Sing for Peace!
A Sing for Peace led and participated in by folk luminaries -- where
we SANG for an hour and a half -- no talking, no speeches, no
introductions -- nothing but song. Paul and I have always had a
policy for our concerts to let the songs speak for themselves. If it's
gospel, there will be no preaching, if it's a protest song (from the
1860's??!! -- yes we know some of them!) there will be no political
statements. We always want to bring joy to the listeners, to tell a
story with the music, not to foist our views on them. The Sing was
right along the same line, and for that reason it was pure joy for us.

Singing songs from the audience and at the mikes were Reggie
Harris, Holly Near, Arlo Guthrie, Pete Seeger's grandson (?? - no
introductions, so I don't know all the names), Sarah Lee Guthrie,
Tret Fure, Pat Humphries and Sandy Opatow (sp??), Kathy Fink and
Marcy Marxer, Ronnie Cox, Ken Whiteley, Pete and Maura Kennedy,
Lucy Blue Tremblay, Small Potatoes, Still on the Hill, John
McCutcheon, Si Kahn, and hundreds of others. A Spanish song was
sung, a group from Denmark sang, a French song was sung -- some
were beautifully crafted stories, and some were well-known songs
that we all joined in there -- everyone there was a singer.

After more than an hour of pure song we started singing Down By
the Riverside. When we came to I Ain't Gonna Study War No More,
everyone jumped up as one and started dancing and clapping. The
whole group then spontaneously danced and sang our way from the
Convention Center lobby into the 3-story Renaissance Hotel lobby
where part of the group sang their way up the escalators to the
second and third floors and circled the lobby until the hotel was
simply filled with a song of joy and hope for peace. I began with a
heavy weight of sadness as many of us wept, having been through
this before. Many were holding hands to buoy each other up as we
sang, and by the end, we were uplifted and ready to sing again for
the world.

Arlo Guthrie to perform in Decatur
http://news.mywebpal.com/news_tool_v2.cfm?show=localnews&pnpID=469&NewsID=451147&CategoryID=7026&on=0

I've always wondered whatever happened to that Mercedes.
This is the same Mercedes we're talking about, right?
I'm sure the Craig is long gone, so what kind of car audio system is in it now? Alpine? Bose? ???

Thanks for the info! I have that ad too!Didn't realize he was restoring it. He had told me some yrs ago he wanted to restore it but didn't have the time to do it. Glad he got it restored as it looked like a really nice car in the pics. I think he told me he paid around $5000 back then which was a deal in those days. He got the car cuz he liked it & it was an antique from the 50's, not to be uppity or anything. I'd love to see the restored car. I bet it looks neat. <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/smile.gif" width=15 height=15> He also used to own the car Elvis had in the movie Spinout but that one is long gone...

Does anyone know what year, and in what magazines, that Craig audio ad appeared?

It was in ROLLING STONE magazine. I think the ads were in there around 1975. I bought one with the ad in it a number of yrs ago at a used record store. It was a pretty neat ad! <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/smile.gif" width=15 height=15>
