US Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders held an event Rockin’ The Bern in Davenport, IA and Alice In Chains frontman William DuVall performed alongside a number of musicians with covers of Tom Petty’s “Won’t Back Down” and Bruce Springsteen’s “Born In The U.S.A.”
The singer said about Sanders: “For quite awhile now, I’ve had to listen to a lot of mean-spirited talk from people who do not agree with us, saying they want their country back. But, of course, by ‘back,’ they mean ‘backwards.’ The thing is, I don’t wanna go backwards. ‘Cause that’s one of the reasons why I’m here tonight — ’cause I’m ‘feeling the Bern’ and I wanna take it forwards.”
