::: Obama Rally w/Ben Harper & Laura Dern
::: Civic Center Park
::: 10.25.08
Ok, so maybe he only played two songs, but Ben Harper’s heart was definitely in the right place with the support that he lent to the Obama rally this weekend. The performance was held on the eve of an Obama appearance to be held in the same park. I could be totally wrong, but I do believe that both songs are new ones that he may have written for the campaing. Regardless, the two songs spoke volumes despite the soft vocals and acoustic guitar.
