Happy Birthday Pete Seeger !!

          

I was there with so many other people at Madison Square Garden in New York, on Sunday, May 3rd to celebrate Pete's 90th birthday, along with supporting the work of his Clearwater dream.
Pete has always been an inspiration and a guiding force. The photos above are ones I took at gatherings of the People's Music Network over the years. That banjo photo in the middle is one of my favorites.
Here's a treat for you. My digital still camera also does audio. Here are two MP3 files. One is the finale of the show, including 20,000 people singing happy birthday to Pete. The other is of Bruce Springsteen, his words about Pete, and his appropriate song, "The Ghost of Tom Joad."
Enjoy!
