New York Times Article - Pete Seeger's 90th birthday party

The link below is an article about a concert for Pete Seeger's 90th birthday party. This would have been a great concert to go to!
There is also a great DVD on Seeger that came out in 08, I believe that I saw through netflicks. Wonderful documentary.

Life is so precious

This morning, with the news of John Studdard's passing, I am listening to the tune Tim O'Brien wrote about the untimely passing of his older brother, "Time To Learn". I've posted it on my page, to share the sentiments that so many of us feel at this time. Please listen, but don't download. Of course, it is available for purchase (it's from his "Oh Boy!" album with Scott Nygaard and Mark Schatz).
