One Patient
One Patient
One Patient: where institutional corruption dictates how health care is allocated – leaving many with care likened to that of a third world country…if any.
A film by Libby Spears
A small team, without federal, state or county assistance has embarked upon a personal mission…to provide access to healthcare, regardless of ability to pay, without discrimination.
We hope that this film will provide a greater insight into the governmental and institutional corruption that dictates how healthcare is allocated – leaving many with care likened to that of a third world country…if any. This film seeks to call into question the inconsistencies in healthcare as it relates to those most at risk, the poor and un/underinsured.

Today in America, the face of poverty has changed. No longer is it the homeless man under the L or the toothless woman on the corner who pleads with her eyes…and her cup. As America grapples with devastating economic times, the harsh reality is that the face of poverty is now sitting to your left, to your right, and possibly even in your very own home. Illness and injury know no socioeconomic status and no one is immune – the rich, the poor, the middle-class. Let us introduce a world where lives are changed despite the decline of governmental programs. Together we hope to challenge the stereotypical beliefs about those in need, and find sustainable ways to address healthcare in a failing economy.
While you had the opportunity to meet Mike Williams in the trailer, you will meet many more patients from vastly different backgrounds who share one common theme, all of them were denied access to or let down by our health care system and they were so close to simply giving up. You will walk along side us as you meet each patient – documenting who they are, where they come from and why the quest to maintain health and wellness has been a struggle. You will witness their commitment, their raw emotion, their accountability, their challenges and their successes.
What do you do when you are forced to choose between rent and food, between bus fare and medicine? How do you secure a future for yourself and your family when the pain you feel renders you completely disabled…or addicted? It is widely understood that in the United States of America, despite the promise of Obama Care, healthcare is not and will not be afforded to all Americans equally.
Watch as we follow Dr. Dan and Karla trekking to the Middle East where taking care of patients in refugee camps in Lebanon serves to fulfill the mission of serving those less fortunate yet remains as a means to keep their clinics open in the United States. See the irony when conditions in these camps and devastated countries are still superior to those found within the “safety net” health care system in the disparate areas of Chicago…where healthcare is often likened to a third world country.
Most critically however, the team hopes to leave a footprint, so that together we can build a foundation for future generations as we change the world…OnePatient at a time.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
If you aren’t able to contribute financially, you can still help!
SHARE the project with your friends and family. SPREAD the word on social media sites.
WHERE THE $ IS GOING
We already have 25% of our filming done and now we need $100,000 enabling us to continue to edit the footage we have already shot, and to continue filming. Your money will go toward production, editing, and appeals for the additional funds to complete the project. We will keep you posted on our progress every step of the way, including field reports from Lebanon in late June when our film crew will travel to the Middle East to film Dr. Dan working with the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF) to bring his medical expertise to the needs of the children living in refugee camps. Without these funds, we will NOT be able to make this trip happen!
WISH LIST: If we raise more than $100,000 we can make the film even better. More money means more time in the field and in the edit room, giving us greater production quality.

PHASE REVERSE – Heavy Rock from Athens, Greece
PHASE REVERSE
They started as a trio on October 2007.
The three of them meet at John’s recording studio, and they decide to join their forces.
It was clear from the very beginning that there was chemistry between them, and everything seemed to be very promising. John was the part of the puzzle that was missing all these years… His unique style, sound, and “fresh” approach, got the best out of Alex and Tas. After lots of live performances and a year later they hit the studio and record 11 songs that signal the birth of “PHASE REVERSE”…
Blues, Rock’ N’ Roll, Hard Rock, and Heavy Metal all sonically mix while the American Southern Rock is set as a background all processed in a “PHASE REVERSE” mode resulting in the particular
and simultaneously modern sound of the band.
They called it ”Heavy Rock” and this was something new for the Greek Rock and Metal scene in 2007.
One thing is for sure, that we are dealing with some genuine rockers that their songs simply and genuinely declare their presence in their own unique way with a voice of their own at a time that is characterized by labels… in their own words:
“…our music is just Rock…Heavy Rock!”
