Tommy and Ken of the Squirrel Nut Zippers appeared for Ned Lamont last night in New Haven, and today they're appearing for Chris Murphy (I spoke with Tommy and he said there was one mic and another plugged into the wall — he says their touring conditions may be a bit remedial but they are determined to have a good time.) 

Please stop by in the comments and thank them for taking the time to do this.  It was a huge morale booster and the spirit of the show was so hopeful, so good natured and fun it was infectious.  TRex was there also and will no doubt have more tonight, but I'm thinking we need more of this for '08.  A lot more.  How about you?
