The ALAS ("wings" in Spanish) organization today announces plans to bring many of the world’s leading Latin music artists together for two large-scale concerts that will serve as a call-to-action to aid impoverished children in Latin America. Set to take place on May 17th in both Mexico City and Buenos Aires, these simultaneous free concerts will seek not to raise money but rather harness the power that comes from bringing thousands of music fans together to support the ALAS mission of strengthening and expanding public and private sector support for Early Childhood Development in Latin America.

Improving the lives of thirty-two million Latin American children afflicted by poverty will require the integrated education, nutrition and health programs characterized by Early Childhood Development (ECD). ALAS was created by leading artists, intellectual figures and business leaders of Latin America to launch a new social movement that will generate a collective commitment to ECD by encouraging action from governments, the private and public sector, and partnering with innovative organizations to create sustainable solutions.

Thus far, the following musical artists have given their commitment to participate in these historic concerts: Alejandro Sanz, Aleks Syntek, Babasónicos, Calle 13, Chayanne, David Bisbal, Diego Torres, Fito Páez, Gustavo Cerati, Jorge Drexler, Juan Luis Guerra, Juanes, Los Tigres del Norte, Maná, Miguel Bosé, Paulina Rubio, Ricardo Montaner, Ricky Martin, Shakira and Timbiriche.

Over the coming weeks, look for further announcements as to additional participating artists, exact venue locations and individual show line-ups. Check out www.movimientoalas.org for more info.

Juan Luis Guerra should of won the AMA last night

Despite having mediocre results in her movies and concerts this year, Jennifer Lopez wins an American Music Award last night. An award that is normally telecast, was omitted from the show, obvious because JLO wasn't going to be there. Juan Luis Guerra and Daddy Yankee were also nominated in the category. We thought the AMA awards were great, but we suggest that they put a little more Latin flavor next year. Juan Luis Guerra has had a spectacular year and we believe he should of won the AMA.
