David Rovics with Tim Rakel opening the show. This is an early event 
that starts @ 7pm.

"David Rovics has been called the musical voice of the progressive 
movement in the US. Amy Goodman has called him "the musical version of 
Democracy Now!" Since the mid-90's Rovics has spent most of his time on 
the road, playing hundreds of shows every year throughout North America, 
Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Japan. He and his songs have 
been featured on national radio programs in the US, Canada, Britain, 
Ireland, Italy, Sweden, Denmark and elsewhere. He has shared the stage 
regularly with leading intellectuals (Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn), 
activists (Medea Benjamin, Ralph Nader), politicians (Dennis Kucinich, 
George Galloway), musicians (Billy Bragg, the Indigo Girls), and 
celebrities (Martin Sheen, Susan Sarandon). He has performed at dozens 
of massive rallies throughout North America and Europe and at thousands 
of conferences, college campuses and folk clubs throughout the world. He 
has loads of MP3's available for free download on his website, 
www.davidrovics.com, along with CDs, links, etc. More importantly, he's 
really good. He will make you laugh, he will make you cry, and he will 
make the revolution irresistible."
