"In a coffee shop in a city, which is every coffee shop in every city, on a day which is every day/ I picked up a magazine, which is every magazine, and read a story, then I forgot it right away/ And they say goldfish have no memory, I guess their lives are much like mine/ And the little plastic castle is a surprise every time/ And it's hard to say ...

Springsteen honors Seeger at 90th birthday concert

A star-studded medley of musical guests played tribute to Pete Seeger at a benefit concert for the legendary folk singer's 90th birthday.

Bruce Springsteen, Dave Matthews, Emmylou Harris, Ani DiFranco and John Mellencamp were among the 40 musicians performing in Madison Square Garden for the Sunday night show, a benefit to raise awareness for Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, an organization Seeger started to preserve and protect the Hudson River.

A lone light shone on Seeger as he opened the show playing a flute solo called 'Menomonee Love Song.' As the lights came up, they revealed the outline of a sloop, fitting for an event dubbed the Clearwater Concert after the organization's vessel, the gaff sloop Clearwater.
