TATE have been working on a new song in honor of Neda Agha-Soltan, the young Iranian woman who was part of the peaceful protests in Iran in 2009. She was shot and killed on the street bringing awareness worldwide when her death was recorded and uploaded to the internet. Here is the video with the new song and explaining more about Neda and her story. Makes you appreciate what you have huh? I think this is a great cause and TATE have made me proud to call myself a fan. The song was released today. (June 8th) All proceeds will go directly to Amnesty International. The concert that was on May 25th was a benefit for the Neda Project and was also sponsored by Amnesty International. Here is the performance live and Mikel talking about the project. Not sure if you guys have seen the actual video that Mikel is talking about so I will post it. Do know that these videos are very graphic (especially the second one) so I will only post the links. View at your own risk.www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbdEf0QRsLMwww.youtube.com/watch?v=QZZGJ3aOyRQ

DAMN! I honestly didn't think it would get so many views! (Shows how much faith I have. ) I am sooooo going to spam the shit out of the link to that video. lmao We got a post in the official site too. Anyone going to upload a picture of themselves with a "I am Neda." sign? I will. ;D Best damn believe. I wish I could donate. However, I am a barely getting there student. I like to see new pictures of them. Daren...plz grow back your stache. K? Thnx. Besides that...it's great that they're doing this

Seems like they uploaded all the pictures into one video. I'm a sucker for montage videos...
I'm only sad that I didn't upload my pic in time. lol
