Peter Seeger died today. It's also sad for me when influential protest singers pass on. "Where Have All The Flowers Gone?" My dad used to sign that to me as a little boy whenever I had trouble falling asleep. I just appreciate singers who use the power of music to change peoples minds to do things that they didn't think were possible. Very Cool.

I just really respect singers & performers who use the microphone & their instrument as a platform to address larger picture issues. When you become famous, you can either lay low & collect millions toeing the status quo or shake things up & speak for the voiceless. I am grateful that Pete Seeger chose option #2. RIP Mr. Seeger. You will be missed sir & thank you for your contributions.
