The Echo Project has some high-minded ideals in addition to rockin’ out, and a lot of those get expressed in a place called the Echo System, a big white tent in the middle of the field given over to various activist causes, guided meditation, and short films.
Al Schnier of the band moe and Marc Brownstein of Disco Biscuits drew a SRO crowd into the tent to pitch Head Count, a project to get young people to register to vote. A little before that, there was a yoga session.
Then there was the musician Futureman, who spoke Saturday on the subject of Social Change Through Music. During the Q&A session, he gave an answer that included “Lord of the Rings,” string theory, the composer Richard Wagner, theosophy, Picasso, “Star Wars,” iPod ads and his hat, which was a pirate’s hat with a white feather plume, that was on a cosmic plain rarely visited outside a place like this.
