Rock Stars for Bernie

Jon Fishman has finally joined Twitter. The Phish drummer revealed the news today, along with his new handle: @jfishman600. Fishman decided to take the plunge out of a desire to express his support for Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, who is also currently an Independent Senator from Vermont. As of now, the drummer’s only Twitter activity has been a retweet of Sanders’ call for earlier debates.

A post on Fishman’s personal Facebook page reads:

That Bernie should hold his rallies in the desert and call it "Bernieman." Somebody added, "And Phish can play." So this is right on time.

Burning Man 2015

Burning Man 2015 takes place August 30 – September 7, 2015 in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada. Participants join in the effort to co-create Black Rock City, a temporary metropolis dedicated to art and community.

Burning Man isn’t your usual festival. It’s a city wherein almost everything that happens is created entirely by its citizens, who are active participants in the experience.

It's a segment we "Clean for Geners" missed in the 60's and that was a profound mistake. Bernie's pragmatic populism is very,very inclusive.
