Wednesday Intermezzo: Call To Action

In this critical time before the election, HeadCount and Cinetic Rights Management have made the documentary film A Call to Action available for free on Snagfilms.com.  If you’re looking for more politics and music before the election, join Bob Weir, Trey Anastasio, Marc Brownstein, Bela Fleck and other HeadCount supporters as they reflect upon HeadCount, politics and the live music scene’s increased mobilization around causes.

Look out for the live performances by Trey Anastasio, The Disco Biscuits, and moe., as well as an awesome Christmas Jam moment with Warren Haynes and Trey rocking out an especially electric I Know You Rider.
