Did y'all watch the rally on tv yesterday? No? Well, it was a pretty good time, let me tell you. Yusuf Islam and Ozzy Osborne and the O'Jays did an amazing mashup of train songs (Peace Train, Crazy Train, Love Train), and there was a giant puppet of Stephen Colbert, and John Legend and the Roots were the backup band. Oh! And Mavis Staples sang with Jeff Tweedy, and the Mythbuster guys had us doing the wave and measuring our collective jump on the Richter scale, and there was some pretty good comedy, too.
This is one of the more attractive photos my buddy Joonsik took of Contractor and I. We managed to find a pretty good spot about halfway (?) back (near sixth street) where the crowd actually wasn't shoulder to shoulder. My camera is still broken so I have nothing to really show for the day except an exhausted voice. And sanity, of course! Sanity won.
