linda ronstadt

Linda has just proven that her heart "is just like a wheel".....her passion didn't end while she was a siren wearing a Dodgers uniform on stage, it keeps right on going and is forever trying to move us all...thats PURE, it gets no better than this. Who would have ever thought our little linda would be making important speeches at Congress that could benefit us all, at this stage in her career! What a gal, what a HEART!

linda ronstadts speech for congress

Well not only is Linda as lovely as ever, but she is very very well spoken and articulate! I have loved her for decades, she has what it takes to stay current, and be heard! Kudos for her and her cause to keep music in our hearts, and schools, for it is the universal language, and she is just the perfect one to reminds us one and all!

Liberal views welcome

After eight long years of George W, Bush, Linda Ronstadt and Josh Groban are a breath of fresh air. It's the arts and culture that keeps us sane and distances us away from corporate greed and government corruption associated with the Bush administration. You go, Linda!!!

Not right now

Good lord people. WE have priorities to repair our financial system right now. If Washington had a clue, that's what their spending bills would reflect. In comparison to the USELESS STIMULUS bill, I'm sure we could get more benefit from supporting the arts. BUT it's all money we cannot afford right now. Besides, I thought a little pain and suffering enhanced an artist's perspective.