· “Phase Reverse” released their Debut CD on 07 Dec 2009 available on the Greek market only
and digitally at: Amazon – e Music – iTunes – Napster & Rapsody.
· Oct 2009: “Phase Reverse” participate in STREETCULT cd #13 with their song “I Got Your Back” a compilation cd by Eclipse Records distributed only in the U.S.
· Jan 2010: “Phase Reverse” have been chosen among 1.500 indie artists from all genres globally to participate in “PLAYLIST 7” the new music campaign for Windows 7 sponsored by Microsoft.
. Jan 2011 : “Phase Reverse” are selected among thousands of artists from allover the world, to participate to AonMedia’s ”Gods Of Indie Guitar” Compilation CD featuring :”the best Independent or unsigned guitarists between Planet earth & Alone on the Sun!” Their song ”Cross to bear” will be one of the 17 tracks of the CD and this is a great honor for Chief, Phase Reverse and for the whole Greek Independent Music Scene !
. Sep 2011 : “Phase Reverse” have inked a multi-album deal with Aural Music !
Aural Music will re-release their debut album titled “Phase Reverse” in December 16, 2011 worldwide!
The new release will have a bonus track ”Tear Down the Walls”. This song was recorded during their first album recordings but wasn’t included in the first release because it was never finished. So now they decided to include it in the new worldwide release since the song is already a part of the album.
. Sep 2012 Tas left the band for personal reasons.
Takis Mark (Vocals) and Kostas Dragon-K (bass) are the new members of the band and all together
are working on new music in the studio for the release of their second album.
They are also touring in Greece and Europe.

PHASE REVERSE – I GOT YOUR BACK @ RADIO ARVILA SHOW
David J Caron
http://www.reverbnation.com/davidjcaron
So who is this guy ??? the artist… David J Caron???, you may wonder and what is his biography in relation to his musical work.. Well if you really wanna know, he’s an Irish/Italian musician, who grew up in England, now living in Ireland.. his main instrument is the guitar but what he is first and foremost as an artist, is a composer, writer, and producer..But more than this he is an exclusive inventor of unique and innovative, melodic, powerful meaningful Rock music that exists on a new wavelength and approach, steering away from the mainstream you’ve heard before,. Words used to describe his music have been hard to find, when it does not slot into any one known genre precisely.. “Epic” and “different” have been suggested by some,, whether rightly or wrongly..
Heavy Guitar driven compositions, an intricately designed and arranged mix of power rhythms and single note riffs, sometimes interlaced with secondary underlying melodic patterns of guitar and/or syncopated arpeggio bubbles of complementing synth sounds, powerful and driving yet often unobvious bass-lines. Guitar solos are a purposeful and memorably tuneful inclusion when needed, designed to be as much an equal part of the track as all else in it, and not just an interval from the song in order to include the ever-present commonplace Rock song necessity . Drum patterns deliberately both misleadingly simple in places as well as perplexingly elaborate in others, all designed as a canvas on which to paint intelligent, thought-provoking and meaningful lyrics, with clarity of voice, although with enigmatic ambiguity of puzzling verse, absence of the obvious stereo-typically expected over-used Rock clichés, delivering in harmony, melodic melodies to catch both the intrigue of the mind and the pleasing of the ear, somehow uplifting with unclear disguise, satisfying the required qualifications for not only fans of Rock Music, but music itself.
He has released his debut album, which he had been recording for 18 months, a length of time due mainly to the fact that it contains 28 tracks, unheard of for a debut album, but no track of which he felt he could leave off the album, though still priced as a single album. A backlog of songs and themes some of which originated many years previous that he felt he had to finally unveil and unleash to the world, in order to free himself for the next build up of ideas waiting to be born from the cauldron of his incessantly prolific particular mind..
So..what if there is no biography as such of any relevance?. What if it just starts here and now?. Well here and now his universe does burst into life.. with an almighty bang.. A biography is a detailed description or account of someone’s life which presents the subject’s life story, David J Caron has condensed and bared his story, his soul, his demons and fantasies, his observations, his belief and essence of character, for all to see and hear, with a deep reaching integrity and unexampled style, in the way he does best, in his music and in his words, letting the result speak for itself without the ever-present bullshit that many others feel they need to opt for to embellish and mask their music with.
