 

your borders & your armies your gated communities are merely an illusion of wealth & security

 

war on terror war on drugs both useless in the end fight greed & poverty let the war begin

 

shame let the war begin

 

blue blood red blood arteries & veins we’re all part of the same heart beating day by day
