The prototype of the Jonas Brothers, the Hanson Brothers, walked barefoot through Times Square in New York City recently for their ‘Take the Walk’ tour. I wonder if 27-year old Isaac, 25-year old Taylor and 22-year old Zac were aware of how many germs there are on the ground. Anyway, while working on their 2007 album ‘The Walk’, the singing trio made trips to Africa in an effort to understand the poverty and disease that grips the continent. That’s where the ‘Take the Walk’ tour comes in as a charity that brings attention to the poverty and AIDS epidemic in Africa through simple actions from individuals everywhere.
