To round out a long week of protesting Bush, the war, IMF, and hurricaines a coalition of cross-genre rockers and rappers are holding a massive free festival down at the Washington Monument on Saturday. Hosted by everyone’s favorite dissident Jello Biafra and featuring acts as diverse as Joan Baez to the Bouncing Souls the Operation Ceasefire concert promises to go down in US protest history as a monumental day.
Or at the very least a great day of free tunes.

2:30 PM – Living Things
3:18 PM – Joan Baez
3:50 PM – Wayne Kramer and the Bellrays
