I was there (just got back home a few hours ago), and it was fantastic! It's hard to put it into words because there were so many performers and so many songs, but there were some beautiful moments. Once I've gotten some sleep I might be able to give a better report.

But for those who missed it, I hear that the whole thing was filmed for later broadcast on PBS. So keep your eyes open for that (and I'm sure there will be a CD and a DVD too!)."

I am refreshing Eve G's post. I just read that PBS will be airing the May 3rd Pete Seeger show as a Great Performances special, starting this week and will be shown across the country in the next several weeks.

I will be watching.
