A I’m not going to walk in with my guitar like I’m Ms. World Peace, but I’m very excited. Like anything, it’s got a huge force working against it, but I definitely support it and want to be more involved.
Q Are we on the verge of another Woodstock?
A No. One of the problems people have is when they try to repeat something that’s not repeatable, particularly that 10 years of our lives. Woodstock was an extraordinary perfect storm of music, politics and civil rights and it’s best not to try and repeat that, but see what comes next.
