Activist folk-rock group Crosby, Stills & Nash is currently entertaining the the Occupy Wall Streeters camping out the Zuccotti Park in Manhattan's Financial District, MarketPlace Radio's Heidi Moore Tweeted.
We're not sure if Stephen Stills is there though.
According to the Occupy Wall Street website, David Crosby and Graham Nash were the only ones scheduled to play a set of protest-themed songs to the anti-corporate demonstrators today at 3 to 4 p.m.
Here are some pictures of what's going on.

Love CSN, hate their politics. They were almost booed off stage when they last played Cincinnati because of their political rants.
I can smell the weed burning all the way here in Upstate.
I didn’t know they were still together (well, three of them, anyway.)
Play ‘Teach Your Children’....
The ‘code’ that held our society together is busted.
The Searching For Relevance Tour.
1%ers trying to rekindle their fame.
They should do a nationwide tour with ticket prices that pay for expenses only!
I double dog dare em!
Commie, Shills, for Cash.
CSN did quite well in ‘Capitalist America’. Did they give their albums away for free? Without recording companies they would be simple street minstrels.....had some great songs BTW...
Don’t eat the brown acid!
That’s the best idea I’ve yet heard for clearing the park.
Hey let’s get CSN to play for ‘em.
I’m sorry, loved them back in the day, love their old stuff still today, but having heard some of their recent efforts .... I doubt I’d attend even a free show.
I’ve always hated their hippie “music”, every single song. In particular, “Ohio” was a vile piece of leftist trash. Tex Beneke, Roger Whitaker and Vaughn Monroe are my kind of musicians not a trio or quartet of unkempt, filthy anti-American lowlifes.
At least they’ve had the sense to drop Neil Young, who whines like a liberal, rather than singing.
Must be terrible to spend your life always trying to relive the glory days of your youth. Like Al Bundy and his four touchdown game at Polk High.
They made mullions employed by the largest corporations and media conglomerates.
I was always a big fan of CSN&Y. Especially Y. I still am. I love the music.

Episode 902
“DIE HIPPIE, DIE!”
Written by
Trey Parker
[An elderly woman’s home. Cartman rings her doorbell, and she
answers it. Cartman is dressed in an orange hazmat suit and is
carrying a tank of something on his back]
CARTMAN
Hello, ma’am. I’m working to clean up
the neighborhood from parasites. Do
you mind if I take a quick look around
your house? I’m afraid you may have
hippies.
ELDERLY WOMAN
Hippies?
CARTMAN
Yeah, they’ve been poppin’ up all over
the neighborhood lately. Ms. Nelson
next door had seven hippies in her basement;
they usually live in colonies. Hm,
I don’t like the sound of that. Could
I take a look in your attic?
[The attic. He opens the door and looks in. He gets out a flashlight,
turns it on, and looks around again. He stops after a few seconds.]
CARTMAN
Oh yeah, boy. Take a look at this, ma’am.
See that? Hippies.
ELDERLY WOMAN
Oh my.
CARTMAN
These are what we call the uh giggling
stoners. Pretty common form of hippie,
usually found in the attics. Problem
is, if you see one hippie, there’s probably
a whole lot more you’re not seein’.
Uh, whe-where’s the backyard.
[The backyard. The elderly lady opens the door and Cartman walks
out onto the back porch]
CARTMAN
Yep, that’s what I thought. See that?
You’ve got a drum circle in your backyard.
ELDERLY WOMAN
Oh, well they showed up a few days ago,
but I didn’t think they were hurting
anything.
CARTMAN
Yeah. You know, I had a guy in Jackson
county. He had a little drum circle
in his backyard. It turned into a drum
circle four miles in diameter. You get
a few hippies playing drums and next
thing you know, you got yourself a colony.
ELDERLY WOMAN
Oh dear.
[back inside the house]
ELDERLY WOMAN
Oh, well, so, so what do I do?
CARTMAN
Well, your attic could be so we can
fumigate with polymerethane. The drum
circle we’re gonna have to gas. *******it!
HIPPIE 1
Whoa, how did I get here? Man, I’m
so high.
CARTMAN
*****mn hippie!
HIPPIE 1
Whoa, dude!
CARTMAN
Get out of here!
HIPPIE 1
Not cool! What’s up?!
CARTMAN
Ma’am, I need to clear out your giggling
stoners and your drum-cricle hippies
RIGHT NOW, or soon they’re gonna attract
something much worse!
ELDERLY WOMAN
Ooooo.what’s that?
CARTMAN
The college know-it-all hippies.
GUARD
You can’t go in there!
CARTMAN
Please, I have to talk to you all right
now!
MAYOR MCDANIELS
Kid, we’re have a city council meeting.
CARTMAN
Mayor, something very big is happening,
and if you all don’t give me a moment
of your time, there may be no more South
Park to council over!
RANDY
What are you talking about?
CARTMAN
I’m talking about the end of all life
as we know it. For the past several
days I’ve been... noticing a steep rise
in the number of hippies coming to town.
At first I thought maybe it was just
a coincidence. Then I saw this...
Three new drum circles have sprouted
up here, here, and here. They’re all
growing in diameter, at a rate of two
hippies per hour. What this means...
is that the hippies are conglomerating.
They’er thriving, if you will. I think
that they’re setting up for a... . hippie
music festival.
LINDA
A what?
CARTMAN
Ti’s, it’s simple science. Look: When
hippies start to nest in a new area,
it draws other hippies in. With the
right weather conditions and topography,
it can lead to a music festival. One
that last for days, even weeks. Reggae
on the River, Woodstock, Burning Man,
they will all pale in comparison to
what we’re looking at now. In my professional
opinion... I think we’re looking at
a full-blown hippie jam festival the
size of which we’ve never seen.
MAYOR MCDANIELS
Kid, what the hell are you talking about?
CARTMAN
I know hippies. I’ve hated them all
my life. I’ve kept this town free of
hippies on my own since I was five and
a half. But I can’t contain them on
my own anymore. We have to do something,
fast!
COUNSELOR MACKEY
Uh, Eric, we’re, we’re talkin’ about
potholes right now, m’kay.
CARTMAN
It’s not potholes you need to worry
about. It’s potheads. I know what these
people are capable of.
MAYOR MCDANIELS
Johnson, get him out of here.
CARTMAN
What are you doing?! You have to listen
to me! You can’t sweep this problem
under the rug! The town is in serious
danger!
