4. The video was filmed up in NH.

AFSC set up the boots exhibit for the video the day before EYO came to Boston.

This is what EYO looked like after setting up on Boston Common:


And again in Copley Square:

5. That was great...

thanks for posting that...

I have always like Robert Cray...this makes me like him even more then ever.

It's great...but I have a feeling that the republican'ts will blast him and call him "anti-american"...just wait...

6. Hree's the words to that song, I just transcribed them

TWENTY
by The Robert Cray Band

when you're used up
where do you go
soldier

mother dry your eyes
there's no need to cry
I'm not a boy
it's what I signed up for

when your used up
where do you go
soldier

I can't take the heat
and I hardly sleep anymore
what did we come here for
standing out here in the desert
trying to protect an oil line
I'd really like to do my job
but this ain't the country I had in mind
they call this a war on terror
I see alot of civilians dying
mother sons fathers and daughters
not to mention some friends of mine
we were supposed to leave last week
promises they don't keep anymore
gotta fight the rich man's war

when your used up
where do you go
soldier

late in 2004
comes a knock at the door
it's no surprise
mother dry your eyes
mother don't you cry no no
someone told you a lie
yes they did
why oh why
momma don't you cry oh no
mother don't you cry

when your used up
where do you go
soldier
