Is anyone else watching Farm Aid on CNN?

I’ve really enjoyed it so far. I wondered how much the current disaster in the WH would be mentioned. Not much but some.

I love Dave Matthews, and can’t wait to see Dylan (DYLAN of all people!) and Willie, who I hope is doing well. Art and music are what we’ve got these days. They feed us. It’s why they’re on the chopping block.

I know he’s old as hell but somehow the weathering suits him. I’d like to see him a bit better though.

CNN pissed me off by cutting off performances with drug commercials. They could do commercials during acts when they're rolling out & in equipment. Have it on the TV as well. Cutting off Dylan with a Skyrisi ad, pathetic CNN!