Open your ears and open your mind, see what you hear, you won’t forget what you find..This is Different..
Here he is.. this is only the beginning of what he can do.. ..the 1st chapter.. either you like it or either you don’t.. what else truly matters..? for now…
David J. Caron – Comin’ to get you
Rory Lewis Band playing at Lunar Independent Music Festival
Rory Lewis Band: So Ugh L.A!
The Rory Lewis Band has appeared on Rolling Stone’s Billboard Charts two slots under Eminem. Their huge sales of Heroines and Songs For Friday catapulted the indie band to open for Everclear, Buckcherry, George Thorogood, Violent Femmes, Jerry Lewis and three acts before Stone Temple Pilots. Rory was known as the most downloaded indie artist during the heyday of MySpace. Since receiving his PhD in Computational Neuroscience in 2008 Rory began clinical research in Acute Brain Injury and Epilepsy at Anshcutz Medical School, CU Denver where he is an adjunct professor in the department of Neurology and the department of Pediatrics. Rory is an Assistant professor in Computer Science, Bachelor of Innovation and Computational Neurosciences at UCCS too. In 2011 Rory began writing songs again and is now recording his third CD: “So Ugh L.A!” Provided by artist representative.
Steve Beai has been a professional drummer for over 25 years in bands which include The YardApes, The Gear, and Intermission. Also an accomplished author with several hundred published pieces, he has received critical acclaim for his non-fiction work on censorship as well as his novels and short fiction. An outspoken fourth-generation Italian from Clinton, Indiana, Steve now hides out somewhere along the Front Range in Southern Colorado.
In ’00 Rory was the most downloaded band. Became a doc now he’s back: We’re born how we’re born! 1.3 mil people agree in first 2 months.
Party with the band, book them on kickstarter : http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/rorylewis/rory-lewis-band-so-ugh-la-were-born-how-were-born
Rory Lewis Band
Its time we show people that we are Born Like We’re Born so let’s get on and love one another.
Between 1999 and 2003 Rory Lewis was the most downloaded unsigned band on the internet.
Right below Eminiem on Rolling Stone Charts, topping the charts in mySpace with over 2 million fans, beating John Mayer in downloads, opening for Everclear, Buckcherry, George Thorogood, Violent Femmes and The BlackCrowes.
He left it all to become a Doctor in Computational Neurosciences. Now, 9 years later he’s back!
This is the third CD of the Rory Lewis Band and we’ve done it before. However, this is what will happen after our project gets funded: We will complete teh CD at Monument Sound in Black Forest, Colorado where we have already begin to work (http://youtu.be/bqePmX3_nT0). The seeing that our band was on Rolling Stone charts before we will eb reviewed by Rolling Stone. Meeting our funding goal will certainly help us but we need to clarify that every project has the potential for setbacks – they may not give it a high ranking at Rolling Stone magazine. However, we have had over 1.3 million people in a few months (see above link at YouTube so we are confident this will dampen the possibilities of this project not selling and making people aware of our goal: We are born how we’re born!
Thank you.
Rory Lewis

LoNero are heading out on a 25 city tour across the United States with original Iron Maiden vocalist Paul Di’Anno
Help Make It Happen For LoNero Tour 2012-2013
Website: http://www.indiegogo.com/lonero
Music: http://www.reverbnation.com/open_graph/song/8058400
LoNero are heading out on a 25 city tour across the United States with original Iron Maiden vocalist Paul Di’Anno starting on December 21st and ending January 20th.
We will be main support for Di’Anno as well as his backing band. Some expenses are paid for however it is still expensive to go on tour.
Things like merchandise, fuel etc costs a lot.
Unfortunately we don’t have a major label supporting us.
From the beginning we have always gone against what is the trend of the day. We play music we are passionate about and others are passionate about listening to. To us the most important thing is the music and the fans.
Our fans have always been some of the most loyal around and we can’t thank each of you enough. For years we’ve been getting emails from fans asking us to play near them.
