“I can't think of a better way to get through to the younger generation about drunk driving than through music. It indeed can make a difference. It's fantastic that Illumina is taking this important initiative.”

"I applaud and support Illumina Records and these Boston artists for taking a stand! If you're gonna party - get a designated driver!! Remember the designated driver IS the life of the party!!"

"I'm pleased 95X is involved with this project. Music influences people and to make them aware of the dangers of drunk driving through music is an excellent way to get the message across. We can use the power of music to influence people to make the right choice and not drink and drive."

“The fact that Illumina is integrating local music scenes into this effort is very enlightening. Many times young people who are influenced by and who take part in a lifestyle surrounding rock music are faced with a choice about drunk driving. Any and all education that can empower youths to make the right decision is extremely valuable. On behalf of Real Rock 101one and Native Noise, I commend you for your efforts in drunk driving prevention awareness.”

"I'm very impressed with the Twin Cities Rockers for Life Project. It's great to see the involvement of area bands in spreading the word about the dangers of drunk driving. Music is a great way to reach out to today's youth. If this project saves the life of one family member or friend it's well worth it."

“I run Red Dirt Radio, an internet station, and also Skydog Music, a concert productions and artist development company dealing with Red Dirt and Southern Rock bands, but I've also been a Paramedic for nearly 30 years. Having a few drinks and listening to some tunes is a great way to unwind...but it comes with a responsibility: to be safe. I've witnessed the pain and tragedy of a good time gone horribly wrong, all because someone wouldn't step up and be the designated driver. I've filled too many body bags with both "hardcore rockers" and their innocent victims and watched their family and friends gather at the ER to hear the news. Remember: Have a good time...but live to rock again!"

"Anything that can prevent drunk driving is a positive in my mind.My 15 month old cousin was killed by a drunk driver, so this issue hits especially close to home. Thanks for creating awareness on a topic that affects us all"

"The Rockers for Life CD campaign is not only a showcase for local and regional bands, but a great way to try and help prevent drunk driving. Think about it — most bands perform in bars or venues where alcohol is sold. People need to give more thought into how they get home after a show. It’s a project geared toward music fans, for more than the music."

"The “Rockers and Hip Hop for Life” compilation CDs not only provides exposure for local musicians, it also creates awareness about the problems that arise from drunk driving. I applaud Illumina Records for this worthy cause."
