Music for Iraq!

Thanks to some very generous musician friends in Olympia, Washington, I've had the opportunity to hand out dozens of tin whistles, harmonicas, ocarinas, and stuffed animals to Kurdish and Iraqi children in northern Iraq. There are lots of AK-47s on the streets, but not a guitar or fiddle for miles. That's what I call deprivation. Maybe after a year of being a "musical Johnny Appleseed," we can make a dent in this problem.
