Playing for Change

Grandpa Elliott, Clarence Bekker, Roberto Luti, Playing for Change band, Piazza del Luogo Pio, Livorno
The first time I heard of Playing for Change was because our friend Luis Gomez sent me a link to a video where a Livornese guitarist, Roberto Luti, was playing with many other musicians from around the world.

Last Tuesday the Playing for Change band came to Livorno for a concert in Piazza del Luogo Pio. Sorry for the quality of the pictures, but I had to shot them from about 40 meters, at night. In the first photo you can see Grandpa Elliott from New Orleans, Clarence Bekker from Amsterdam and Roberto Luti from Livorno.

Wow! That certainly is an interesting mix of people. I also think the grainy look adds something to these photos.