This tour is our way of finally bringing our music directly to you. It’s very important for us to do this nationwide tour to meet our fans.
They’ve stuck with us through the years and it’s the least we can do to say “thank you” personally.
So far the states we will be playing are:
Fri 12/21/2012 Oakland, CA – Oakland Metro
Sat 12/22/2012 Portland, OR – Hawthorne Theater
Sun 12/23/12 Seattle, WA – El Corazon
Thur 12/27/12 Chicago, IL – Double Door
Thur 01/03/13 White Marsh, MD – House of Rock
Fri 01/04/13 Poughkeepsie, NY – The Chance Theater
Sat 1/05/13 Hartford, CT – Webster Underground
Sun 1/06/13 New York, NY – B.B. King Blues Club
Fri 1/18/13 Ramon, CA – Ramona Mainstage
Sun 1/20/13 Hollywood, CA – Whiskey A Go Go
MORE DATES WILL BE ADDED SOON
What We Need & What You Get
We need to raise $10,000 for a van, more merchandise, fuel, etc.
$2,500 for van rental
$1,500 for fuel
$4,500 for merchandise (CDs, shirts, posters, stickers)
$1,500 for miscellaneous
What you get for helping us is everything from a shoutout on our Twitter/Facebook page to autographed CDs, personal phone calls, backstage passes and even dinner with the band before a show. A few of you will even get to hang out during soundcheck, get a guitar lesson backstage and more (full details of perks are available on the campaign page).
Even if we don’t reach our goal any funding will still go towards the tour (but we really hope we can reach our goal of $10,000)
The Impact
Your contribution is invaluable to us. By contributing any amount you will be helping us get our music out there to a wider audience. Live music is suffering because less and less bands can afford to tour. We LOVE playing live and want to bring our passion to our fans.
We really want to make this tour not only successful for us but for our fans as well.
Other Ways You Can Help
Please help us get the word out about our tour and campaign and use the sharing tools provided by Indiegogo.
Thank you so much for reading this and helping in any way you can!
LoNero
Bill, Brandon, Mike and Marco
There’s something to be said for having conviction and dedication for your art in a business that is so watered down that it has become a shallow shell of its former self. LoNero is one of those rare bands that stray away from trends and the beaten path. They are four musicians that got together to create a new genre of instrumental rock, Guitarcore, a genre all their own. So infectious that even those that don’t listen to rock find themselves headbanging and foot tapping to their unique brand of Instrumental Guitarcore.
LoNero’s debut cd “Relentless” (released with a month long promotion from Apple Computers) is 14 tracks of punishing rhythms, beautiful acoustic and infectious melodies. Built on the principal that the song should always come first, “Relentless” proves that you can still be instrumental and gain a wide and varied fan base without having to follow what others have already done.
Currently, the band is set to release their new album “J.F.L.” on May 24th, 2011 which was produced by Grammy award winning producer Michael Rosen. The band plans to tour and with endorsements/sponsorships from products such as Peavey, EMG, Hot Picks, Seymour Duncan, Dunlop, and Rebel Straps, says Bill Lonero. “I’ve had the privilege of playing or recording with the likes of Cliff Williams (AC/DC), Simon Kirke (Bad Company), Stu Hamm (Joe Satriani), Gigi Gonaway (Mariah Carey), Mike Mangini (Extreme and Steve Vai) and Polo Jones (Zucchero and Whitney Houston) so I understand what hard work is and am prepared to do what it takes to build our fan base. We love playing live because we can connect with our fans.”

Hailing from Philly, Chris Casso and Mike Thatcher met at a Vivid Video party in SoHo. Realizing they were from the same hometown, they found themselves ignoring all the Vivid Girls and debating things like “Beatles or Stones?” Deciding that they had a common vision for the future of rock music, they had no choice but to start a band! With Thatcher on guitar, and Casso on lead vocals, they recruited fellow Philadelphian’s Tom Walling on drums and Kjell Benner on bass and immediately began recording. Later joined on lead guitar by Dave Lenat, STD’s lineup was complete. After only a few months as a band, they were playing their first show together at House Of Blues opening for Clutch.
