| Article: | Music carries a positive message to kids GUEST COLUMN: David Bertson Life is good for me today primarily because I get to do what I love. As a parent, blues musician, and prevention educator, I appreciate the importance of helping young people find their way in life. Over the past 20 years, I have had face time with over 50,000 young people in almost every imaginable setting: schools, libraries, music festivals, drug rehab centers, jails, churches and museums. I have delivered the message of a healthy lifestyle to these kids, and I've used the blues to do it. |
