   About Great Balancing Act
Great Balancing Act are Canada's premier flowerpunk band. They play cool, colourful music that rocks, with more hooks than a fly-fisherman's cap. Jeep and Nina started writing together in Montreal way back in 1994. The lineup has featured various talented cats including Alex Madsen (Divorcees), Gilles Gaudet (Humfat), Fred Weltall (Planete X), Kim Wilmot and Lullaby Baxter. This incarnation has the duo backed by the inimitable Sara Parks on drums and on occasion, Alex Madsen on lead guitar.

World Peace Before 2021





May 12 2008 2:57 AM

Thank you for YourFriendship. My eight-year-old-peace-activist son Axil Kollist's quest for World Peace Before 2021 is gaining momentum! I'm so proud of him. Please embrace him AND his song "World Peace Before 2021" which he performs beautifully. His performance can be seen on MySpace, his webpage www. worldpeacebefore2021. com and/or YouTube (by searching his name Axil Kollist.) It is my intention to post a new video of him singing his song every few months so people can watch his talent grow as impressively as the momentum for his quest! I'm inviting you to contact my son directly too via his email address worldpeacebefore2021@hawaii.rr.com .I'm sharing two photos with you. The first is of my son distributing his free world peace bumperstickers and the second photo is of him singing his song “World Peace Before 2021” at Maui's Martin Luther King Jr. Peace Day Festivities in January 08. Very best regards, Axil's mom

Hi Great Balancing Act,

Thanks for the add!

The nature of reality is the fabric of dreams, and I thank you for adding your dreams to this amazing collective stream of consciousness. I appreciate your open-mindedness and your friendship. I hope that you find unconditional love and eternal peace as you travel your "path with heart".

"In the province of the mind, what one believes to be true is true or becomes true, within certain limits to be found experientially and experimentally. These limits are further beliefs to be transcended. In the mind, there are no limits."
- John Lilly

Hold onto your frontal lobes and turbo-boost your cerebral cortex with brainwave meditation subliminal CDs and subliminal downloads at the Brainwave Mind Voyages site. Thanks in advance for visiting and showing some love whenever you have some time!

"Man's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions."
--Oliver Wendell Homes

Cheers to YOU and everyone involved in consciousness expansion!

Have a WONDER-filled NOW and a mind-EXPANDING day!

Sincerely,

Marc ^v^
