Pete Seeger's grandson Tao Rodríguez-Seeger was leading on This Land is Your Land
Edited on Sun Jan-18-09 07:11 PM by MH1
Pete started off saying the words but the lead singing was done by the guy on his right, who was introduced by Bruce as Pete's grandson. But I didn't catch his name (at the time).

Anyway on the posts I've read here it seems like he's being ignored, and I just thought he should get some credit too!

Edited to add his name, found in wikipedia. :)

2. Thanks,
I just found that in wikipedia too.

He looks better with the beard, I think!

Must have been an incredible moment for him.

People should know his name. I'm glad that I know it now.

of the "evil commie" ( :sarcasm:) Pete forever. Sounds like his grandson has led a life steeped on the left also, according to the wiki entry. :D

Pete and Tao and Bruce and Company were sweet.
