About
Seattle peace & justice advocate, Amnesty International activist, Springsteen, Pearl Jam & Seattle local music fan.
Topics I write about include AI, peace & justice issues, music, books, movies, life in Seattle. I try to include highlighted hyperlinks to the original news stories, Amnesty International reports, music sites, etc., so you can check them out for yourself.
Standard Amnesty disclaimer: Unless quoting from an actual AI website or document, all opinions are my own, and shouldn’t be taken as AI positions, especially when they’re about other peace and justice topics. Amnesty International is necessarily neutral on politics, other than the need for human rights in all cases.
PS: Sorry for any delays for people posting comments. I do have the settings so I need to approve a first time comment, to avoid both spam or any really rude comments (the latter, I’ve been fortunate enough not to have had much problem with yet, but I did find there’s a whole other creative use of spam when it comes to blogs).
Thanks,
Colleen

I saw the photos of my band you posted on Flickr from Folklife 2010. I like some enough to want to use them on my next CD. Please email me back!

Of course! Answered off line though my main e-mail account, but any of the musicians or others I’ve taken photos of and have posted on Flickr (and/or videos on YouTube) are welcome to use them. I have them all set so anyone can download them by clicking “Actions”, then “View All Sizes” on the main photo page, and select the size you want, then click download above that; and/or send me an e-mail to javacolleen@gmail.com (or my main e-mail account, if you know it).
Putting e-mail contact info (that’s not too identifying) on my public accounts is one of those housekeeping items I’ll be catching up on soon, along with updating the blog.

Nice work with the REVERBfest blog! I know I’m a little late in responding but we’ve added the video you took to our page. Looks awesome! Here’s a short Documentary of our Iceland show after Reverbfest:
next show, contact us and we’ll put you on the list :)

Thanks Ethan, and really awesome seeing the video of the band kicking it in Iceland! I’m the one who’s way behind, not having updated the blog since shortly after I went back to school in January. I’ve neglected posting on quite a few shows, including the DESC benefit in February when I took this one of Pretty Plain Jane:
I’ll definitely take you up on the offer!
