    I've not only seen these children perform several times but I've hosted them in my home in Scotland three times and all I can say is they are outstanding human beings. Their capacity to love is overflowing. For children who have nothing, they're happy and make those around them feel happy. They sing and laugh and sing some more. The boys love to kick footballs/soccer balls around when ever they can. The girls are lovely and like girly things. Can you imagine experiencing ice cream for the first time when you've never tasted anything colder than water from a river? I've seen their expressions... If you can, I wholeheartedly recommend you take time out of your busy days to spend a few hours with these children. You will be the better for it and you'll never forget the experience. If my arms were long enough I'd wrap them around the entire group, all at once, just so I could feel all that love coming back to me. Collapse

    I saw their movie last weekend at the Broadway Theater and it was awesome! Very inspirational! I'm taking all my friends to see them live.

    I saw the movie and I was amazed how these folks can still have the stamina to perform these challenging punk rock songs. It's an opportunity of a lifetime to see them live!!
