21. Very cool. I saw him sing "Carry On" at a memorial service for Mario Savio at UC Berkeley in 1996.

At about 01:53:15, he sings "Carry On" (very appropriate for a memorial service, especially for Mario Savio):

Carry On
Oh, when our struggle's over and we all are free,
When the new day's dawnin', think of me.
It's been a long time comin' but I won't be there,
When you see the sun risin' think of me.
Oh, think of me and carry on!
Oh, think of me and carry on!

And when the storm clouds gather and you've lost your way
When you need a light to guide you, think of me.
And though you may grow weary from your work each day
If you need a hand to help you, think of me.

Oh, think of me and carry on!
Oh, think of me and carry on!

Oh, when our struggle's over and we are all free,
When the new day's dawnin', think of me.
It's been a long time comin' but I won't be there,
When you see the sun risin', think of me.

Oh, think of me and carry on!
Oh, think of me and carry on!

And when the storm clouds gather and you've lost your way
When you need a light to guide you, think of me.
And though you may grow weary from your work each day,
If you need a hand to help you, think of me.

Oh, think of me and carry on!
Oh, think of me and carry on —
And carry on!
