MS Led - Music and MS
– Shawn Telford
“Do we dance or do we riot?” is the question that seems to drive the new album from Seattle’s Ms. Led. At the center of the band is Lesli Wood, a spunky singer with a keen ability to howl, growl or snarl — and just as easily lure listeners to the bedroom, occasionally in the same song. Her dexterity is matched only by her capacity to turn a phrase, which tend to be straightforward, politically charged and largely feminist pangs that would be didactic in the hands of a lesser wordsmith.
….
Some of the CD’s finest moments, however, are also its most personal.
“Fools,” a gorgeous, complicated swan song, which closes out the
record, appears to be about relationships. But when you listen closer,
it’s about inevitability, or in Lesli Wood’s case, her fight with
multiple sclerosis.

We are attempting to spread the word about an MS Georgia Chapter online event and hope you’ll post. For a $15 tax-deductible donation you can support MS research and potentially win up to $5,000 in prizes.
MS receives 90 cents back on the dollar from every donation, most charitable events only return 30-50 cents of every dollar raised back to the charity.
We have a goal to raise $50,000 by December 28, 2007 for MS.
