Ever wonder why this era is not generating great protest songs like there
were in the 60's?  Wonder no more.  Two of the foremost protest singers in
North America come to the Bulgarian/Macedonian Educational and Cultural
Center on Sunday, October 25th at 7:30PM.  Anne Feeney and David Rovics
conclude a month long tour of the midwest with a show at this intimate
performance venue in West Homestead.

David Rovics is called the "musical version of Democracy Now!" by none
other than Amy Goodman.  Author Jeremy Scahill is a big fan of this modern
musical journalist.  One of the most prolific songwriters at work today,
David Rovics travels the world and observes first-hand the history-making
events that are the substance of his songs.  From the Middle East to
Japan, Australia to Copenhagen, David Rovics blends his encyclopedic
knowledge of history and skilled craftsmanship as a writer and musician to
provide a unique and challenging look at today's headlines.  Often
pointed, sometimes hilarious, but always brilliant, David's songs are sung
by activists around the world.

Joining Rovics is one of Pittsburgh's working-class heros, Anne Feeney.
Feeney celebrates 40 years of activist music this month.  Her first public
appearance was October 15, 1969 at a "Moratorium to End the Vietnam War"
at the University of Pittsburgh. A fixture at every peace, feminist,
environmental and labor rally here during the 70s, 80s and 90s, Feeney now
takes her critically-acclaimed music around the world.  Her songs are also
featured in several documentary films and performed by many artists,
including Peter, Paul and Mary.

This musical collaboration is electric, and Sunday's show will be
provocative, hilarious, inspiring, entertaining and energizing.
