Peet Seeger will not be down for brunch

[ignerntbend]

If you were saving a little coffee and a few croissants and jam for Pete Seeger, don't bother. He's as dead as a door nail.

Is he any kin to bob?

He was kin to bob. Tried to severed the electric chords between the old bob and the new bob. Whatever that means. RIP Pete Seeger. That's what this thread is about.

Flags at half mast? Hanoi Jane to speak at his funeral?

 

[Cohiba]

To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose under Heaven....



Loved the Bryds rendition of this song.

Punk rock may really be dead now. R.I.P Pete. Just before he got the first Woody Guthrie Prize, too.



Article said he was chopping wood ten days ago. What an absolute badass.

I thought it was Not down for breakfast? Or is it because he was real old and probably preferred brunch to breakfast.

I am no fan of his politics, but he was a good man who had a utopian vision of the world. He truly believed that if we (mankind) could sincerely work together for a better world, we could create that better world. He was an advocate for peace and loved his fellow man.

I don't agree with his stances on a lot of issues, and I believe his opinion of man was far too high. We are too rotten a species to ever live in harmony.

He also wrote a lot of great songs, both protest and otherwise.
