FEBRUARY 2017 - ANNE FEENEY'S FELLOW TRAVELERS' ADVISORY - VOLUME 10, Number 12

Thanks for visiting my blog.   It's one of the ways I try to stay in touch with my far-flung family, friends, fans, folkies and fellow travelers. I realized as I was putting the heading on this month's news that this is the 120th issue of the Fellow Travelers' Advisory - Ten years of keeping in touch!Thanks so much for being part of my life and adventures! I love you all and I'm so grateful for your support of my music and my activism.

Outside of Trump Tower on January 13th with 2000 Single Payer activists
from Health Care NOW! and the Labor Campaign for Single Payer

So, I know most of you don't live in Florida -  but I bet that most of you know someone who does!!
Please let your Florida friends know that we are  coming. As you might suspect, my show doesn't attract much in the way of corporate sponsorship...

Many of you have seen the cover of my new CD.  It's my brilliant, talented husband's version of visionary romantic Eugene Delacroix's famous 1830 painting - "Liberty leading the people." My husband, Julie Leonardsson is a highly respected artist and satirist in Sweden. He adapted the painting appropriately, as I am considered by many as a frontline activist. Facebook's censorship is ridiculous! I would really appreciate it if you could comment on the censorship on my page, or take a copy of the cd cover and post it on your page so that facebook users can see what it's supposed to look like without Facebook "protecting" them. Available for purchase or download at cdbaby.com/warontheworkers Here's a little history of Delacroix's masterpiece: https://www.khanacademy.org/humanities/ap-art-history/later-europe-and-americas/enlightenment-revolution/v/delacroix-liberty-leading-the-people-1830                              After my Florida tour I'm headed to  Sweden for some R&R with my husband.  He seems very happy to be out of the Evil Empire as President Little Hand turns the country into Backwards Land.  It will be good to be away from American television.

Don't miss this fabulous opportunity to recharge your spirit. http://www.laborheritage.org/save-datek-2017-great-labor-arts-exchange/ "More fun than the law will soon allow ..." ******************************************************************************** WEST COAST IN JULY?? I'm looking forward to a tour to the left coast in July & maybe part of August.  If you live anywhere between Santa Cruz and Quadra, BC and you'd like to see me in your living room, church, union hall, university, rally, riot, festival or convention please send an email to me at anne@annefeeney.com.  I'm figuring on flying into SFO, heading south, making a loop that might even take me to Reno and Sacramento and then coming to Oregon Country Fair (if they accept my application) and on up 101.  Hugging the OR coast as long as I can, I'm hoping to play Aberdeen WA, Tacoma, Seattle. I'm going to do this at (I hope) a leisurely pace. *************************************************************************************************** Not Booked Yet for Labor Day! *********************************************************************************** Walter Brasch, RIP Those of you who participated in the CRUSH CORBETT tour in 2014 will remember the congenial and charming Walt Brasch, who hosted our CRUSH CORBETT TOUR in Bloomsburg, PA. I am so sorry to report that Walt died on February 9th. He is survived by his wonderful wife Rosemary and many family members and friends. Walt was the author of "Fracking Pennsylvania" - a definitive study of the terrible effect of this greed-driven folly, and 19 other books. I have several copies of Walt's book: Before the First Snow: Stories from the Revolution.   It's too late to meet my friend Walter in person, but I would be happy to send a copy of Before the First Snow to you if you reply to this post. His interesting and impressive obit appears below. http://www.newsitem.com/news/2017-02-12/Editorials/TRIBUTE_TO_WALT_BRASCH_Career_journalist_passes_at.html ************************************************************************************ The best way to get through the next four years is to resist and rebel.   The best way to get through the next four years is to be kind, joyful, loving and generous. The best way to get through the next four years is to nurture your soul with music, dance, art, nature walks. On to Florida! I'm very excited to be touring with my pal, the amazing, talented and handsome Eric Schwartz!
