An interview I did with the excellent new LA based magazine CANVAS REBEL was released today. 🙂 I gave this interview with my LA Sisters & Brothers heavy on my heart, & in my prayers from the recent LA FIRES Tragedy . ❤ ❤

I gave this interview two weeks ago as a followup of sorts to an interview I did with the awesome SHOUTOUT LA, this past September, that was very well received. 🙂 Link: https://shoutoutla.com/meet-billy-lamont-ny-based-american-poet-recording-artist-multi-media-performance-poet-has-appeared-on-national-television-a-number-of-times-toured-with-lollapalooza-several-times-has-three-boo/

The new interview was done while I was recovering & healing from a ER/Hospitol stay, followed by FLU A high fevers for a week, & then when I was overcoming relapsing with added Pnemonia, as I was resting/healing by the grace of GOD, so it feels a bit raw. I was desiring to do this interview for a while & then was only able to do it in this timing, because my needing rest & healing, cleared my busy schedule. 🙂 It is my hope that a few of the quick, essence thoughts I shared about imagination, wisdom, & recreation, can be seeds of inspiration & contemplation to readers, especially LOVED LA PEOPLE overcoming LA FIRES loss &  trauma.

This poem/song was inspired by creator DOMINCK “ZEKE” ZACCHEO. (The Video and Recital is a little raw because it was recorded as a selfie video, as Lamont recited it in one take spontaneously. I hope You enjoy it anyway!) BOOOOO!!! BAAAHAAAHA!!! :)!

THE GREAT SPIRIT HAND OF MIDNIGHT OIL IS UPON ME!!!!!!!! – PETER GARRET & I –

I Am Filled With Overflowing Joy That My Longtime, Loved Personal Friend PETER GARRETT Found The Time For An Intimate, Personal Chat With Me A Few Days Ago As Doing MIDNIGHT OIL Final Tour In Philadelphia, Previously NYC!!!
❤ ❤ ❤

PETER GARRETT Is A Rare, Shining Leader & Brilliant Artist Filled With THE GREAT SPIRIT!!! I Am Humbled & Honored To Have Him As A Close Personal Friend Since The 90s. PETER GARRETT, As The Frontman Of MIDNIGHT OIL, As AUSTRALIAN FEDERAL MINISTER OF ENVIRONMEMT & THEN EDUCATION, & As An Empathetic, REAL HUMAN, Follower Of JESUS, & LOVE FILLED MAJOR ACTIVIST For The ENVIRONMEMT, Now The Emergency Of CLUMATE CHANGE Reform, & Longtime Catalyst For FIRST NATION Indigenous PEOPLE HUMAN RIGHTS, & Somehow He Always Managed To Find Time For Me, & ALWAYS/CONSISTENTLY Has Extended REAL FRIENDSHIP & LOVE To Me. I Am Deeply Grateful For This & It Is Beyond
My Abilify, Or Words, To Express This.
❤ ❤ ❤

My Gratitude & LOVE For PETER GARRETT Is Immense!!! I AM GRATEFUL That He Has Been A Voice For Those Of Us Without A Voice – A Man Of PEACE & HUMAN RIGHTS Like The REVEREND MARTIN LUTHER KING JR – As Being The Frontman – “He’s Got The Moves Like Jagger!” 🙂! SOULFUL IMPRESSIONISTIC SPIRIT DANCER 🙂!!! Of ONE OF THE ALL TIME GREATEST OF THE GREATEST ROCK BANDS, RECORDING ARTISTS & LIVE PERFORMERS EVER – MIDNIGHT OIL!!!!!!!!! BRILLIANT!!! ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL & BRILLIANT!!! ❤ ❤ ❤

PETER GARRETT Has Kindly Showed LOVE & Affirmed Me By Writing A Cover Blurb For My Latest Book Of Poetry (Having A Lot Of Success) & A Previous One, Empowerimg & Magnifying My Voice Through The Years Helping Me So I Can Also Be A Voice For Everyday, We The People As Well, All Inclusively!!! PETER Is A Shining Light, Man Of Integrity & Character That Even Showed LOVE & Support To Me & My Son ZION, As I Was In Sort Of Survival Mode As Being A Single Dad (Sort Of) & Somewhat Alone In My Struggles.
But I Was Never Alone With GIOD Given Strengrh To Still Be A Leader For Others & Important Justice Causes & Innovate As A Poet As I Could, As A LOVE Filled follower Of JESUS, Somehow Leading Others With Ease & Grace Of GOD, On A Pioneering Loving Path Very Different Than Many Racists & Bullies Proclaiming To Be Christians. I Have Lived In A More Inspired & Focused On JESUS’ Words, “What You Do To The Least, You Do Unto Me,” Life So Far. I Was So Inspired By MIDNIGHT OIL’s Live Performance At Hammerstein Ballroom In NYC on Father’s Day That I Wrote/Organized/Performed A Poem The Next Day At THE MIC UNDER ST MARKS In NYC!!! 🙂!!! ❤ ❤ ❤

When I Had An Intimate, Personal Chat With PETER GARRETT A Few Days Ago It Also Meant A Great Deal To Me, & Was Affirming, Appreciated, Touching, & Humbling That Such A Rare, Great Spirit, Amazing Artist/Man Was Kind Enough To Passionately Mention Again How Much He LOVED My Latest Book & Poetry!!! 🙂!!! THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR GENEROUSITY PETER!!! I LOVE YOU BLOOD BROTHER!!! ❤ ❤ ❤

I Am Grateful & LOVE PETER GARRETT To My Core & Essence!!! I Praise YHWH, JESUS & THE HOLY SPIRIT For Him & May Every Blessing From GOD Be Upon PETER & His Family, Rob, Jim, & Martin Of Midnight Oil & Midnight Oil Families & Crew & The Amazing Powderrworkers Everywhere!!! ❤ ❤ ❤
