Reply #21: Quick words about the scene here.... [View All]

[demodonkey]

A big stage at one end of the field, with a scrim backdrop containing a giant photo of Martin Luther King and Lyndon Johnson (possibly when the VRA was signed, I can't see too well.) On the sides of the stage there are "teasers" of giant signs which say Rainbow/PUSH Keep the Vote Alive! Off stage left (right of audience) is a Jumbotron. Lots of booths from SEIU, Rainbow/Push, AFSCME, etc. Lots of yellow T shirts form UFCW and NAACP... also yellow signs from NAACP saying things like "Lift Every Voice and Vote" (I bought one of these to carry in the MArch). It is HOT... about 90-some but nice breeze. However my cell phone is so hot the darn keys wpn't work.

I am sitting on the field. Met lots of AAR fans and a few who want to join DU (no actual DUers). As yall know I saw Bob... I haven't run in to David Cobb yet, but he is here is here though! Randi Rhodes is supposed to be here but I haven't seen her (I really never met Randi before.)

Please forgive typos and mispelled words, it is bring sun and hard to see the computer screen...


Litttle Zion just sang and played the paino...CUTE and talented kid!
