Jack Johnson Donating Tour Profits to Charity

Post by Mr Play »

Jack Johnson is giving all of his 2010 tour proceeds to charity. Apparently he did the same thing in 2008.

Like him or not, you have to admit this is pretty cool.
It was a pleasure and a hell of an evening
Truly was our night to win
But the authorities insist on my leaving
Take care my American friend

That's a great thing to do.

And while I usually think his music is boring and monotone I must admit that I like what I've heard of his new album "To The Sea".
"You And Your Heart" is a good song and the video is cool. Makes me wanna hit the beach.
