Tom Morello (sp.)

Tedeschi Trucks Band

Government Mule

Perfect match to the candidate.

I also got jumped on Willie Nelson & Bruce Springsteen.

10 years ago, I would have suggested Arlo Guthrie, but he seems to have become a libertarian nutcase.

OK, here's one:

Holly Near.

She's been doing protest gigs from Mifflin St. 1969 to the Capital Square, 2011. (Madison references)

Have Billy sing some of the Woody Guthrie lyrics he helped make into song on the "Mermaid Avenue" cd.

Leonard Cohen and John Mellancamp off the top of my head.

Edit to add: Roseanne Cash's ex, who's name escapes me at this time (old timers disease).

He's Roseanne's ex.

Roseanne would be great too...and Emmylou Harris...and Gillian Welch.

for us 'oldsters'.

Bette Midler
Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young
Simon and Garfunkel
Carole King
KD Lang

This song of theirs from the mid-Eighties is still current:

The fact he's a GOP conservative would shake up quite a few people (on both sides of the aisle).

n/t.

Where the hell would you get that absurd idea?

Why these guys? No, they aint from around here, they are children from the slums of Paraguay and they play with trash, albeit reworked trash. If these children aren't the most inspirational thing you've seen today...well...go look for yourselves. I can only imagine the inspirational message Senator Sanders could weave using these kids about his immigration policy or his foreign policy with South America or even his thoughts on financial inequality. Posted here are two videos, the first describes these kids, the second is designed and performed by violinist/dancer/YouTube darling Lindsey Stirling featuring the Landfill Harmonic Orchestra. (Warning: guarenteed to moisten your eyes).

Drop Kick Murphys

"Convoy for Bernie" would be epic, though.

It'd be worth it just to see the look on Kris Jenner's face.

Wouldn't he run up on stage and grab the microphone?
