Steve Earle: standing up, speaking out

Advertisements [?]

Saw Steve Earle & The Dukes last night -- they opened with "Amerika v. 6.0", which is of course my song.

He spoke for a long time about how we need to wake up, do our homework, and connect the dots from the Calif. recall to the Texas redistricting to the 2000 election. He also mentioned (as his heroes) Patrick Leahy, for speaking out against John Ashcroft, and George Ryan, for following his conscience.

Amazing concert, amazing guy. We need more like him on our side, speaking out.
