On Leno "This Machine Kills Fascists" -- Singer Tunstall
She had a huge sticker on her guitar that read "This Machine Kills Fascists". She followed the hate-speak Nazi on the show.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

6. that quote is from Woody's guitar . . . Pete's banjo says . . .
"This machine surrounds hate and forces it to surrender" . . . it runs around the outside of the head . . .

8. KT Tunstall is awesome!
She played guitar on the streets of Scotland for many years - but never gave up - always following the example of Sheryl Crow. KT didn't get a recording deal till she turned 30. Her debut album "Eye to the Telescope" sold 1 million CDs in Great Britain in 2005. It's a great album. Recommended! :)
