The 91-year-old Pete Seeger has been awfully busy lately—recently we saw him get honored at Gotham Hall, and yesterday he spent some time protesting in Albany. The activist and musician was joined by actor Mark Ruffalo (video) and other opponents of hydrofracking. The group is trying to push the Senate to adopt a one year moratorium on the gas-drilling process in New York. Naturally, Seeger wrote a song for the occasion, titled, "God's Counting On Me"—listen below (and sing along! "drill baby drill turns to spill baby spill"):
You can hear that song live this Friday at City Winery—the legendary folk singer will be performing it at the Reclaim the Coast benefit event. Tickets are still on sale!
