video "Murderers Are My Life"

A video of my one man show, 'Murderers Are My Life", is now on the net and can be downloaded. It runs an hour and forty minutes. The price of the download is a pittance and a dollar of each download goes to Jail Guitar Doors, a prison rehab organization which tries to help humanize miscreants and give hope to the innocent, the unfortunate, the unlucky. The San Diego Press-Heritage said of "Murderers" "A thoroughly moving experience, and one of the best one man shows I've ever seen." Can be downloaded at www.dsmilton.com

—Gina Nahai, Cry of the Peacock, Moonlight on the Avenue of Faith, Caspian Rain
