Million Musician March for Peace: Part 2

More keepin' Austin weird: On March 21, 2009, Instruments for Peace staged its annual Million Musician March for Peace. Scads of Austin's great musicians and supporters marched from the Texas Capital building down to the City Hall.The parade snaked through Austin's live music district and many participants and attendees of the South by Southwest Music Festival hit the streets to cheer the marchers on. This is part 2 of my coverage of the event: excerpts from the march and an exciting melding as the parade reaches City Hall and Carolyn Wonderland, Guy Forsythe and Shelley King join that marching band in a jumping version of "Down by the Riverside." Part 3 has more excerpts from the concert outside City Hall. Part 1 contains excerpts from the pre-march music at the Capital.
