In addition to Alan leading the infield set-up and special projects he's been pushing hard to introduce politics into the festival. He had a lot to do with bringing Ben Cohen this year and his campaign to stamp money out of politics. Ben got a chance to say a few things before Steve Earle's set and someone mistakenly started yelling something at him. Suddenly Steve came out from behind the curtain and pointed at the guy and yelled, "STFU and listen." Except he didn't just use the first letter of each word. He then stood back looking like a bouncer.
Then he played a great set mostly of blues from his new cd.
