Subject: [AVALON] Eno in Wall of Sound

With a "wall of sound" from hundreds of anti-war protestors in the  
background, Tony Blair told the Westminster Cathedral audience at his lecture  on Faith 
and Globalisation on 3 April, "I make no claims for    
moral superiority. Quite the reverse."

The Westminster Cathedral  lecture was preceded outside by a silent vigil by 
Catholic anti-war group  Pax Christi, members of which then joined Stop the 
War's noisy protest  timed to start as Blair began speaking. For once, an 
anti-war  protest got some media coverage, the Daily Mail report being one  of the 
better examples: http://tinyurl.com/yoctq3

However, the BBC's  Today programmed managed to have a long feature on 
Blair's speech without  mentioning the protests outside. Musician and record 
producer Brian Eno,  who participated in the anti-war "wall of "sound", sent this 
response to  the BBC:

"Your 'Today' report about Blair's speech failed to  mention the source of 
the noise in the background: many hundreds  of people protesting outside against 
the absurdity of the man who has  presided over Britain's biggest foreign 
policy disaster since the Crimean  War being asked to talk about globalisation. 
The real democrats were  outside last night. Funny you missed them."

As for Brian Eno  and everyone else who participated in the "wall of sound" 
protest, Blair  apologised to his audience that were there. "Sorry about the 
people who  follow me around," he said. 
 
All good  things

If someone (Colleen, perhaps) can supply me with a link to that list, I will 
see that I just wasted about 2 hours crusising IMDB.    (-;
