Band Aid 20 - The Real Story
14-12-2004 16:27

The CD is a response from the anti-capitalist movement with several spoof versions of the Band-Aid 20 single, a song almost beyond parody. Diverse in their messages and themes, the songs are about understanding that we don’t exist separately from the “world outside our window”, that we are all part of that world and have the power to change it.Media War Against G8 Protestors Begins (secret anarchist training camps)
