Thread Name: Clearwater Festival
Subject: RE: Clearwater Festival

I was in a smallish crowd (about 60 or so) who sang with Pete and Tao (grandson) Seeger at the Clearwater festival a few years ago. Got to meet Pete and Tao and they were the sweetest guys. The crowd sang with them into, of all things, a cell phone connected to David Crosby's hospital room. Cros was supposed to be singing with Pete that year, but had a liver attack. We sang "Southern Cross" into the cell phone to Cros and he was deeply touched.

Hey. politics or no, trad or no, it is a great time and a fine way to support a cause that so many people don't care about: cleaner waterways and more environmental conciousness.

BTW, I run my PC on carrot juice and a solar panel. I used to use a hamster on a wheel hooked up to a turbine, but the ASPCA busted me.

May The Road Rise To Meet You,
