...Gore and Lieberman's favorite band was more likely the Beatles than his own Bon Jovi, announced their choice. The three teamed up on a powerful rendition of John Lennon's 1968 political proclamation "Revolution."

Their debut CD, a raucous collection of hill-country standards called Shake Hands with Shorty, is generating ecstatic reviews, and though purists complain that the Allstars play adulterated blues, most folks in north Mississippi (and on college campuses) aren't interested in museum-ready music. They'd rather dance...
...memorials are not only education sites; they are also, at a primal level, burial places--"a communal site of memory," says Linenthal. The chairs at the Oklahoma City Memorial contain what is often called the presence of absence. To Linenthal, the new memorials are "places of civic transformation" as well; one should come away changed.
