Madison Rally

I'm working on getting a picture from this morning's rally up. Its amazing, 100,000 plus people showed up in a town of 300,000. The Boss, Dave Grohl, and John Kerry. Couldn't have asked for a better set.

Update: Salon.com has an article on the Madison rally. A great article and a great picture of the Boss and the future president.

When he was done, Springsteen reached for his guitar and leaned into "No Surrender," the song that opens every Kerry campaign rally. As autumn leaves fell around him, Springsteen reinvented the song. The anthemic rock 'n' roll song became a meditation on promises made and hopes held tight, and he dedicated it to John Kerry.

The largest crowd -- ever, for anything -- in Madison's history exploded in applause. When Kerry took the stage a few minutes later, he fed on the energy.
