Kerry-oke Fund Raising Rally In Nashville Tonight
Over 1000 Kerry/Edwards supporters came out tonight to see and hear Emmy Lou Harris, Rodney Crowell, Kim Carnes(Betty Davis Eyes), John Kay(Born To Be Wild), Nanci Griffith and several other notables take requests for $$ so the Music Row Democrats can buy more TV time for our self produced ad which started running tonight statewide. Were not condsidered a target state that gets DNC funds so were doing it on our own. I'm feeling the love- it was a glorious night. They got $1000. alone for Kim Carnes to sing Betty Davis Eyes!!

2. Groan...
Pun damage.

Ooh, Nanci Griffith! I loved "It's a Hard Life."

I wonder where They Might Be Giants is playing. I hear the Johns are part of the musical movement for Kerry too. John cubed.

Sleeep. Need sleeeep.

Some really high powered industry movers and shakers are behind this group. Nanci Griffith sang "From A Distance" and sang the line"God Is Watching Us" in 4 or 5 languages. It was very moving

6. Nanci Griffith is so cool.
"Trouble in the Fields" always brings tears to my eyes. :cry:


There's a book up on the shelf about the dust bowl days,
And there's a little bit of you and a little bit of me in the photos on every page.
Now our children live in the city and they rest upon our shoulders:
They never want the rain to fall or the weather to get colder.

And all this trouble in our fields,
If this rain can fall, these wounds can heal.
They'll never take our native soil.
But if we sell that new John Deere,
And then we'll work these crops with sweat and tears.
You'll be the mule, I'll be the plow,
Come harvest time, we'll work it out.
There's still a lotta love, here in these troubled fields.

You'll be the mule, I'll be the plow,
Come harvest time, we'll work it out.
There's still a lotta love, here in these troubled fields.
