I saw BECK perform at the 25th Anniversary BRIDGE SCHOOL Benefit* in Mountainview California last month and he blew me away.
So sincere of a performer, his kids were on-stage, he played with Neil Young and Eddie Vedder later in the night. Anyway, his peformance made me
immediately purchase his CD called "Sea Change" from iTunes. It is amazing. He wrote it almost a decade ago, after a hard break-up.
Like most CD's, I don't like/listen to all of the songs... but the ones I do like, 5 or 6 of them, are amazing. I just cannot stop listening to it.
I also downloaded a couple of his performances, from youtube, and watch them all the time.
I never knew that BECK (Hansen) was so talented.
* The Bridge School Benefit Concert:
Organized by musician Neil Young and his wife, Pegi, the Bridge School Benefit Concert is an annual, all acoustic, non-profit charity event held every October at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. All proceeds directly benefit the operations of The Bridge School.
Our Mission
The Bridge School is a non-profit organization whose mission is to ensure that individuals with severe speech and physical impairments achieve full participation in their communities through the use of augmentative & alternative means of communication (AAC) and assistive technology (AT) applications and through the development, implementation and dissemination of innovative life-long educational strategies. The Bridge School is an internationally recognized leader in the education of children who use augmentative and alternative communication and has developed unique programs and trained highly skilled professionals in the use of state of the art assistive technology.
The first concert was held October 13, 1986 and, with the exception of 1987- the year the educational program was launched- it has become a highly anticipated Bay Area favorite.
