Ben Harper and a Presidential Hopeful

Ben Harper is no political slacker. Unlike so many of his music industry contemporaries, he understands that he plays a very small role in the world as a whole, that he is not as important as the causes and undertakings he can support. It was in this vein that, it has been announced, Harper took to the stage on Friday, June 22, 2007 to perform a handful of songs in support of Senator Barak Obama as a presidential candidate. The tickets sold for $100 general admission and $250 for premium balcony seating, with VIP access topping out at $500. The event was wholly enjoyable by those who attended and raised a pretty penny for Obama’s presidential run.

More importantly than bringing his incredible music to the masses, however, Ben Harper showed the world that it is right to make a stand for what you believe in, and to use what resources you were given in life, to make a point and to make a difference.
