Fresh off the heels of what might have been the most spectacular edition yet, Louisville's Kentucky Exposition Center is probably still buzzing from the energy that filled every corner of the expanded festival grounds from September 11-14.

Bryan says in the video clip, calling for someone to open the gate separating the two men.

The coffee line at your favorite café is shorter, and shopping at Trader Joe's is, well, not as unpleasant as usual. Public transportation, like bus rides and BART trips, feels more manageable.

"As Gazans are deliberately plunged into catastrophic famine after two years of escalating violence it is urgent and obvious that artists use their platform to draw attention to the cause. To see an attempt to direct attention away from the genocide in order to maintain an apolitical image is immensely disappointing."
