About me: "For in the end we will conserve only what we love, we will love only what we understand, and we will understand only what we are taught." -Baba Dioum
We decided that to get people to care about the environment and make the right decisions, the right decision has to be or at least seem easier than the less environmentally sound alternatives. The idea was hatched in August of '05 during the car ride home from surfing. We called it "The Save the Planet Tour." The tour will be a group of bands, artists, celebrities, vendors (food and other products like cars, energy, cleaning products...) advocates and athletes that come together to promote our responsibility to the environment, wildlife, and humanity, and ways to help with these causes. We hope to make the tour a three day event in each city that it visits with a sporting event and music the first night, music and fun all of day 2, and community activism and a grand finale of music day 3. All of this is possible and we know it. We just need millions of people to know about it, hundreds of thousands to talk about it, and a few hundred to help. Lets Make It Happen!
Who I'd like to meet: Good people. Everyone interested in helping to make this tour happen. People that care about the environment. People that want change. People that want to make change happen. People that can make it happen. People with ideas.
Dennis Kucinich, the 14th Dalai Lama, Ralph Nader, Oprah, Bono, Al Gore, Jack Johnson, Dave Matthews, Jenn Wertz, John Mackey, everyone!

THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE IS NOT A PERSONAL ATTACK, IT IS A REMINDER TO ALL OF US: Society is trying to control and categorize us: We were born into this life to win the prize, of staying in our designated stations, so we can provide battery power to the ant farm. We keep it running, fast and efficiently, so the rich continue getting richer and the poor continue getting poorer. There are so many things that need to change about the world. If more of us focused on making life rich, instead of wasting our time making money so we can buy into our consumer based, material society; we could create positive global change...

All you have to do is send your email address to queen.elvis@yahoo.ie and we will send it to you. We have spent the last year rehearsing with a full band and are now ready to bring it on the road. You can get a look at us when we appear on Balcony TV this week with the full line up. We are currently taking bookings for gigs/concerts/festivals and can be contacted on the email above, or through our myspace and facebook pages.
