The May Day show began with Pete Seeger's version of Roll on Columbia, appropriate for someone who dedicated his life to social equity. More meaningful in today's environment. Also included a song by Seattlite Judy Collins, who celebrated her birthday today. Plus a duet by WIll Worden to celebrate his birthday yesterday.
And a much of other stuff, including some grunge origin bands such as Green River and Mother Love Bone in the third, usually raucous hour.
