This friday (Jan 16th) we are going to make a very special concert.
MindFlow will perform in front of the kids from “Casa do Zezinho”.
Casa do Zezinho is an institution with the main objective to take kids out of the streets and teach them a profession, give them home and perspective.
The institution also provides health and home assistance, physical activities and most important, it estimulates self-learning and good social behavior.
They live in a very dangerous area here in Sao Paulo surrounded by crime and like they usually say: “Here, the laws don't exist”.
We are really excited with the oportunity to maybe inspire a little bit those young kids with our music.
Most of these children haven't got the chance to see a live concert and we are really honored to give them this oportunity.
Why some kids on street are our problem others not?
Take a look at the test this institution made (at downtown Sao Paulo):

Music is life
Here we are... writing new songs again. It is an exciting period.
It's amazing how music can translate you into a sound and takes a really small piece of you and make it grow.
Music is the camera of the soul. Well, maybe it can take more accurate pictures because beyond the image it captures feelings, emotions and more...
When notes hit someone else’s heart it becomes something else. It grows.
I think this thought defines life: feelings and emotions occurring on an imaginary sense of time that makes us old but better. Like music!
So... I guess they were right! Music is Life!
Last week we've visited an institution called "Casa do Zezinho".
They work hard to take kids out of the streets and teach them a profession. And music is one of their classes.
On Jan 16th 2009, we are going to play a concert for these young kids and maybe with our music we can help and inspire a little bit on their beautiful work.
They are located in a place called "death triangle" because it's in the middle of three slums. According to the founder, "Tia Dag", the laws didn't arrive in there yet, and death is a common word in the kid’s vocabulary.
We hope music can erase this word from their vocabulary.
(Of course they were right. They are old and better.)
Send your life (music) to us!
